Good recommendations, Wanttobesurfing, for dealing with the compassionate attitude toward one's self-as-is, in the present moment.
And moments onward ... through time ... and, yes, one day we realize,
as your example, "Oh. I'm bending over to tee up a golf ball. I remember when I couldn't do this. Okay. I am better."
Patience with one's self is a Big Lesson in all of this for each one of us.
And, believe me, andy55, I know how tough that can be. It certainly was for me, until I absolutely had no choice but to 'accept what is, today' and work within varying daily capacities & capabilities.
It's good to know that there are lots of others [here] who do know & do understand what you're going through; those who are highly knowledgeable in the current science, medical research info, nutritional, emotional & mental aspects, along with the approaches to getting back into physical exercise/activity.
Hang in there, andy55. We're with you.
