HI Fran - thanks so much for sharing your experience. Life is too short to hang on to old stuff - especially when situations change.
I think our BC journey gives us such a shared empathy with others that allows us to reach out sometimes no matter what.
I too have a friend that didn't contact me once while i was having my "journey" and i had so many others in my world that it didn't stress me. Bothered my mother more than it did me - she knew how much support our family had been to her over many years!
But she was diagnosed with BC a couple of months ago and had bilateral mastectomy - she rang me one day to not talk about her own BC but to apologise for not being there for me when I was going through it. We talked for ages and i did let her know that i was disappointed at the time but that I understood her not knowing what to say or do.
We all deal with things differently and sometimes think we are doing the right thing and only when we are in the actual shoes do we have the opportunity to reflect.
Again - good on you for making the move.
