My friend came to me for a cup of coffee. She knew what happened to my blog and she knew it helped me feed my animals. She said "Calm down. Now you need a financial break. I will order and pay for animal food so that you can be calm and continue working." And she immediately did it on the website of the pet store.

She is indeed a friend. A real friend. You are very lucky/fortunate to have her. These hard situations are those, in which we see who is our real friend, and who is not, and there are many people, who leave us (refuse to help, but they could) in hard situations. They are not real friends.

Nowadays true friendships are really rare, and you have at least one.
