Hi,
I am feeling shocked at the people in my life, family and long term friends who have stopped contacting me after my child's diagnosis.
Some in truth I'm not surprised about and others I am.
I have rationalized that people don't understand the situation, and other maybe feel awkward in discussing it.
It really has made me question values that people really have.
I do have others that maybe don't understand but still contact.
I try hard not to offload on them and save that for my professional visits.
It's sad but that's how life's relationships go I guess.
