Oh yes, I’m with you all the way. I hate the sympathetic looks, the ‘how do you feel’ questions. One of my so called friends, saw me in town yesterday, turned on her heel and walked away. Great.
I’m part of a small group who meet weekly. Two have had breast cancer. Their reactions surprised me. One insisted she show her scars and tattooed nipple. The other said, ‘well that’s you done for’ and told me - and the whole group - about what she went through. Almost like she enjoyed watching my reaction. I can’t believe someone who has been on this journey herself would be so vindictive.
That’s my rant done. To be fair, most people have been great.
