Hey @mikej, checking in to see how you are doing. I know it can be difficult keeping positive while being ill and uncertain about one’s future, especially around the holidays.

I’m a very analytical type person and by necessity very independent. I’ve always found it best to keep my options open, learn as much as possible about the paths I can take, weigh the costs and benefits for my wellbeing, plan for effective outcomes, and act.

I took full advantage of my medical providers and their knowledge, along with my own research. I encourage you to do the same and remain hopeful and positive. And, continue to reach out to those of us on Connect who have been where you are.

Athena
