Found this recent quote in an interview with Stephen Hawking in a Spanish newspaper.
"...My advice to other disabled people would be, concentrate on things your disability doesnt prevent you doing well, and dont regret the things it interferes with. Theoretical physics is one of the few fields in which being disabled is no handicap. Its all in the mind. I must admit, I do tend to drift off to thinking about physics or black holes when I get left behind in the conversation.
In fact, my disability has been a help in a way. It has freed me from teaching or sitting on boring committees, and given me more time to think and do research."

Fun facts to up your day:The Big Bang wasn't IN space... it was OF space. How does that happen? Well, now you know why I'm NOT a physicist. Cuz I dunno. It just happened. Thena gain a new hypothesis is that our "black energy/matter" is actually waste dumped in our universe from somewhere else's black holes. How and all that? Don't ask. You start getting all "The Matrix" and muttering...

You.notice and appreciate things you didn't take the time for.before. And you developed skills in new areas as you lose the ability to perform skills in the areas you always have.
For example you can't play with your grandchildren like you did before. But you can sit and read them a story or color with them
These quite quality times build deeper and stronger relationships because you are focused on them and not focusing on other things and people. And chances are you are the only one they get this focused attention from for more than a few minutes. You may have artistic abilities that you never took the time to notice and now you can developed them.
