My lifestyle has changed dramatically. I exercised, hiked and played tennis. I baked and cooked. I was very social.

Physically, I have had to adjust to using a rollator and an electric wheelchair when I am out.

Depression and moving forward changed my friendships. No one's fault, I just cannot join in and some friends were friends because of tennis or hiking, etc.

It is what it is and I have made the changes I needed to give myself a quality of life. No one can do that but me.

The dark side is always there, I just choose the light side 90% of the time.
