I volunteered as a step to a fulltime job the last time I was disabled. It was wonderful. You walk in the door and they are so thrilled just to see you. If you do something (anything) they are ecstatic. If you can't make it in they are concerned about you, but certainly not mad. If you want to be appreciated and loved, try volunteering. You can start out slow (2 hours a week) and build up as you can handle it. I volunteered at the Library and at the school computer lab. The library ended up hiring me for a part time job as a children's librarian. It's a great way to get back into working.
