As far as work goes, they all seemed to forget that I have stage 4 cancer after a while. I didn't look sick, and honestly, they had other things on their mind. It's not really there in interactions with my family either, except if I tell them a test result or make a joke about it. They see me up and about and living a normal life, and that's good enough for them.

That is great to hear that you had no problem at work . What a relief !
My husband made a mistake of telling about his heart event 20 year ago to his boss and coworkers - he got "package" during the first reorganization even thou he had amazing performance evaluations and was in high position. His friend who was diagnosed with cancer had the same thing happen in different company. Lessons hard learned 🙁 I always laugh at the inscription on Statue of Liberty XP
