welcome to the group, telling someone you haven't seen in years can have many outcomes , my friends would ask if thy needed to do anything if while with me and i would let them know just as i would let a family or close friend know. right up front. that's how my friends know me and wouldn't want less. if you are really worried about it have it out as soon as able to stave off future issues or more. course that is my opinion, i just don't like others being shocked unnecessarily if i can help it. a good friend would take it however you put it to them.

@randallshields56 would add to that if my friend was concerned, id walk them through a couple scenario's. let them know you know how and what to do. who knows maybe say i have a health issue and don't want to scare you off if it rears its ugly head, i know how to handle this. I'm actually going thru something like this now, i told my friend the doctors are not worried and said they are working hard to get me on the right meds to keep my seizure's at bay. it helped calm her down enough we could visit more.

@randallshields56 Correct, Dan, Randy. You'll know who your true friends are. I learned I had only 3 friends, out of about 15 with whom I routinely associated. I now know them as past casual acquaintances.
