When did Rehab become a bad word?

A friend just emailed asking to meet for lunch, "I assume you're tied up in rehab but thought i'd ask..." Rehab?! I cringed at the reference. But why should that word bother me? Why do I feel shame with the association? Perhaps Rob Ford is to blame.

Clearly I need to reframe & reclaim the word. Therapy is an acknowledgment of what is; it's a vulnerable request for help. There is no shame in that.

So in response to the question. Yes, we are in rehab this week and Marlowe is responding so well! 

This journey is opening my eyes and challenging my perceptions. I'm grateful for the teaching.
