Hi Josie,
I think some people can't handle the whole cancer thing or even just medical problems in general.They don't know what to say to you for fear of upsetting you or fear you might rabbit on about gory details or your emotions.This may make them feel uncomfortable to be around us.My 2 sisters have never had anything wrong with them and are not medically inclined.If I go into too much gory detail I can see them literally squirming in their chairs.They have avoided me somewhat.But that's ok because they really don't understand.I don't take it personally and hey,who wants to hang around a hypochondriac!

luv Tonya xx
