You're not hiding anything, so... If he doesn't bring it up, I probably would, because I hate walking around with a secret like this (but that's just me). I recently told a man I've started dating that I have MS. (Actually, he's an old boyfriend from a zillion years ago.) I told him on our second date and his reaction was surprisingly good. He said, " Oh, that's what Joan Didion, the author has, and she's fine most of the time. " I told him all about LDN and my belief that I will not experience disease progression. In other words, I think there's something to be said in how we present things. It's a very difficult issue, isn't it? We want to be honest, but self-protective, simultaneously... ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the Internet in years - Juno SpeedBand!
