Thanks Kath! I think I was just feeling sorry for myself. I know my situation could be much worse. I loved my career and was good at my job. I know I have to focus putting closure on this chapter of my life. I'm at the age where most of my friends are retiring and they can't believe I still harboured hopes of returning to work. It probably is the control factor. It would have been nice to retire on my own terms.
I'm still working hard with my pdoc to try to find the right mix of meds. Right now I'm having to settle for "partial response" to meds.
I know what your daughter is feeling, as I had to jump through all the hoops and the red tape they throw your way. It is hard to do when you're ill. I sincerely hope that she gets the peace of mind of knowing she has some sense of financial stability. Society has a long way to go in proving the proper financial support in which a disabled person can put their complete focus on treatment.
Thanks again for your support and hugs to you.
