Being Sick

Wanna know the worst part of getting sick I.e. getting Covid or the flu or even a cold? I can handle being sick btw, but when sick, we are in a vulnerable state and need soothing. The worst part is that I want to call my mother and for her to tell me everything is going to be ok, that she loves me, and hopes I feel better. But a narcissistic parent has zero capacity to do that. And if I text how I feel about that to a friend, they tell me to get over it. So I write it here, in the cyber sea, hoping someone will understand.
