Hey there! I'm glad you found encouragement in my words... that's what I'm here for!! It is super important to hear when you're going through a confusing time. Now that I think about it - the private FB group I'm referring to may just be for Florida Pain Rehab graduates. We received info about the FB group called, "Living The C', with our packet on our final day. Which PRC did you graduate from? Rochester, I think you mentioned. I recommend contacting them and asking.

I think the best answers your PRC team can give you, or would give you, is to stick to the principles of the program no matter what is thrown your way. It is a solid foundation to keep progressing with. I've got two kids in their 20's and although they have seen me go through "my stuff" they have not gone through these degrees of chronic pain or conditions themselves. If they did, I would offer empathy, with a little tough love, and help educate them. Who is in your corner as a support system?

Do you mind explaining more about your paralysis? How are you affected by it? Has any doctor told you it is permanent?
