I have been quite physically ill recently and have asked myself many imes how people deal with sudden accidents where their bodies need to basically be re-build? How do people deal with the severe pain everyday after a bad burn or skin graft? How do we deal with a broken ankle with pins and a staff infection and 5 months with no income?
Yeah, I quess I have figured out the mental health stuff as I go but this medical stuff is a big question to me. I feel so at the mercy of the docs and hospitals. That is perhaps the main issue here, powerlessness and pain.
I learned that I will NEVER go to my local hospital for anything more serious than stitches again.
I learned that we need to really treat the whole self. I am wondering other's thoughts on these issues? I seem to have fallen into a new world and I don't know it well from my perspective.
