I know, I know, I keep harping on about this, but the shallowness of friendships and people in general never ceases to amaze me. If you aren't going to stick with someone through Hell, why bother being his/her friend? Or pretending to be.
I checked on the stroke support forum I visit—this is pretty much universal.
Just had to get that off my chest. Victim or caretaker—both get to deal with this drama. People who have never experienced a true trauma, just don't really stick it out. There are a few rare exceptions—thank goodness for them. Lots of people support you during the actual trauma, but it's the one's who endure through the long haul and fallout who are really worth calling friend. I'm not feeling very charitable toward the rest of them at the moment. @#$% them.
