I can’t hear you, what?
drew:
“I’m so sorry to hear about your diagnosis”
“That i’m an asshole? Hell, I’ve known that for 29 years.”
*whispers* “No….the Cancer” *whispers*
Why do people whisper when they say the word Cancer? Cancer is an awful thing. It has taken people that I care deeply about away from me. And others have gone through the same thing, and with themselves as well.
But why are we afraid to talk about it? Why is a Cancer diagnosis instantly a death sentence? If we want to cure something, why not talk about it….A LOT! And LOUDLY.
Don’t be afraid.
Get up. Yell “CANCER”. Like 10 times. Get used to it. Get it out of your system. Bring it up to loved ones and friends. Read news about cancer breakthroughs, give to charities.
Speak up so I can hear you. And so you can hear yourself.
