There aren't any rules.I confided in the friend who had come to the diagnosis with me and we kept it to ourselves for a few days.

I made this visual below as a powerpoint back in the early days (got a "little" more flashy now!) and I recognise that because of that it's meaning it's probably fairly poignant for this period of time so I haven't changed it from how I felt then.
