“I actually feel like my network is bigger now. My network’s the same, but I didn’t have the perception that all these people were a part of my network until I realized that they would show up for me in an emergency situation. I was really amazed that when I did start asking for help, there were people who I wouldn’t have said were my friends who were totally the people I could go to for help in an emergency. It made me feel like I had more friends than I realized.”
