I seem to have lost most of relationships since being diagnosed with MS last year. Of course in the beginning my life changed dramatically...I lost my job from because sick so often and had to move back home closer to family.
I admit I was preoccupied with being sick and dealing with the symptoms that the MS was causing and reaching out to others was not high on my priority list. I frequently heard from my friends at the beginning..."oh I would like to see you or I will come to see you" but nobody came. I understand that everybody has lives and other responsibilities but I have seen none of my friends since being diagnosed.
My question is how do I reach out to my friends and try to repair these relationships and how do I get over the hurt of my friends not being there for me?
