Thank you so much ♥️ Your reply really touched my heart, I just needed some support. Thank you.

My family and I are considering moving to Arizona. We live in the Midwest right now with 4 seasons. I’m concerned that living in a state with more sunshine and heat will trigger more outbreaks as doctors say that is a trigger. Can anyone who lives in a hot sunshine state give me some insight? Do you have a lot of issues with it? Thank you

Hi All. to start this, i’d like to share a little of my story first. I was with someone who was very abusive and unfaithful, long story short — he had herpes and did not tell me. I got pregnant & I contracted herpes in my 3rd trimester and had no clue, contracting it pushed me into labor 3 weeks early (I still didn’t know) and long story short, because of the very rare circumstance that I got it right before I gave birth and didn’t know, my baby got it. By the grace of god they found out very soon and he was given antibiotics instantly which prevented serious problems from occurring. He is perfectly healthy other than H. He is almost 3 now, the first year of his life was hard because he did have to stay on medicine due to outbreaks. I dealt with DEEP DEEP shame and guilt for very long time because I’ve never known of anyone going thru this too. And still don’t. It has gotten a little easier, for 2+ years he hasn’t had any outbreaks but he did just have a small one. It triggers very hard shameful emotions for me and I was wondering if anyone knows of a support group for parents dealing with this problem too, I know it’s very rare that this happens so I just really need support.
