To have the wonderful news of a baby joining your family is surely a sign life can go on, I'm sure that baby will bring you many moments of pure joy. Stay strong, I can empathise with you in so many ways, I've suffered chronic pain for well over 30 years, I'm fed up with it to my eye teeth, I'm over the side looks and rolled eyes from family members who should know better. Big hug to you
