I have two friends that have stood by me through thick and thin......never questioned the way I was feeling.......only offer support. They are like gold to me and they both know I'd do the same for them should the situation arise.
Neither of them have any medical issues. The people I know who have medical conditions really don't want to hear about mine. Maybe it's just that they already have enough to deal with? Maybe they feel like we're in competition??

I'll see your leg pain and raise you a numb torso and the "hug".

Honestly, I feel like that around some of them sometimes.
Good friends are precious. Hang onto them.
