Chronic Illness - A Friend’s Perspective-ep21
Today’s question, from Instagram follower @dunn.a1, is for our guest: “How has being friends with someone with a chronic illness shifted your perspective?”
Friends who understand and support you through health issues are hard to find but worth losing spoons for -Sarah Reid
Welcome back! I’m super excited about today’s episode because we have a very special guest - my best friend, Makayla!
After a quick introduction, I’ll ask Makayla some pretty deep questions:
Was it hard for you when my health started going downhill and the things we did had to look different, or we had to leave places early?
You’ve pushed me in my wheelchair in public and have always been cool about it, but was that ever hard for you?
Were you ever scared when I was in the hospital? Or were you just like, “Oh, it’s just another Tuesday for Sarah”?
What advice would you give to someone with a friend who has health issues?
And more!
But there’s always fun and laughter when we get together too!
** If you have a burning question you want me to answer in a future episode, feel free to dm me on my Instagram @be_potsitive!
Thanks for listening!
I’d love to hear from you! Connect with me on Instagram @be_potsitive And check out my chronic illness merch on Redbubble and Zazzle where you’ll find lots of cute items to make you smile and raise awareness for our community.
