[QUOTE="catapillar, post: 1375252, member: 32394"] Why me isn't something I've thought about. There's not going to be an answer so it doesn't seem particularly helpful or productive to ask the question. It probably is fairly common. It's a shock of diagnosis thing. It's perectly natural to be struggling to adjust to this thing that's been thrust upon you. It could be described as a grieving process: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance. I'm not saying your going to go through all the stages or anything, but it's a big thing to deal with and get your head around. And, rather unhelpfully, some of the questions just don't have an answer. You'll just have to figure out a way to be able to shrug your shoulders (or other appropriate hand jesture) and just get on with it. [/QUOTE]
