Ed,

I've struggled with this question a lot since my accident. I can relate to you. We are a group that has plenty of time to think since our activities are so limited.

I found this and I keep reading it over and over.

"We must be willing to let go of the life we planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us." Joseph Campbell

I feel parts of me are forever changed. However, I can look back six months, three months, and see little parts of me coming back.

It's a longgggggggg process. It's the emotional equivalent of a twisty loop de loop roller coaster for me. Every day is different for me.

My neuropsychologist, which is great, advised me to get a hobby that doesn't highlight any of my disabilities. Huge help since I don't read, no tv, no movies, no music, no games. I do love looking at pictures. And reading here helps me cope but makes me sick.

I have no magic answer, but hope you find your peace, maybe a hobby, someone to email daily.

Peace, Jace
