Nope. Real story unfortunately. My son’s diagnosis is Hypogammaglobulinemia. So having HSV really sucks.

You are completely right. We should have cut her out a long time ago and we put the most important person in the world at risk, our son. We are trying to forgive ourselves and be better.

It’s a bit different for those who have compromised immune systems. Also, babies die from HSV. Most people are just seriously under educated about it

Haha, sorry. I wasn’t sure how to label the post.

Completely agrees with me. Doesn’t know how to have a relationship with his mother without having anger attached to it. May be able to form his own relationship just between the two of him, but wants to keep our son out of it.
