Not knowing

[karina]

Hello all! First of all, I apologyze in advance if I might make some mistake in writing, english is not my native language. I must admit I knew just the name of SB as long as I met on the web a person who has this disease. We became friends, but we still know each other from a short time. I don't want to push him to answer my questions about his disease, on the other hand I'd like to know more about it to better understand him. How can I be a good friend for him? Thanks a lot. :)

Welcome Karina
Your english is very good - don't worry about it.
I just want to make one small point, SB is not a "disease".
A person with SB is not ill from it. It is a disability just like being deaf or losing a leg in an accident. Having SB can make a person more likely to suffer from certain illnesses, but that is a different matter

Regards

Roger

P.S.What is your native language?
