Hello Moonstruck, my thoughts are entirely with you and also feel exactly what you are struggling with because now I can't walk my puppie anymore, my golf days finished a long time ago, I can't even mow the grass, so my thoughts can deeply connect with what you are saying.
The difficulty is that we never ever thought this would ever happen as a kid or a young man, in my case, the thought we always had was we're young, mobile and physically fit, it's impossible to even believe that one day we will be incapable of walking, especially along the beach but in the swimming pool, how good that feels.
Those who are not in his predicament, please try and keep your joints active, and remember if you have any pain, there is no fairy godmother, it generally won't just go away by itself, have it seen to.
Best wishes.
Geoff.
