Hi Paddy, I've been told I may have to do that at some point, I think the next re-check is in a yr or 2. & I have a pretty wide variety of significantly more severe issues, but I don't know if what I feel counts as feeling sorry for myself. What annoys me is that this body stops me from doing more & more, & causes me to be much less helpful than I used to be to friends, neighbors & anyone. If you're able to, maybe doing more will lift spirits & may also be a helpful distraction. & I went over all the details with the surgeon, so I know what that surgery means, & I can only imagine how challenging it is, but all we can do is keep fighting/forging ahead as best we can.
