Supposedly the three of us are car pooling together, but no word yet if that is still the plan. If not, I will probably go on my own in the next few weeks.

I'm glad it is working out, that you were able to adress it with them and feel heard, that you received apologies and can move forward. And that (hopefully) your long friendships have not been marred. And maybe it will start a conversation among yourselves on what each wants/needs in certain situations, because as another poster stated, eventually there will be more hospital stays and illnesses. My mother is trying to help her best friend who is having undiagnosed heart problems. The friend's husband is falling apart and is NO help, so my mom is trying to be a steady shoulder for her to lean on. Everyone needs different things and can give in different ways.
