I am really starting to HATE this word! It seems to be used more and more! I hold my hands up, as yes I have used it too! But you know what, there is no 'just' in all this!
I met with a friend yesterday she also has Secondary Breast Cancer. We were chatting about things in general when she made a comment about something she read online. Ladies almost comparing their cancer and how one was worse off than the other…
