I'm not sure how old you or others are in this discussion but, one things for sure with me in "wanting my old life back", is the fact that I've been disabled since age 46, am now 50 and I desperately want to be able to be an involved, active grandparent!! That matters most to me. My son's wedding should have been TODAY but will be next year because of Covid. I want grandbabies and it really makes me mad and breaks my heart that my malfunctions create me to be a whole new person and live an entirely different life that is extremely limited. Ughh...sorry, had to get that pity party out.

@rwinney Oh Rachel, I feel for you. So many happy things can be taken for granted when we are well. I do not think there is a person on earth that works harder than you to be the best you can be. You will be a fine Grandparent some day. You may have an alternative style, but you will find a way. Why? Because you are RACHEL!!!! Love to you, Lori

Wow @rwinney. Your pity party is more specific now. And you have a mission, to have and enjoy your grandchildren. I salute you and choose to participate in your mission.
It just so happens that our adopted granddaughter and her friend are here for the weekend. I was a bit nervous because of course, I want everything to be perfect. Unbelievable how joyful this experience is becoming. You just have to trust your body to at least be supportive and keep the pain down.
Como Siempre Rachel. I support your efforts. Please consider changing extremely limited to somewhat limited. There, that’s better. I am going to find a picture. Stay right there.
I'm back....these are my two adoptees for the weekend. They are the perfect grandchildren.....love the pets and then the people.
I know I will pay the price for this adventure.....I am actually in the kitchen and cooking.
So....Monday and Tuesday will be payback days.
Be content and at ease.
Chris.
