[quote=Anonymous]I think personally it's finding and genuinely feeling gratitude for what remains in terms of what I can do rather than what I can't do, and finding joy in each day in some really basic way. I am glad that I can see the leaves have turned red on the trees and the light in the sky at daybreak. Very basic stuff. I have to qualify it with the fact that yes sometimes I am consumed by fear / depressed / despairing / contemplating my own death in different ways / etc. But not all the time. It's about cultivating a balance. I also find that it's easier to forget the health issue when I have significant pain relief. [/quote]
