Healing
by A little advice to people on how to treat others that are dealing with disease, pain, or loss.
Never tell someone that’s hurting inside how to act next time they can’t explain their pain. It’s the single most devastating blow next to actually striking them.
Sometimes people just hurt or they are scared and just need you to listen or understand. Not to act or react, just to be, and to love them!
Sometimes it’s not that this is “THE” big one, or “This is it”! It’s just that we are sick, we are tired. We just need to hear that it’s Okay! That it is alright to just lie down and stop fighting, whether it’s just for now, or for the duration.
They don’t understand that every day we fight to feel good, to have a “good” day, to keep “The faith”!
Sometimes just being able to lie down and be sick makes you well!

Sometimes all we need is to be listened.

Bravo!
People who aren’t sick really cannot navigate the ups and downs of illness.
The last thing someone who is scared needs to hear is: “Well, you don’t want to dwell on it.” Sometimes, someone is trying to come to terms with being ill–and of course, that has to take center stage.
