Ugh. It hurts my brain to read. Katie, slow down. Breathe. You've added 4 or 5 new worries into your life in the last day or so.
You only have one worry, Katie. Recovery. When you get that down, you will have clear cut, well defined answers to all the other worries. It's just the way it works. Forget about the rest of it. Stick a tourniquet on it and set it aside. Recovery. The one and only thing you have to get right.
What is the one thing you can do today for your recovery? Identify it and do it. And that's all you get to do. You don't get to obsess or do anything else. Do that one thing until it's done. Then identify the next thing.
