Through life you gain many friends
But only a few are true friends
They will be there for you no matter what
Through good times and the bad
…
Those friends are incredibly important
Especially to someone who lives with chronic illness
They listen and want to know more about your health
They do all they can to help you
…
You can trust they will look after you when you’re unwell
Pick you up when you’re feeling down
They won’t judge you for being ill
But instead listen, support and assist in any way they can
…
Those friends only want the best for you
They want you to succeed in everything you do
They are a helping hand when you need it most
And you can depend on them no matter what
…
They understand when you need some time and space
You can go months without seeing each other
But you know you are still there for one another
Now that is a true friendship
