As my husband has gone through significant medical maladies in the last few years, people have made themselves quite scarce. Although they've said hollow words about "Being there" for us, their absence has belied their general uncomfortableness with being around someone in pain. I hate that. I want to yell "F*** You!" A "friend" who we've basically only seen once since my husband fell ill again in 2006 called in January to chat... I thought it so odd... until she told me her husband's colitis had flared up again and he'd been very ill for several weeks. So my husband is ill for more than a year and you don't call to check in but your husband is sick for a few weeks and you call to get support. Whatever. <BR/><BR/>I'm sorry that people around you were not more supportive and less squirrely. That just sucks.Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07923049494756911105noreply@blogger.com
