Cancer (2) Chronicles (7:14): part 2

~ warriorgoodfight7x7

PSA: There is no “good” cancer. There are subtypes, varieties and stages of every cancer. There are also RARE mixed sclerosing cancers that tend to come back. So please, never tell somebody with cancer that at least they have a GOOD CANCER. Yes, God is good. Cancer is not-especially in the context of 10,000 other health problems. Not to mention surgery, loss of an important gland, and radiation for starters.

  1. Horrified that this is an actual ‘thing’ people tell someone with cancer. “At least you have a good cancer?”
    Really?! What is WRONG with people?

    I don’t have cancer, so I get the, “At least you don’t have cancer,” card played all the time when I meet new people. I want to say, “No, I don’t have cancer. I just have multiple, debilitating, chronic illnesses that have no cure. Lucky me!”

    For some reason they think that minimizing the situation will make us feel happy and grateful. In reality, it just makes us feel like our suffering is being brushed off as not a big deal. And that is hurtful.

    1. You are so very right, thank you for your kind words too. Yes, maybe they are trying to minimize it to make me feel better. It certainly does not have that effect on me, lol. I have thyroid cancer for the second time. The pathology of the first cancer was rare, ect. As if Chronic Illness wasn’t a heavy enough load, and now this….this-is where my faith comes in. Thank God I have faith..
      Thanks so much for replying. I’m going to check out your blog for sure! Xo-J

      1. I remind myself that God didn’t promise us comfort or ease here. He just promised to be with us the whole way: and one day, to take us to a place where there won’t be any more suffering.

        Our suffering now is not even worth comparing to the glory that is coming xx
