I recently had to go into hospital for an operation and ended up being off work for 6 weeks. Early on, I was very tired and couldn't do much at all.
During these weeks,some friends were brilliant, visiting me in hospital, cooking meals and just making the effort to come round for a chat as I couldn't drive.Others who are very busy themselves, would ring for a chat.
But some, who I had thought were good friends, didn't even phone to see how I was.
Now, maybe this sounds a bit pathetic and needy, but I suppose because I was recovering from a major operation it made me think that they obviously weren't people to rely on. Now I'm wondering if I even want to stay friends with them?
Having said that, I know everyone has their own problems and maybe they were having a bad time too..........
