I'm going to scream!!!!!! Tell me why do friends ,family,etc do that? I know they mean well but it makes me feel like they think I'm going to die! It really irritates me. Anyone feel the same way?
Most people don't know how to react to cancer. As a 2 time thyroid cancer survivor I know what you mean. Yes, one of these days we will die but what matters is that we live each day like it's our last. My husband and I have learned from my second surgery that life is too precious to be stuck in denial, hate and all those negative ways. It's better to live a positive life no matter what happens. We strive each day to make life worth living. I know I get tons of e-mail angels but find comfort in them instead. Right now, most of my communications are through e-mail.
May you find peace within yourself. Take Care & God Bless.
