To my dearest friends that have offered to come here and help me out with stuff – please don’t take my refusal to heart. While I could probably use your help in doing things around the house I may need you more in the near future once we know what we’re going to be confronted with. I don’t want to abuse the privilege of any friendships, and you all know how bloody independent I can try to be. I hate to be a bother to anyone. In the near future we may consider hiring a housekeeper to come in twice a month to do the things that I am no longer capable of doing – floors, windows, extensive dusting. I’d rather have friends here at a later date to simply sit with me while I’m totally indisposed, maybe do a bit of cooking for my darling huz. Since I’m relatively still on my feet I just need to TRY and do some of the trivial stuff around here myself.
I know I’m probably being stubborn – but as I mentioned, I don’t want to seem to use any of you for help at this time for my own peace of mind and to keep from feeling so incredibly guilty for being stupid and getting myself into this situation with the virus in the first place. Hep C sucks. . .
Love you all. -L
