The person I considered to be my best friend has all but stopped calling me. I know she's busy....she works full time....but when she does call it's just not the same anymore. I know she doesn't understand or "get it" regarding my MS. I know by some of the remarks she makes. She told me once that she calls to invite me out even though she knows I won't go because she doesn't want me to feel left out. I appreciate that...I really do....but it makes me feel even worse to know that everyone is going out, having fun, and even though I want to go I know I can't do it. Just the process of getting ready to go out wipes me out. It's either or. I can either get ready to go and then stay home....or I can not get ready to go and go out!
Hey, at least I can look decent while I sit here by myself!!
