I didn't even get this thing until I was 39, and had a brilliant and awesome career. This knocked me out of the game, and here I am eight years later looking at my resume and the things I used to be able to do.
So I do feel angry about it, I feel robbed. Although I have an awesome family with 4 young women and a supportive husband, it doesn't seem fair. I've looked at all the people who worked UNDER me move up the corporate ladder, and here am I sitting home taken out of the rat race. So yes I do look back in anger (The Oasis song, lol!); and feel that this is a bitter pill to swallow. I cry over it sometimes. But who ever said life was fair? (It's not, is it!)
