Sorry to hear this Mike.
Glad things are getting sorted with the help of your wife, she sounds a marvellous woman.
As you say time is a great healer, let's hope it doesn't take too long.

Sorry to hear that Mike, you've had some real bad luck there, sounds a though you have a great partner there!, depression is a real nightmare "the black dog" as winston Churchill called it, lots of forum members have suffered it, me included, a few things to keep in mind are that it is a real physical illness, not just something "in the mind", your seratonin levels are depleted and it's hard for the brain to get them back to the correct level, so if your doc has offered you medication such as fluoxetine for this all the better, it works by stopping your brain reabsorbing the seratonin that it naturally produces thus raising the level back to normal more quickly, so if you haven't had this prescribed ask why not, your post above shows a fighting spirit despite your current low mood, that's a huge positive, work on that and force yourself to do even the smallest tasks when you don't feel like doing them, it has a cumulative effect and gradually you will climb out of the pit , take all the help offered and then push yourself hard when you feel that you are able to, that's my advice anyway, time as you say is a great healer and your current situation is not nice but definitely only temporary, all the best for now.

That's bad news Mike. Hope you feel better soon. Your wife is a diamond. Mark summed it up very positively, ask for help when you need it. Things will get better sooner than you think. You'll get there and so will the dream bike. I look forward to seeing progress soon. Good luck, keep going and never give up.
