From people who came through it
“Hello from the other side of it. I've been there. For me it was in 2023. The worst part was the house needing a ramp and a wet room. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It's slow, but it does come back. Be gentle with yourself.”

brook_cloud73 · been through adjusting to a disability“For whoever is where I was: I've been there. For me it was two years ago. An amputation below the knee, every single day. I laugh properly again. It doesn't stay this heavy.”
femi_quiet · been through adjusting to a disability“If you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it's easy. The first few months were the worst of my life. But I'm writing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad and my nurse specialist has been more useful than the consultant, if you have one ask for their number, go slowly.”
