Hi again Morris1612 and great you were able to navigate across to this little corner.
I am sure that some of the others who are still active on the HL group will come along but often people do move on with life once treatments are finished...... I on the other hand still stick around to help folks out.
As I said in your New to Community post I don't have HL but was diagnosed way back in 1999 with a rare incurable but treatable type of skin Non Hodgkin’s Lymphoma Stage 4a - my treatment journey is a long story so you can hit my community name and see my profile.
The first thing I will say is that although what you see in the mirror is hard and you just can't see a way forward..... this is temporary and this will pass.
You need to 'get' that your body has been put through so much in such a short time that it is just going to take time to recover - but recover it will.
You will see from my profile that I had some "interesting" condition presentation issues and these resulted in some full on treatments. This unfortunately for me results in some facial changes so every time I look in the mirror I am reminded of my journey but also some medical post treatment 'left overs'
But I take the simple view that without these amazing treatments I would not be sitting talking with you today.
Back in 1999 I was told “Mike, I am sorry to tell you that this type of NHL is incurable, yes treatable but you will never be in remission”...... but after years of various treatments in September 2016 I was told I was in remission for the first time in 17 years - and I am living the dream 
Happy to talk more at any time.
It is all hard work and at the start and even well into the journey it all seems impossible but keeping your eyes firmly fixed on the greater good in all this is so important and is one of the main steppingstones to crossing this mad raging river ((hugs))
