   Listen up! I'll have you know that (((Berries))) is a Friend of mine - I don't have sucky friends, and I will not stand for you saying such terrible things about my Friend (((Berries))). My Friend (((Berries))) is honest, honorable, good, kind, loving, caring, generous of spirit, thoughtful, supportive, determined, and helpful despite (((Berries'))) illness. No one abuses my Friends, not even my Friends; and no one abuses my Friend (((Berries))), not even (((Berries))).
Please do not devalue the love we, your Friends, have for you, (((Berries))); honor our love for you by loving yourself at least as much as we do - do this for us, your Friends, since we cannot be there with you in person - let us know that you are caring for yourself as we would care for you if we were right there with you. Please don't hurt (((Berries))).
