This course focuses on understanding how to live with your illness after the diagnosis. Dealing with the shock of a diagnosis is a numbing experience. At that very moment all your dreams of the future will seem to disappear. Not knowing the future can be very overwhelming. Now is the time to reach out and ask for help, find a Support Person. For most of us, we won t want to do this. First, we feel that all of a sudden we have lost control of the ability to think for ourselves. This is not true. At the time of diagnosis, our thinking will be clouded. Second, we may not want to inconvenience anyone by asking for help. The reality is that in some cases you will. But it is so important not to miss any information in the beginning stages. Enroll today! This is a self-paced, online course. You have 6 months to finish. An instructor will monitor your progress and assess your body of work at course completion. UniversalClass™ offers many wonderful learning tools to help you get the most out of your online course, including an online portfolio service that manages all your course completions.

Learn to live with illness.  There is little information available to us about living with illness and coping with chronic pain.  This course is designed to give you an understanding as well as a practical guide for maintaining a sense of normalcy. 

Living with an illness can be challenging.  But there is hope by embracing the things that you can control and releasing the things you can not.  This course will help you achieve both.
