Like others my biggest pet hate of all the things said to me was "stay positive". I heard it said in so many different ways, but most of all when people were telling me how to beat breast cancer, ie they's say "stay positive and you will beat this." Does that mean for every woman or man out there that has died from breast cancer, they have died because they weren't positive? Stupid, stupid, STUPID INSENSITIVE thing to say...... sorry... it just gets me SOOOO worked up.
The next worst thing was when people said that chemo was ineffective, never really worked and was only invented by pharmaceutical companies for big money.
