Her Friends Abandoned Her While She Was Battling Cancer And Have Suddenly Returned To Her Life Now That She’s Finished Treatment

People say you know you have good friends when they stick by you through some of your lowest moments in life.
Most of one woman’s friends abandoned her while she was battling breast cancer and have suddenly returned to her life now that she’s finished treatment and feeling better.
She’s 35-years-old and was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer last year. When she was first diagnosed, she had a solid group of supportive friends who were there for her not long after she got the scary news.
But over time, she started hearing from her friends less and less. Anytime she tried to get together with them, there was always some excuse for why they couldn’t see her.
“It was very emotionally and mentally hard for me to feel abandoned by the people I thought cared about me, especially after everything I did for them,” she said.
“I was there for them.”
Thankfully, one of her girlfriends has been very loyal and stood by her while she got treatment. She’s been extra diligent in making sure her friend knows how appreciated she is.
She’s also beginning to feel a lot better after having surgery at the end of last year and completing chemotherapy treatments one month ago.
She feels more energetic, her appetite is back, and she’s even been able to participate in a few outdoor activities.

“Now that I’m doing better, I’ve been posting on social media some photos of my outdoor adventures, and sure enough, after the other formal friends have seen I’ve been out and about, they started commenting how we should go and do the activity together,” she explained.
She’s also been receiving messages from these friends for the first time in a while, asking her to go out and do things with them.
She hasn’t been able to bring herself to respond to the messages, as she’s so hurt and confused by their sudden interest in spending time with her. She can’t help but wonder why they weren’t there for her while she was in need of support.
She’s been talking to other people in her life about what she should do, and she’s getting mixed messages.
“Some agree [that] I shouldn’t waste energy on people that showed their true colors, but others, including my partner, think I should forgive and give them a chance,” she said.
“So, I’m conflicted on how to go about it.”
Should she try reconnecting with her friends after what they did or move on and stick with those closest to her?
