As for looking forward, I'd promise you the world, but we both know life will be very tough, remember though your partner, and you mention a toddler, yours ? Well they become your reason to cope, your chance to be happy at least most of the time, I'm dying, there's no way out, I'm only 52, and I hate it all, I hate my body, but it is all I have, No spare parts, No way to change things,
