Shaman, Five years ago I walked a path similar to yours. Thankfully, my valley wasn't as deep as yours and I suffered less than your experience. I was 65 at the time. Some therapy was found to be helpful for sure. Exercise and regular activity helped regain balance and strength. Now, 5 years later that treatment has proven to have been successful. I am still here and have ability to be active and to enjoy life. Strength, balance, flexibility, are not what they once were but I'm 5 years older too. There is much that I still can do with fairly rigorous physical requirements. I've been blessed. Hang in there and be active. Healing does happen.
