I would say as you put it "dumb." They do not even need to say anything related to the condition. Support is what is needed. Not Dr. Google Opinions not asked for makes the situation worse whether it is with good intentions or not. Listening is a great way to support! I cannot tell you how many people through the year's seem to have the answers for you! No., please just support unless I ask for your opinion!

The problem is they just come out and tell you, and often with an authoritative tone. Even worse they tell you things that they have obviously known for some time. I simply ask the nurses and doctors and almost always they will at least give me at least an indication of how things are and are going.
