I have no explanation for the golf , but I can identify with your change in interests. I used to read a lot of fiction, sometimes sitting down with a book and a bowl of popcorn and not getting up until I finished the last page. I can't focus well enough now to follow a plot, so I read almost exclusively nonfiction, and I'm always reading a bunch of books at the same time. I used to dance a lot before I got sick, and I didn't care who was watching or what they thought. Now I don't even go into my own yard unless I'm sure there are no neighbors nearby. The disease has definitely changed who I am over the years.

My husband doesn't really like this, but when I refer to activities I used to participate in before I got sick, I say "Back when I was alive..."
