Dear coworker,

Yes, I realize I did sign up to bring sodas to our potluck on Tuesday. I also realize I missed Tuesday & Wednesday because of this illness that has been plaguing me for so long. The one that I have surgery scheduled for May 20th to remove a tumor and parts of my body for. The illness that makes me have migraines EVERY day, that make me throw up and black out. That has given me kidney stones that are huge and hurt constantly. The same illness that makes me so tired I can barely stay awake for more than a few hours at a time.

I *know* I failed to live up to expectations by not bringing the sodas to the potluck. It was very rude of you to walk up to my desk as you were leaving work today and say, "We had a lot of very thirsty people at our potluck on Tuesday. It was very inconsiderate of you to sign up to bring drinks if you didn't think you were going to bring them." And then you walked off, without letting me tell you that I DID think I would bring them, I did in fact buy them and consider having my husband drive 40 miles out of his way to deliver them while I was at the emergency room.

And you consider yourself a Christian. You should be ashamed.

Respectfully,
Your very ill coworker.
