What is your opinion of Kate’s friends? We see them several times throughout the movie. Towards the beginning, they come over for dinner that Bec prepares.

They didn’t want to go out of their way to make accommodations for her. The blonde one at least tried to act like she cared, but the brunette didn’t seem to care at all.
When Kate and Bec meet up with the couple who has the wife with ALS, we see a different side of Kate. Often times individuals with disabilities or special needs are involved in a group therapy environment at some point. Why do you think group therapy is recommended for these
