Are others afraid they'll get sick?

I haven't seen my parents in 2.5 years, and I wonder if I ever will again. They live 1,000 miles away. They are great people, and they have been so good to me. But, I wonder, are some relatives or friends afraid they could possibly get CFS by being in close proximity to us? Or is that just all in my head? Any thoughts about that?

One of the first things I say to people when they realize something is wrong is that "it's not contagious or terminal". Even if I don't say cfs I often say that much.
I know it is very uncomfortable to do so, but it might be a good idea to contact your parents and tell them this. Also let them know that while you are not up to the trip due to cfs/finances you would love it if they are ever up to paying you a visit. People do sometimes give me that look when I seem off. I mean if you don't know I have cfs, you might be thinking, "if you're that sick than why are you here exposing the rest of us?" After explaining that look goes away.
