I am recovering from a major surgery – one that my friends knew about and know was a really big decision for me to make. I am baffled that three weeks after my surgery, I have only heard from half of them and only one of them has actually called me to see how I am recovering. The others have consisted of a text message essentially hoping that my recovery is going well. What is happening to humanity? This surgery had major physical and emotional implications for my life and I can’t believe that my “friends” can’t pick up the phone, let alone stop by for a visit, to see how I am actually coping. I know that Covid has done a number on our social skills but this is really hitting home and it scares me to think that we are losing the ability to be there for each other. What’s happening here? Is anyone else feeling this way?
