I can imagine how much going to Dr.s appt meant to you. The first few visits are so important for both you and the Dr. To have these stumbling blocks thrown at you without warning sent you into a tail spin. But you are not totally useless.

I have daughter in law living in the DC are who will not ride the train or bus (2 most used modes of transportation). She actually shops only at places within walking distance of their apartment.

As difficult as it may be at this moment breathe deeply in and out until calm has settled in. Then approach your problem as an opportunity waiting to be challenged.

Have you ever heard that old saying "there's more than one way to skin a cat" (for all you cat lovers that is not something I would even consider). Basically the saying means there is more than one way to solve a problem. It might take some work and not be obvious but it can be done.

Be kind to yourself. You are not useless.
We are here when you need us.
