Is that right? Did you really say that?

That's a shocker, @Hoppe ..... downright insensitive and non thinking and non caring.  :(    

Yet - if THEY were in the same situation as you/us, they'd expect your 100%  support!

It’s hard from strangers and worse from so called friends.
i had a friend I thought would be there for me say
”Aren’t  you Done with the boob thing yet”
WTF.. people can be just  weird and  insensitive.

Good on you for getting fitter ..... the only exercise I do is my kayak fishing ...... or I may walk the beach (but only with a fishing rod in hand - so it may take a while to reach the end!   LOL  I haven't beach fished in years!) 

Yep, it is a hard slog - hopefully getting easier with each passing year!  Let us know how your physio goes.  hugs back xx

@arpie lol I think I was too stunned by the first comment and found the second quite funny in retrospect.  I hope you are well. I am trying to get fitter. And get some physio this year. It's a long haul, isn't it? Xxxhugs

Bloody AMAZING what they come up with, @viking1  ..... OMG ..... I think I would have given them each a back hander!!   Hope all is good with you xx

@viking1 Wonderful to see you round these parts again! How are you travelling? K xox

I told my dad I had breast cancer first, then my sister.  She said "Is that the official diagnosis?"  I said yes, I needed surgery, chemo and radiation. She said, "Well, the chemo and radiation are going to kill you anyway."  I didn't say anything but the next day she said she wanted to apologise as she MAY have said the wrong thing! Possibly!
I quite liked the response from a 'friend' whose brother I had been dating. Sadly his wife had passed away early in their marriage in a car accident.  When I told my friend she said "Maybe it's best if you just stay as friends with my brother …. He's already had one wife die on him."  I thanked her for her thoughtfulness, but until then hadn't really considered dying … especially not on top of someone!

Many Thanks  for that, @sister ..... looks like my mob sat on the fence too!   LOL  I will check out that link with interest!!!
