    Cepacia has ruined my relationship with my sister

    sdelorenzo - Are you concerned about cross-contamination in general? Is your sister-in-law not? How do your family functions work? At mine, my sister and I sit the farthest away from each other that is possible, I wipe down surfaces often and wash my hands a lot (in a sink that has presumably...

    Cepacia has ruined my relationship with my sister

    Allisa35 - Thank you very much for your point of view. It helps to hear something from someone who actually at least thought they were in my situation. There are little differences, but it just isn't the same unless it's someone in your immediate family who is affected and you are not. Do you...

    Cepacia has ruined my relationship with my sister

    Thanks for your reply! I have not considered getting my social worker involved. I've thought that maybe we need therapy - I wonder if my family would ever agree to it. I know my sister is seeing someone and my parents have wanted me to see the same person to patch up our relationship. I...

    Cepacia has ruined my relationship with my sister

    Thank you so much for your support! My sister does go to the same clinic and actually has one of the same doctors as me. The problem is that whenever he talks to my dad (who is particularly bad about this) and her, they remember the conversation as being different than it was. My one nurse...

    Cepacia has ruined my relationship with my sister

    Thank you so much for your reply. I wonder if we go to the same hospital too because I've heard of a patient who had cepacia who was fine and then when his/her sibling got it and he/she died. It made me scared about how differently I would manage with it. I go to UH. Anyway, it is a horrible...

    Cepacia has ruined my relationship with my sister

    I am in a tough situation and (fortunately, I suppose) I haven't found anyone else who is in it. My sister has CF and has had cepacia for several years now. Since I also have CF, I have put forth great efforts to avoid getting it. I've moved out of my home, I wear a mask when I'm around them...
