The book – Living Through Personal Crisis is a great read for those experiencing loss or crisis. Quoted from the book is: “When lifelong physical impairment must be borne, for whatever reason, everything changes. The loss of normal sight … is very painful. The loss of part of oneself may be even more difficult than the loss of a loved one. One loves oneself somehow just a little more than almost somebody else. Life can be rewarding again but it must become so in a different way. A drastic or severe physical change requires a new self-definition; one’s self undergoes change. The idea that learning and personal growth could come from our loss is an almost disgusting idea while we are hurting” Your thoughts?
