I don't think I can address what I read between the lines here so I'll consider it a conversation. I think that we are always the center of our universe metaphorically speaking. How else could it be? When we die there is no more universe for us. Given the choice I hope to die quietly. Not until all resources and possibilities are exhausted... except radiation and chemotherapy. I'd never go that far.
I hope you can hang on until you find a resource that works for you.
