Comfort in Uncertainty

I’m assuming that most of us on this forum have been impacted by a life-threatening disease. Each disease can be very different, and even individuals with the same disease can have dramatically different experiences. However, one thing we are all forced to experience/endure is the immense uncertainty about our future. We cannot predict or control how our disease will progress or not progress, and we cannot predict or control how long we have left to live. We effectively have to live each day in limbo.

From an emotional perspective, I believe that the concept of UNCERTAINTY is probably THE most brutal aspect of living with a life-threatening disease. So since we no doubt have a wealth of experience on this forum, I’d like to start a discussion about is what strategies, methods, resources, or other helpful hints that each of you may have used to find (some) comfort in living with uncertainty.

Thanks in advance,
Dane.
