Hello @maid08 Hope you OK. Just reading your post. I can understand if you are in pain and try to rest much as possible.
Do you have support and essential numbers in case you are ill. Just a thought.
I have my diary to put them in, close at hand.
Small steps. I know it is not easy at the minute.
I think of using a diary good idea. I note down my aims and goals if I can for the week. Always use it for planning and then I do not forget anything.
Lately forgetting a lot of things. Constant reminders helps.
Hope you keep safe, nice to talk to you.
Have a great time at your grandchilds party

I think a diary is a great idea, when you have pain or difficulty every day it can be hard to recognise changes and a diary is a good way to keep track.
As @thespiceman says, it is also a good way to plan your week and get any goals down there too!
