Does anyone here have a serious invisible disability or chronic illness and, if so, do you think it’s better to tell your firm about this or hide it because of the stigma (you are weak, might drop the ball, etc)? I read an article about a Skadden partner who hid her cancer diagnosis and I am wondering about this. Do you think this changes for mental v physical v neurodiverse people? Anyone know firms who support lawyers w disabilities? I am aware of the ADA but my question is not strictly legal.

Hello Fishes,

I have got my L2 Dependent Visa stamped for the US through the Wife's organization and she has booked the tickets for the both of us in the next weekend.
