I'm by nature a cheery/smiley individual and one of those who grit their teeth and manage a smile through pain or adversity and even make a joke of things.
I would say that my D can vouch for the fact that I've never bothered her in any way with anything as I aim never to be a trouble/worry to her in my later years, or anyone if I can help it.
Being this way makes you stronger and releases all the good endorphins that keep you reasonably fit and well.
Please hold my dear GD in your heart for a few days.
