βIf 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.β
βIf 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.β
βI was right where you are a few years back. A prosthetic that rubs. That was my life. Yesterday I booked a holiday.β
βTo anyone just starting this: I won't say it's easy. It's not. Losing part of yourself is a grief. But you find new ways. My kids don't care about my eye. They care about me. The prosthetic still rubs. I still cry sometimes. But I swim, I make playlists, I pray. You'll find your new normal, even if it takes a while. God willing.β
