Friends are not friends when they drift away because you have an illness. Sure, maybe they didn't know how to handle the situation, but they could always ask. If you didn't want friends to stick around because of your illness then that's your decision and it should be respected, but not the other way round ....

I asked them if the reason they don’t call anymore is because of my epilepsy, but apparently it’s because they have kids now and don’t have time for other people. Interesting, because I have another friend with three kids who calls, visits, and even manages this as a single mom. So, I told my maid of honor that if their kids are the reason for not calling, I can always come visit instead. But whenever I call, there’s no answer. I decided that it must be the way it is, and I won’t keep investing my emotions in someone who isn’t comfortable around me or concerned about what I’m going through.Now I understand, and I have my own circle of friends who I love, who love me, and are always ready to help,and that’s what’s important. Thank you for stopping by.
These so called friends are just so freaking unbelievable! Exactly like what cladaghdowning experienced here

Anyway, all you need is a circle of quality friends who are there for you and not many who run away all the time. Take care
I read an article about this amazing fighter, and everything she wrote is true. Incurable diseases make people scared, and they would rather go away than stay and offer support. But that’s life, I understand that now. Thank you for your support!
