Ali, That "friend" who is being mean to you isn't a friend and is not worth your time. If she does or says anything to you thats inappropriate I would tell someone right away but otherwise I would just stay as far away from her as I could get. You can't make people have good manners hun. She sounds like someone who needs lots of attention. And if she went to your pm doc faking RSD symptoms there is something very wrong with that girls head. I hope the rest of the kids treat you good & school is enjoyable & isn't too much. I think getting out of the house & having some normal kid activity would be good for someone your age. Heck it would be good for anyone who has been housebound. Hang in there though. The kids will get used to your condition. They will get there questions answered & hopefully it will just be normal to them. I also hope your teachers treat you with kindness. Take care.
hugs, denny
