@gwl PMR robs us. As an outdoor enthusiast hiking 7 miles a day, to some days barely making it out of bed the transition has been a mental game altogether. I see posts on here with the word “back” which will never return. Adapting mentally is the most important aspect of my healing, having a great attitude. Keep golfing even if your performance is embarrassing, find joy and humor. It’s helped me!

@clendenin well said…I try not to let PMR be the center of my life, rather life, with an aside of PMR….hard to achieve but worth it,
A quote from here somewhere.
“I grew to realize that my mind was not in charge, my body was.”
Lastly….
“my favorite, and now MOTTO for this last quarter “ Looking for medical-life balance in my golden years and it's elusive. I did not retire to have medical problems consume my waking hours.”
