A few years ago I had a whole group of friends, but then my youngest of three children was diagnosed with cerebral palsy and he’s totally dependent, my daughter was diagnosed with ADD and dyslexia. Suddenly all my ‘friends’ fled. They’re still there on the fringe but none of them ever want to do anything with me anymore. They just want to call me and tell me how great their lives are, and one of them keeps calling to tell me how make believe ADD is (the school wants to test both of her kids and she refuses, saying it’s just a way to pigeon hole kids).

I don’t have time for meetups, I don’t have time to search out friends. I thought I had good friends, we’d known each other since highschool and we’d gone though so much. When times were bumpy for them I was there to hold their hands, but the problem is their bumpy roads ended where as mine will go on and on forever. None of them wanted to sign on for that I guess.

I know that there is no answer to my dilemma about ‘no friends’ but I just wanted to vent. Thanks for listening.
