Hello Momof4

For me acceptance was the hardest to come to terms with. I live with full body RSD/CRPS with some organ involment. It was hard at first and I fought it all the way. I didn't want to be dependant on meds and I just wanted my life back.
Understand we can not allow ourselves to be defined by our condition. You are a wonderful person who still has something to give. Some days are hard and you want to quit but you can't. You may have to tell your family today is a day I need to take it slow. It's not a good day but it will pass and tomorrow will be better.
If you don't have a personal relationship with God now is the time to visit a local church. Every day I ask God for him to cover me with his peace that passes all understanding. I am telling you it's a wonderful peace. It took me a couple years to accept my condition and admit I couldn't do this alone. I have some tough days but they pass. PM me if you want to talk.
Take care,
Sherrie
