Thank you for the excellent article. I would add, "Stay strong," and "Keep fighting," to your list.
Often when I receive platitudes or empty compliments like these I feel irritation or anger. I know the speaker means well and doesn't understand but I still have a visceral reaction. I have found it helps to tell myself that such comments come from a lack of knowing what to say combined with a genuine feeling of sympathy. So I feel sorry for them, a bit, in their lack of ability to better communicate their supportive feelings. I may share this article with selected friends and family.
