Went to visit a freind...life can be cruel

Hi to all hope you are having a good day, i felt i had to get this out of my system, so here is the jist of it. My hubby iain is in a band, he plays fiddle & sings & his freind neil plays accordion.

They are great freinds, i used to go to the gigs with them as did neils wife so we got to know each other very well.

I don't go out much and lost track of socialising as fb keeps me home. It was about 2 weeks ago a phone call from neil saying Jane was in hospital with pains in stomach & could not get pain free.Jane is 43......1 week later iwas told Heaven was calling her in weeks, after tears & shock my fb joined in.

It tooks 3-4 days for me to come to terms about the news. I went to see her yesterday & she is a possitive person, us scorpions are!!

It sounds silly but i felt better after visiting jane, don't know if I felt ashamed at not keeping in touch & it took bad news to see her again. How guilty i feel at not seeing her as often as i should have.

Sorry for going on about such a sad situation, thanks for reading take care & gentle hugs to all fibromites xxxx.

Tanks tofty for your kind words, the freinds i thought would try & understand let me down.

I have learnd alot since mr fibro joined the family & accept how they have there on lives to lead. it is time to get on with my own and be greatful for the few freinds i have. Take care n hugs Mary xx.

So sorry for your bad news. dont feel bad as it does take us with fibro a while to get over shock and we can handle things in a different way to other people. As tofty says it does work both ways. friendship shouldnt be oneway.

Take Care
