I had no idea that she was into the rough stuff.
You never told me that you That you like that stuff 'cause, uh, you don't look that torn up about it, this is a pretty clean break.
Welcome everyone, welcome to group.
It's so nice to see so many new faces, as we remember why the old faces are not here tonight.
Okay, so when you're supporting someone through an illness, it's important to remember the circles of support.
So at the centre is the person experiencing the illness.
Oh that's my friend Judy, that's and I'm Vicky.
Yeah, yeah, she's sick and I'm not sick.
MODERATOR: Okay, good to know.
Okay, hi Judy, hi Vicky, welcome.
Okay, so the person at the centre, when they need to cry or be angry or whatever, they can unload those feelings on the people closest to them.
People in the first ring, that would be people like a spouse, like a close family member or a best friend.
VICKY: Oh oh that's me, that's me, yeah yeah yeah.
I don't want to be this but I want to be this one.
Right there, that's me, yeah, hi Vicky, hi.
Oh we should do this now Judy, sorry about this.
Judy's husband got freaked out because, you know, of all the sickness and the smell, which is bad, and then you got also get in and go ppbsst, and you got to wipe that right in there.
So he left her.
That makes me, bam, best friend, number one circle, right here, first tier, boo, dab.
Yeah.
Okay, okay, okay, thank you very much Vicky, that's enough.
There's um, there's a system.
Okay, so people here in this first ring, they can unload whatever they like to people in the second ring, that would be people like other family, other friends or even an acquaintance.
Uh, are there any second ringers here? Hey, I'm, uh, I'm Annie, I'm here with Emily and, um, I'm a neighbour and I just sort of, um, help out when her sister can't be there.
So I don't know if I'm second ring or third ring or Oh you're second ring.
You're second ring, come on.
That's good, second stringer, you know your place, right, 'cause I'm best and you're second best.
- We're not really here to compare.
- VICKY: No, third best.
No no it's not, it's not a ranking.
Don't sell yourself short, you're second best, yeah.
And you're second best, and you're second best for sure.
And should you even be here? I'm very sick.
Okay, okay, okay, so I just would like to remind everyone, but particularly you Vicky, that the reason that we do this circle is to make things easier on the person who is sick because it is toughest on them.
Exactly.
It is so tough to take care of Judy.
But you know what's going to bring my mood around? A good old cup of tea.
Okay, sickies, you stay here, and, uh, all the ringers come on with me, come on, let's go make me a cup of tea.
This is a skill you're going to need, all right, so come on.
- Sorry, I'm - It's fine.
Don't freak out, okay.
Um, are you confident you have the most supportive person with you? Listen, she has a car with super comfy heated seats and she drives me everywhere.
I have saved a fortune on taxis.
Fair enough.
It's always the assholes that have the nice car, huh.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
You know, no one knows the suffering that I'm going through.
(EXHALES DEEPLY) To be, or not to be that is the question, whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows.
HUSBAND: Ah babe, I'm so sorry to interrupt but this isn't really what I had in mind when I agreed to role play.

Yeah I know but I just thought, you know, like a sexy nurse or a sexy police No, I was born to play the great roles.
Sexy Hamlet, sexy Lear.
