The best one of many ,at xmas I hadn't seen this person in a few years, I was feeling pretty well tired on xmas day and told this person we were leaving oh why is that ,oh have breast cancer.omg omg omg she keep saying as well as flapping her arms around me,I thought she was going to have a heart attack. In the end I just told her to calm down I was fine .my brother inlaw said even before I had a complete diagnosis said oh well what do you need 2boobs for anyway not as if you are going have more kids , I had a lumpectomy in the end.HONESTLY !!!!!!!!!!hmmmmmm. I forgave him for his insensitive comment

I had a weeper yesterday. My husband finally told an old friend about my BC and his wife got on the phone, insisted on talking to me and burst into tears. So I was comforting her. I didn't really mind, she's a good woman, but a wee part of me was "really?!"

@kmakm Exactly !

@Flaneuse Oh ffs!

I have only been on this journey for a few months so haven’t had too many of the inappropriate comments but if I don’t manage to hold onto my hair that may well change. I just have one girl at work who has to do the “one up” thing all the time so every time I mention something about me she either turns it back around to be about her or tells me about a friend who is having a worse experience. I don’t deal with stupid people well at the best of times so I will struggle to not slap someone at some stage I think!!

A neighbour from around the corner, whom I haven't seen in months, stopped his car in front of my driveway late yesterday. I was out cutting some herbs for dinner. His mother had told me recently that he knew I had cancer. This guy is late 30s and a high school teacher. He lowered the car window and called "Hi, what have you been up to?" I said in an astonished tone, "What have I been UP TO ???!!!" He gestured at my turban - "Well, apart from that." I said, "Well, I still have five months of chemo to go." He said, "But are you feeling better now?" Arrggghhh.

Not to do  with our situation, but something said that was just as ...duhhh... as the above. My sister-in-law had twins, a boy and a girl. Someone stopped her whilst pushing them in their pram and asked if they were twins, She said that indeed they were. The following comment was "Oh how cute...a boy and a girl....are they identical?
