[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was in this place and if you were not a close friend I would not have been happy to have you in our family’s business. People can say it’s just like any other illness but the truth is it’s not. We did not spread this news around and I would have been really upset that people I didn’t know well were chatting about it. I only told some friends at the office, in part because I took FMLA leave.[/quote] I’m sorry that you have experienced this, but the stigma that you are perpetuating put your loved one even more at risk. It is OK to except help from others when you have a person who has symptoms of an illness that can be deadly. Hiding And shame only makes it worse for everyone who suffers, and it cuts you off from support and help that could potentially be there for you as well.[/quote]
