It is when you discover that this is "the rest of your life" that it becomes more difficult - so if you know that you have the capacity to go home if you should ever decide to do so then it is easy to manage.
Best thing is to keep yourself busy, go out in the community - either a job or volunteer work, expect nothing but take what comes, think of it as an adventure. Good luck.

Thank you Quoll
That is the most pragmatic advice I have had ... the hubby agrees with you entirely. I have to keep my head in check. Thank you.
