BW, I can definitely understand why the example you raised is stressful, and I'd feel exactly the same. But deciding to tell people about IVF treatment or cancer treatment is a choice. There's no rule to say you can't tell people about it and help them to understand (not that I've told anyone apart from the eseentials at my work mind you, same for DW). Whilst that example is understandable and a cause of stress, I still don't see it as being in the same league as cancer in any way. Of course, other people may disagree.
