I appreciate compassion, but until someone has been in your shoes, they don't get it. It's hard to see the woeful eyes, or so it seems somedays.Katharine Hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03484433131827324000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6041000800660428069.post-49730747242833296972012-09-14T18:13:36.872-05:002012-09-14T18:13:36.872-05:00I do the same as you.

With anyone else I get looked at like I have 2 heads (imagine double the pain) or the glazed over look of the non-interest or the comments of "oh, but you don't look sick". So to the outside world it's why bother, you talk until your blue in the face and they never get it. It's most sad when your only family who is suppose to be your biggest support system doesn't get it or they get tired of hearing about it. <br /><br />And as Della put it, the know-it-all's who have all the answers but forgot to put the MD behind their names. LOL. Oh yes, THOSE people. They're everywhere. Lord help us.

It also doesn't help that we can appear fine one day, and be totally wiped out the next. How do you explain that??? Close friends and family are the only ones who get it. I've played the superficial answer game, too. It works very well.<br /><br />Then there are the people who think they know just what you need....oh, those people.Dellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07826435478377353342noreply@blogger.com
