A childhood belief about periods

I thought that a period was a serious illness and that when you had it no one except the "guy, Nocoligist" (yes Nocholigist being his name, nd guy always refering to him), could be in the same room as. So when I found out the when I was around 10-13 i was going to start getting my period every month I thought I had some disease that caused me to to get this serious illness every month. Then I realized this happened to all females and wondered who was replacing my mom during hers...i had a lot of figuring out to do.
