......someone says "but you're looking so well...."  I'll either burst into tears or deck them.

Good luck, Dave.

  • Hi  (Dave).. Oh yes, this is so irritating isn’t it. Are we only allowed to look like we are at death’s door when we have stage 4 cancer? Are they trying to say they don’t believe us? Is it belittling how awful we may feel despite “looking well”. I find myself telling people “I may not look like I have stage 4 cancer, but….”  Perhaps I should just stop.

  • Not just me then! If I can be bothered I settle for "rearrange deceptive and appearances....."
