Anger!!

I am incredibly angry right now. More like livid. In the PH chat rooms tonight, a person named Sarah came into the chat room. She started out ok, saying she was in the room because she wanted to find out more about PH. She didn't have PH, but a friend did, and she wanted to know what it was really like with PH because she thought her friend was faking it.

I'm sorry, faking it????

How do you fake being so out of breath after walking up a flight of stairs?

How do you fake being a little blue after just walking down your hallway?

How do you fake blowing up with fluid because your heart is starting to go into failure?

How do you fake being tired when you do something simple like making your bed?

How do you fake a disease with tests and doctor visits that cost an incredible amount of money?

How do you fake an illness with treatments that can cost thousands of dollars a month?

I can't begin to tell you how angry I was to hear this woman spew all of the things she thinks her friend is faking!! This woman obviously has no clue what it's like to have a serious and life threatening disease. I mean, most people don't know what it's like, but at least they have some sort of compassion and caring in them. This Sarah kept telling us that she wanted to take over and control our PHriend (yes, we figured out that she was talking about a PHriend on the boards!!), and that she has been trying to get our PHriend's medical records, and trying to contact her doctors. She kept saying her friend was unstable and mentally not all there. I just couldn't believe it!! What kind of a friend are you when you say that about someone you supposedly care about?? It was all so very upsetting! And when we finally called her out on who she was, she shut up for a very long time. Then someone started saying something to her again, and eventually all of us were telling her to leave the room and never come back! No one can sit there and tell a room full of PHers that they think someone they know is FAKING THIS ILLNESS!!! She got an earful from us, and I sure hope she never comes back again!!

By the way, our PHriend this Sarah was talking about got into the chat room about 15 minutes after Sarah left. We all told her the story, and apparently Sarah has been trying to find out alot of crap about our PHriend today. So the advice given to our PHriend was to try to get some sort of order of protection against Sarah, which our PHriend is working on!!!! She is definitely in my prayers, that this Sarah person will be out of her life soon, because she is just a toxic person!!

And if Sarah ever comes back into the chat room, she will definitely get an earful from a large group of angry PHers!!!

You go girl. I can't believe that someone would "fake" a friendship such as was described on chat that night. I came in late but I could feel the tension that was there. Unreal....
