I think every cancer survivor thinks of it no matter how much they want to forget. <BR/><BR/>You cant forget. From now on, who knows that a bakck and blue mark isnt just a nothing. Constant headaches either mean too much chocolate or running for an MRI. People who have been on the other side are always a little hypochodriacal about they way they feel. <BR/><BR/>That said, I have to say that my everyday life is pretty normal. I don't usually wave my IV scarred hand at them, but once in a while it gets to be too much and I just open my mouth and let somebody have it. <BR/><BR/>On this blog, because I only write about stuff that have to do with cancer, you hear the isolated incidents as opposed to the way I really live day to day. <BR/><BR/>I don't ecpect people to treat me a certain way or whatever it is you're implying. I expect people to think befor they comment on something tthats none of their business- like my weight, for instance. I'll only say something like my cancer line if I felt the person was out of line for commenting to me. <BR/><BR/>I dont expect understanding- just common sense. And that has nothing to do with being a survivor- Im sure you wosh the people commenting to you had some of it too.<BR/><BR/>Hope that answers your question.<BR/><BR/>G'mar chasima tova to all!J.A.P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02731016571917740228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21660195.post-23109483107809222172007-09-20T18:42:00.000-04:002007-09-20T18:42:00.000-04:00I know cancer was a huge part of your life and has...I know cancer was a huge part of your life and has made you who you are....and if you want to educate silly people about it-I think its a good thing. Im just abit confused, previously in your blog I got the impression you dont want cancer to follow you around all your life but do you think that simultaneously you want it to and you let it???<BR/>Im naturally thin as well and people are always telling me- have you eaten? You dont eat enough etc etc. I dont launch into my medical background...lots of people have those kind of comments. As my doctor put it (and I am quite underweight) 'they are probably just jealous'<BR/>People dont know your history and you cant expect them to...do you want to educate? Or move on?<BR/><BR/>Seriously I dont mean to be one of those, 'stupid people' I have a close cousin with terminal cancer and all my mothers immediate family were lost to cancer. Its not a taboo for me..but at the same time I dont know even half of what you might expect I should.<BR/><BR/>Am I ignorant??? What do you expect of a stranger in your town?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21660195.post-88137441504456690882007-09-20T17:23:00.000-04:002007-09-20T17:23:00.000-04:00thin2-Id say-"Anorexia?
