Hi Calvin. When I was recovering from my bone marrow transplant (I had CML 6 years ago), my family had some trouble dealing with it as well. I guess what they needed to know was that I would be okay. During the early part of my convalescing stage, I had to wear a surgical mask when I around other people. A lot of people felt a bit put off by it because it probably made them feel unsanitary. It's basically an ego thing and a very human reaction. They usually felt better when I kept a positive attitude about everything and, in doing so, also became supportive. It's hard for a person to see their loved one go through what we go through because they feel so powerless in regards to how they could help us make it better. I know that I would be if the shoe was on the other foot. Feel free to send me an e-mail at this site. Hope that everything works out well for and may the LORD GOD be with you always. Sincerely, Angel72960
