on australia day every year, the city puts on a big fireworks display etc etc. my friend said we could go and sit in her work building to watch it. fair enough. i then find out that its immediate family only. fair enough still [woopsie i typed stiff instead of still haha]. i was quite happy to go elsewhere and in fact, i wanted to go elsewhere anywhere as the city is madness on australia day. other places are having smaller fireworks displays and i suggested we go to those instead and have fish and chips on the beach. but she poo pooed that idea and says "oh i will find a way to get you in". hmm ok, doesnt bother me.

she rings back and she tells i can come and how she got me in. she said she used cf as a freaking excuse! im furious. she put on this pathetic sob story about me having cf and being sick [even though im NOT sick atm] and how i HAVE to come into the building to her boss and they caved in. i cant believe she would do such a thing! im angry and embarassed. i dont use cf as an excuse to get in or out of things unless it is absolutely necessary so this really makes me feel like a right idiot. i dont want people looking at me thinking 'oh she doesnt look sick at all. what is she doing here she isnt family. what a loser, she uses her disease as an excuse to get in here'. to make matters worse, she is asking someone for their parking pass with the same freaking excuse! i feel she has no right to do that and put me in that kind of position! am i over reacting or should i just be grateful that she got me in?

Yes, I would be VERY angry. Keep in mind I have tried to keep the fact that I have CF somewhat under the wraps for that very reason. I don't like people to look at me differently and especially not treat me like I'm sick. If a friend of mine did that I would probably be VERY frustrated.
Does she know how you feel about this? That she makes you feel like a handicapped person?

Yah I'd be Hot. For all the reasons you metioned. I wouldn't even want to walk in there after that. How are you supposed to sit there with them ...like what some charity invite? It's hard enough being the odd man out in a group like this wether it's because you're not family, or it's a couples thing and you're single, or they all work together and you are a friend of someone's, or what have you. It's just that you are the odd duck, now you have to me the odd duck whose here because she's pitful and had to come here because of her health? I have to say the fish and chips at the beach sound like a stupendous way to spend the day. Tell your friend to just finish off the big fat tale with the fact you are too sick to come to their stupid shindig but thanks anyway. I mean if she's gonna tell the lie she might as well sell it with the decline. Than tell your friend she a right horses as$. That's just my cranky opinion though.

Yes, you have every reason to be angry. Your health isn't a spectacle and i know the last thing any person with any health condition wants is sympathy for it. I feel for you, msg me and i will tell you what my friend has done!!
