  12. Starting School, Do I disclose my status???

    Welcome. Isn't it wonderful to have a forum like this?? I found that I was asking too many humans for their opinion, when what I really needed to do was find the quiet and pray for the answer. I...

  14. Starting School, Do I disclose my status???
