      Once she told me I looked up men that stuck with relationships after diagnosis… And struggled to find anyone. Then I looked up support groups. Changing the locks after diagnosis, not picking them up from the hospital and blocking their numbers. Breaking up completely healthy relationships, over something they had no control over. Scared the shit out of me. We weren’t serious before that but I didn’t want her to have to go through that. Let alone not be able to afford treatment… That’s a whole other horror story…
