And a couple more about illness etiquette from Abide should you ever find yourself visiting someone who hasn’t been well.

    I love the “How to Live a Short, Miserable, Unhealthy Life” feature! ;)

    It reminds me of my boyfriend’s stepdad. He smokes 40 cigarettes a day, drinks a lot, eats mainly junk food, never ever exercises… and boasts about how his heart is getting worse and worse. He seems really proud that he now needs to take 8 tablets in the morning (and more at lunchtime, in the evening, at bedtime…). I know how being the sickest person around gives you a special status (all too well), but he pushes it so far it really seems like he wants to be very sick. It’s frightening.

    Amélie: Your boyfriend’s stepdad is really headed for trouble. It must be awful being a bystander and not being able to do anything about it. :(
