I sure understand how you are feeling, and I'm glad you bring it up.
These pain conditions that we each have been left to battle can certainly bring on sadness, depression, hopelessness, etc. It's so important to be able to talk about it with those who really understand. These are feelings we must be able to get a grasp on.
Many people have compared it similarly with losing a loved one and the steps of grief that we must go through. Our livelihood has suffed a great blow.
It's a very hard place to be in. I'm still struggling with the acceptance part too.
Having this forum to come to has been a Godsend and the people here are wonderful, especially when it comes to lifting one another up.
This certainly isn't the end-all for us. It doesn't mean we have to shut the door on the things we love to do. We just have to make some adjustments and carry on the best we can. There are many things that still bring us joy, and we never know what might be right around the corner. New opportunities perhaps, or some breakthru in medicine.
My new grandson has opened up an entire universe of joy that I never knew could exist!
Better days are ahead, hang on to that hope ok?
There's still a lot to live for ....
