Adjusting to becoming disabled from any cause is a process. It doesn't happen overnight. You go through stages. Denial, anger, loss, wanting to put the clock back, hating the changes it has imposed on your life, dealing with other people's attitudes, learning how to do things, accommodating it in your life, and ultimately acceptance. Not necessarily in that order, and with some aspects coming back unexpectedly. Ultimately it's an adventure and you can make it work for you and help others too.
