We all have moments that completely take our life and turn it around. What was yours?

The day my best friend for 9 months told me I was toxic and left me. It was on April 1st last year, I thought it was some kind of sick joke. I miss her. Not looking forward to the 1 year anniversary of it coming up...
The moment where my health started deteriorating. First my endometriosis and adenomyosis got worse going from once a month to every day. I developed asthma and stopped being able to cycle or jog. Then my liver started failing. And finally i developed chronich fatigue sindrome (CFS).
In three years I went from a healthy fit woman having a very physical job (animal caregiver and later gardener) to a 32yo woman who can barely walk 10m without needing to rest. I spent all my life studying and working hard just to become a useless cripple who needs the help of her partner to do most things.
I cannot work, cannot study out of the house, cannot learn the local language, cannot make friends and will never have a good happy life. I dont even remember how it felt now being in pain. Now i have "good days" where the pain is mild to horrible days where I cant even sleep from the pain.
F**k you body. You betrayed me. I hate you.
The day my wife and I decided to adopt. I never thought I could love so completely and that was 22 years ago. Btw my wife and I are white, my daughter is not… There were struggles but no regrets.
