“It’s really good to see you.”
“No pressure at all, choose what works for you.”
“There’s a seat for you if you need a rest.”
“Let me know if you want to avoid eating/drinking anything.”
“How’s your energy today?”
“I’m just glad you’re here.”
“Do you need a hand with anything?”
“You bought your own food, cool, let me get you a plate”
“Totally fine if you’re not drinking, whatever works, there’s plenty of soft drinks/water”
“Thanks for telling me, that makes sense.”
“Your no is enough, no explanation needed.”
“I’ve got you.”
If someone with autoimmune disease or chronic symptoms has made an effort to see you at Christmas, regardless of what they eat or drink, you must matter and that’s enough.
