Me too. If people ask, i tell them. People take your lead- so when they see that i'm open about it, it makes them more comfortable. My friends love my vest. They think it's the coolest thing ever.
My sociology class once visited me in the hospital<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif" border="0">.
As for relationships, it hasn't affected me. I'm not sure what will happen when i get into serious marrige type stuff, but i figure that if he's not okay with it, then i dont want him.
I've only really had one person who was really nasty after i did my whole CF sphiel. She kept insisting that i had SARS and that my doctor was lying to me because of some government/drug company scheme to make money(!?).
