I am told by new friends who hear my age, " wow you don't look 57!" but I feel physically like I'm 80. The stiffness & pain are occasionally so intense I want to go to the ER for morphine.
I told the neuro I am scared I'll end up in a WC...his response was that he and DH "two bald guys" won't let that happen. But when I hurt so much & feel like I can't walk another step, I think to myself, " my 91 yr old FIL can't walk anymore...am I headed that way?" and I look at myself in the mirror and wonder what woman DH sees when he tells me that I am so pretty...
