My Family Member Doesn't Accept the Diagnosis

We all have those family members who just aren’t showing up or who act like the diagnosis doesn’t exist!

What do you do? Should you be angry, talk about them, give them the cold shoulder, or allow them to come around when they can? We all handle things differently, but one thing I’m trying to teach everyone (myself included) is that love covers so much. Lead with love.

Give them time. Be patient. Give them educational materials. Listen to them. And if all else fails 👉🏾CONTINUE TO DO THE WORK!

Our LOs need us, and fighting and trying to make someone accept what they aren’t ready to see YET diminishes the work.
