Just an observation:)
Hello ladies, was just doing some thinking today, you know how it is. All of my family and friends have been so supportive since I was diagnosed with BC. There have been a couple of friends, not perh...

Hi Hazel,
So far I have only been surprised by a couple of one in-law who hasn't even contacted me to have a chat. I though we were close as always have a great time together when we catch up. My work colleagues mostly all talk and ask heaps of questions and have kept me busy with texts and FB etc. Some smile and haven't mentioned anything. I expected these different reactions from past experience of losing my daughter 4 days after birth. Like the other ladies have said, mostly people don't want to evoke sad feelings in us and some are just plain uncomfortable witht he whole cancer deal.
I have been very surprised by the number of people who I haven't seen for ages to be the most supportive. In fact one of these ladies is coming to visit me today. I am ever so grateful for her.
It is an interesting observation of human behaviour Hazel and I agree with what the other ladies have said.
Keep smiling Hazel and brush off the thoughts of rejection by those who avoid you and cling onto and remember all the wonderful people who love you and are there for you.
Very best wishes
Joy
