met up with a friend tonight.. was discussing the recent wedding plans to my beautiful terminally ill partner when this friend reminded me that 'there might not be a wedding'... some people are just so blunt and ask questions so straight out like 'how long have the doctors given them? do they think they'l be around for much longer?".. this friend was asking me this as if it was 'so hows the weather?" i just burst into tears :( people can be so rude
