@frances007,

First, Happy Birthday.

For those reading post, your PID is Primary Immune Deficiency. Not Pelvic Inflammatory disease. So many medical abbreviations stand for multiple things. At first could not understand why your friend would be upset about PID disease until I looked at your profile.

As we grow older, some friends no longer fit into our life's. Their (or yours) values, priorities, other relationships change and affect your relationship.

Give her some time to respond. There may be something else going on in her life that is delaying response or explains the odd card.

Do you have a mutual friend that you can ask about her?

in reply to @roch Thanks, Yes about the abbreviation, my apologies. And the treatment I am getting is called IVIG, is made from human plasma and I get infusions bi-weekly because my body cannot tolerate a full adult dose. I get a pediatric dose because of the weight loss. In any case, knowing my friend as well as I do, she probably will not respond to my letter. In the letter I explained that if she chose not to respond, that would be okay, and that I would always remember our friendship with fondness. I have known for months that she did not want to have anything to do with me, wasn't interested in some of the new things I was doing, she is really one cool cookie and maybe I have been in denial for too long about who she really is. However, I am not going to blame myself for other people's mistakes, even if it took me 60 plus years to figure out I don't have to accept such blame. Thanks again for pointing out Primary Immune Defieciency, which is a chronic and incurable illness for which I am getting treatment "for the rest of my life," although at this point I am committed to 6 months. The cure is worse than the disease if you know what I mean.
