Advice from R. Eric Thomas.
I am in my 70s, and for the last couple of decades I have had occasional coughing fits that are triggered by talking too long and/or too loudly. When these fits happen, I literally can’t talk or stop coughing for several minutes. I’ve been to several doctors but have not been able to get a clear diagnosis or effective treatment.
When I am talking to others, should I warn them at the beginning of the conversation that I might start coughing and have to interrupt the conversation, either by hanging up the phone or walking away until the fit ends? If so, how should I explain it? I don’t want to give them my medical history, and I don’t want them to think that I’m sick or contagious.Everybody’s body does strange things from time to time. I’m sorry that your body is doing something that’s causing you social anxiety.
They feel that taking any formal action could create major upheaval, however, some family members are urging them to report. They want to find a way to first protect their daughters and inform the uncle he will never be allowed to be alone around their kids again.– Concerned Neighbor: Report it. I can’t emphasize enough how important it is to take action now to protect these children, and other children the uncle may come in contact with.
This will begin an investigation. It is not a trial and it is not a verdict. Often, it’s easy for our thinking to snowball through potential consequences and overwhelm us. By telling the authorities what they know, these parents are fulfilling their duty to their children and entrusting trained professionals with the next steps.
