From people who came through it
“If you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are in 2023. For me it was my old job I can not do now. I went on holiday in the summer and actually relaxed. It's slow, but it does come back.”
Tobe · been through adjusting to a disability“I was right where you are a few years back. A prosthetic that rubs. That was my life. Yesterday I booked a holiday.”
brook_cloud73 · 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.”
green_rose · been through adjusting to a disability“Eighteen months ago I was exactly where you are. Losing sight in one eye, every single day. My kids say I'm back. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. From someone who gets it.”
