Is 29 yo ( still ) young ? Can you still get your life back on track if you are 29 and you spent your 20s in hospitals ?
I am 29 yo and i spent my 20s in hospitals. I was in coma, poisoned, physically disabled ( car accident),fighting cancer. Now I am healthy ( 100%) again.
I missed my 20s. Only I managed to get my MBA degree in the meantime.
Should i feel ashamed and embarrassed of myself? How to get my life back on track? What should i do?
Any advice is more than welcome.

You can still get your life on track. I recommend start slowly, and don't try to make up for lost time. One of the most important skills you can acquire is the ability to set a goal and accomplish it. I recommend that you make a goal list of a dozen or so tiny goals and work toward accomplishing them. These should be minor, and fairly unimportant goals. What you are trying to accomplish is the skill of being able to set a goal and reach it. Then once you have accomplished those goals, set another dozen goals that are more important, but not really important goals, and work through that list. After you accomplish that list, then create another list with more important goals, and repeat each time you finish the list.
This helps you learn to accomplish goals, and also helps you learn what type of goals you should be setting.
For the first goal list, it can contain items like:
Go on a Picnic,
Go to a Park,
Go to the grocery store and buy a week's worth of groceries,
etc.
These should be just small, easily accomplished goals.
Each time you create a new goal list, you can work to creating a list of things that are more important in your life.
Best of luck to you.
Oh, and by the way. No feeling sorry for yourself for missing out on your 20s.

I don't know whether you have any reason to feel ashamed. But either way, it's in the past; the present and the future are what matter. It sounds like you've had plenty of reason to feel discouraged. But now you've realized that you're healthy again. It's likely that you'll have a better than average remainder of your life if you take care of yourself. You're different than many of us; you're not taking your life and your health for granted, it's an advantage you have. Decide what you want to do, what matters to you, what interests you. Don't rush those decisions, for obvious reasons. And you can change your mind later, but try to make a good decision. Then focus, and stay focused on those goals and desires.
