I agree with Risa on this one, take it easy on her, she was just trying to get you into the place, but admittedly she chose the wrong way. It's impossible for anybody who doesn't have a chronic illness to know how we feel about these things and how sensitive/proud we are. Tell her thanks and you understand she was only trying to help, then slap her hard!!! Tell her you have your pride, you are not a charity case EVER and that in future if anybody finds out about your illness it will be from your own lips. Oh dear i'm glad you're not going to go, bugger that!!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif" border="0">
