It won't be long before you look back and realize just how much you really have accomplished.
Thanks for the support, plgerrard.

I'm already living with only so many physical 'spoon' limitations (google spoon theory) everyday so time management is already ingrained. It's just so frustrating that now I have to worry about yet ANOTHER permanent health issue and this one is more insidious than the arthritis-related ones.
