Is that right? Did you really say that?

I am starting to learn how lonely this road really is. 
Hubby can’t drive me to and from my port insertion; he’s just started a new job and arranged Tuesday off specifically to take
me to chemo. I don’t want him to make a bad impression and rearrange the schedule so soon. So I beg my oldest friends last night only to be met with lots of excuses. Wow, just wow. I mean I’ve heard some doozies like everyone else above but from people who are offering to help, so when you actually ask there’s nothing?
