well meaning (but annoying!) things people say!!

I think the pack of cards is a great idea! Perhaps it could be coloured schemed yellow or red like in football, you could give people a couple of yellows or go straight for a red depending on how p****** off you are!

Regarding heads, I discovered that I have two birth marks on the back of mine, looks like someone has splashed red wine on me. Can’t say it improves the look though…

I dunno though we do have lovely eyes too!! anyone else got that one? couldn’t see them before ??? I must admit this is all so similar but making me giggle too O.K back to naughty corner ! But as least not on my own! xxx

What about this one…I was down street today outside where i work and some customers said …Dont you work in the bakers shop anymore? them being customers whom i have known for a long time i told them i was off work at the mo with breast cancer having chemo. Well they said weve had loads in our family with it ,its just like having a cold now.
Well its a good job i wasnt having a bad week or i would have slapped their stupid faces .Having a cold… how many people have died from that or had to put up with such harsh treatment for months with a common cold!!!

P.s my heads a crap shape dont even have that going for me lol xx

A colleague of mine told me not to worry as she was sure my fabulous sense of humour would get me through the bad days!!! It seemed peevish to tell her that strangely enough I didn’t really feel like having a laugh after my WLE and SNB!!!

I’m loving the pack of cards idea though, brilliant xxx

Oh Ninja, Laugh… that was the best Laugh I have had in months, loved the card idea…old and lumpy,could market that, priceless, Who said BC was’nt a barrel of laughs. Thanks for cheering me up x x

I think my a**s is a better shape than my head - what should I do?

"I think my a**s is a better shape than my head - what should I do? "

Do what I do with my beautifully-shaped head - go walk down the main street with it on show to all and sundry!
<we need=“” photographic=“” evidence=“”></we>

Ah Ha - I need a wig for my are - oh - that’d be a merkin worn backwards then!

That would be a bumkin then? I know back to the corner!!!

The cards would be great I would buy a pack. This thread makes me laugh. When I have my flushed face people say oh you have nice colour !!! And I get the nice shaped head all the time, you really look good ahhhhh

Well once again my homeopathic fiend called to see how I am and as ever the conversation was geared to how wonderful her homeopathic treatments were and did i know how cancer attacks people who are very giving of themselves and nurturing of other people whilst not looking after themselves properly?
Well thats about half the population if we count mothers and carers etc etc!
So Let’s guilt you even more for being a caring individual AND not taking my remedies that could make you so much better!
By her diagnosis she,ll never get cancer!!! Or is this caring giving individual being a bit mean saying that?

“homeopathic fiend” great typo! or was it Freudian or some such? :-))

No you got it right first time :slight_smile:

I get ‘oh just think how great your new boobs will be’ errr no actually they wont be great and my own were flippin fantastic thank you!!!

why do so many people say such insensitive things like this?
i got ‘well you lucky thing thing did you know that when you have a boob job it involves a tummy tuck too’ WHAT!!!
Boob jobs… tummy tucks… ive got cancer darling wanna swop!

I just hate it when people say how good I looked with no hair, being bald isnt so bad (huh, have u ever tried it!!!) and now its started to grow,I get how great it looks, it suits me, ha, well why did they always tell me how great it was waist length, cant have it both ways!!! and then they go on to say, oh well now rads finished u will be back to normal next week, no more appointments!!!arght!!!

Towards the end of my chemo last year one of my friends who had turned out to be less supportive than I had hoped made a cracker of a statement. At this stage I had been hospitalised several times with neutropenic sepsis for quite lengthy periods. There was talk of a night out coming up with a variety of friends. I said I would be happy to go provided I was up to it. Her response was to say "of course you will be fine. Your body is coping with all this a lot better than you think."It was so ludicrous I had to laugh!
AM

My entertainment on Friday was to visit the school of which I am a Governor, for a look round the alterations over the summer and chat with the head. I found him outside and said hello… “be with you in a minute - you look GREAT! You’ve done something to your hair!”… and off he went in the opposite direction for a little while. I fell about! Done something to my hair! Later, he asked about the treatment, cause he knew nothing about it… so I let him off…Jane

now i am back at work everyone still saying how great my hair looks i have
half and inch all over, style suits u ??? what!! its is not a style it can not be brushed any other way than what is growing ??? then they say how i must be feeling great to be normal again, not tired from chemo, or sore from rads, treatment all over so normal!! i did 2 x 4 hours per day im on my back, they then say, oh do u think something is wrong, u should not be so tired now treatment finished&gt;!"%^&???
