What is lost time in life?

What is lost time in life?
If there is such a thing, I started my business in my thirties, and it's lost time until now.

Before I was in my thirties, I had never been sick and thought I could do anything as long as I had a strong body.
However, since his thirties, he has had one car accident and four surgeries, and has been hospitalized five times in total.
It was especially life-changing when he developed the difficult disease "posterior longitudinal ligament ossification".
I was told that when I developed the disease, I felt a cold sensation with numbness in the lower half of my body below my navel, that I couldn't walk alone because I felt weakness when I walked, and that there was a 70% chance of success in the surgery and that I would be unable to walk at worst.
Luckily it was a successful surgery, and apparently the chances of it recurring are low...

I've had another relapse.
In addition, this time, my neck was numb and cold, and I was in a wheelchair with no strength due to a feeling of complete weakness. I don't know if I made a mistake in making the easy decision to have another surgery because I got better in the last one. I was able to walk once after the surgery, but it seems to be coming back gradually. He was hospitalized for about six months.
My hope became despair, and I, being the type of dumbass that I am, arrived at the present time with no answer as to what I should do...

It's hard to summarize in a short article, but the point is that my life from my thirties when I became ill to the present is a blank slate. He was doing it! This is what I'm talking about! I had a strong feeling that I was living as if I was dead.

There's also the pathetic fact that I was able to trigger the death of my dad and get back to reality.
So we can't keep doing this, we have to do something about it! The thought occurred to me.

The life I once almost gave up, and it's been 50 years since I lived. I consider the rest as loss time, and even if I fail, I want to enjoy creating some purpose.

Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) is a process of fibrosis, calcification, and ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament of the spine, that may involve the spinal dura. Once considered a disorder unique to people of Asian heritage, it is now recognized as an uncommon disorder in a variety of patients with myelopathy. ※From Wikipedia
