OK, I cannot stress this enough.

KEEP INVITING your chronically ill friends & (chosen) family to things.

Yes, a lot of the time we won't be able to come, but

1. that's our decision, don't make it for us, and
2. it's incredibly hurtful to find out there was an event etc and that we weren't invited. We want to at least know you were thinking of us.

A simple message saying: you are doing X and that you realise we probably cannot make it*, but would love us to be there if we can, is all you need to do.
