we posted that we didn't think people were insensitive, it's just that people don't really know what to say....the word cancer scares and confuses everyone, not just the ones who have it
I would just take these offhand remarks with a grain of salt and just let it slide..this is where a local support group helps...fellow cancer fighters are more sensitive to what you are going through, and surrounding myself with only survivors keeps my hope up and positive outlook
I just smile and say "thanks" and move on when I hear seemingly insensitive remarks...luckily enough people would say the RIGHT things to me that it offsets the stupid responses
