Oh I fully agree. Those were the exceptions and not the rule, thankfully. I have noticed since getting cancer that several people in my life seem uneasy and don't really know how to talk to me anymore. I wish that they just continued to treat me the same way they always had, but I've heard this is a common thing so I may just have to let it go because just as many have gone out of their way to help me.

There are a lot of elderly widows in my neighborhood and I guess word got around because they all started bringing me food. I don't have the heart to tell them that I can't eat three tuna casseroles, and as much as my dog would love them I don't think it's a good idea 😃.
