I may have to face the fact that I'll never get better. What would I do if I knew right this moment that I would never again walk without pain?
The Never Get Better To Do List
1. Apply for disabled parking placard.
2. Cut my hair. Ditch gym membership, get a Y membership. Begin swimming.
3. Quit square dancing.
4. Get an electric scooter, all-terrain if possible. Maybe buy a new car to accommodate it.
I'm holding off on doing those things because I cling to the hope that I'll get better. In some ways the worst part is not knowing either way for sure. My life is on hold until a miracle occurs.
Maybe I should set a deadline. How long am I willing to stay on hold, given that it's already been a year and a half and given that miracles aren't looking likely?

Getting a placard is a good idea. No one forces you to use it.
Does the Y have gym stuff also, or just swimming? If it does, then swim now and you can always do more later.
Maybe you can cut your hair short gradually. It will grow back.
Keep calling square dances if you like being involved.
You do need a new car, getting a little bigger one won't hurt.
