Proper Introduction

While I'm sure you mean well with your advice Belinda, Claire and myself have moved into a whole different ball park to you. You see, for us there is no cure and I think both of us are trying to deal with the very real prospect of not being able to do all the things we want in life. I appreciate that your treatment, etc has come to and end, that will not be the case for us, we will have treatment for the rest of our lives. It is by no means that we don't want to talk about things, but you never had to walk into a group of pink sisters who are talking about how happy they are to finish their treatment, having a reconstruction, the fear of reoccurrence blah, blah and have someone ask you about your condition only to have the room go silent because you are stage 4, have you? So while I can appreciate that you are 'out there', I hope you never really 'get us' because that would mean you have joined the even smaller club of advanced breast cancer. I guess unfortunately we don't all get the happy ending and having people constantly shoving their pink positivity down our throats becomes a little tiresome. I really hope I haven't offended you, sometimes I just need to call it how I see it. Deb xx
