How dare you be different Jessica!!!!! Joking aside - Very few seem to be able to be individual any more. Very few can think for themselves. I am sorry that this happened to you. As my wife became more ill, fewer people seemed able to adapt, to find out, to think around the 'problem' or, a phrase I dislike, to reach out. Ultimately we are alone except for those who really are close and care for us. My wife's passing has made me realise this even more painfully. My teenage daughters save me every day. We all have each others' backs. Go out there, be yourself, do whatever you have to do and don't expect anything except the wonderful love of your family and those rare close friends and your brilliant supporters who will continue to sit with you.
Thank you so much for writing- that’s so kind of you, Sara. I do feel like illness gives you the ‘cheese touch.’ And yes I am very fancy with my Diary of a Wimpy Kid reference ;-)
This is such an articulate and wise view of the world- would expect nothing less from you :) Thank you so much for taking the time to write this. It really, really helps
What horrible people. Well done you for going back! If I was there I would get you a proper chair and sit with you.
Hurray- thank you so much Mark! How kind of you. It really helps to know that good people would come and keep me company :)

I’ll sit with you!
That is such a kind thing to say- thank you Alice!
I'm really sorry this happened. I feel very sad and angry reading this. It would have been so easy to include you and it's awful no-one bothered.

I wasn't cool enough to know the reference without googling, but what a perfect analogy!
Haha - we use it all the time in our house!
