Sh*t People Say When You Have Cancer 

The weight loss one is so true. Someone told me I was lucky because I can eat whatever I want.

ugh people can be so thoughtless - thanks for sharing this

Agreed. I am so tired of people telling me that their great grandparent's cousin's sister's roommate's brother-in-law's friend had cancer far worse than what I have.

Wow. First day back to work after my diagnosis. I really needed this video. Thank you

I laughed because they laughed but really felt it when they cried or appeared really hurt as they were reading...no way to go around it, cancer is simply frightening 😞🙏

A friend just recently told me There is nothing we can do. That is God’s Will... Knowing me though, I responded. Wait till you have cancer and repeat that advice to yourself. And see if it doesn’t hurt still. My point, it is better to tell someone who has cancer that you are there to listen to them no matter what and do it. Being a good listener and being there for your sick friend is what truly matters.

I experienced cancer before when I was 22. I recently was dating a man that didn't believe in my story. At the start I didn't know why. Since I'm mentally still healing from all that I survived. He told me to stop lying and that I never had cancer. He told me his aunt died from cancer. But he kept pushing me. Is very hard. I personally had people that died from cancer, I didn't and all that I survived has shaped me into who I am now. I wish he would understand and appreciate me because I fought the hardest fight I could. He is too blind because of what happened with his aunt that he rejects me. Is sad. Any help?

the thing that pisses me off the most is when people keep saying think positive that pisses me off so bad. I'm going threw the worse time in my life and you keep hownding me to be positive. I mean to me they are saying we are not allowed to be upset pissed or angry and need to cry wew can not be fun and bubbly and thinking positive all the times. And now that i am terminal my family keeps on saying pray to Jesus to heal you. hes still in the miracle business and I'm like I AM TERMINAL accept it. That hurts when they say that, because when I'm not healed and laying in my bed with 24 hours or less of life left in me i will think Jesus didn't heal me so he don't love me and i don't want to die thinking like that. Man some people think they are helping but not thinking it all the way threw. So i wont be here next year at this very time, WOW that hits me to the core

What are some nice things you could say instead of these?

Not everyone looses weight when they have cancer.
