Barbara...I'm sad to hear of your pain. However, here among all these people you will find friends, people that truly care what you are feeling and just listen to what you have to say.
Living with physical limitations caused from pain seems impossible, but you will do fine. You are a strong person, look how far you've come. You keep taking things one step, even baby steps, one day at a time. I can't say it will ever get easier but that's why all these people are here...for each other.
I look forward to getting to know you and the things you enjoy...those things make life bearable...those tiny things we enjoy even when we are at our lowest.
Take care and feel better.
