I'm really sorry to hear this violette about how you became infected, etc. I am impressed by your spirit....at least within this forum.

Life can be shocking.

But one that cannot be taken away from us: is all the skills and knowledge that we've picked up along the way in life. It can help us in certain areas.

I realize you cannot practice as a nurse, but you already have health care knowledge in certain areas that many of us do not have.
