Because the alternative is death and I'm not ready for that yet. I thought that I was, but I wasn't.
Every day is a new battle and so far, I've won. I've accepted that I don't need legs to live. I've learned that life really does go on. All of that sounds trite when you're hurting, doesn't it? I wish I had a better answer for you.
