AWAKE.........

Sorry just need to scream ARGHH!
Just been in card shop to get sympathy card for neighbour and alongside sympathy were  get well cards in the middle of both I noticed another card . Not sure where they thought it fitted in best as was in between both .

It was a “sorry to hear you have cancer”  card !  The message was ..Cancer is tough but you are tougher .

I know this may be ok for some but if someone had sent me this i would  have needed a **** off card .

Ok I feel better now 

That’s just tacky, Northerner! I agree, I’d be furious.

Anyone noticing hay fever is suddenly bad the last few days? I’ve had a few sneezing fits when I’ve been outside a lot and this evening it’s been really bad, nose and eyes running too.

I would just have been happy to receive a card to be honest

To be fair, I received a lovely card from my sister who had kindly stayed away from me last aug/sept as she works ina school whilst I was having my radiotherapy and the card said congratulations, no more or you’ve finished radiotherapy.  It was a lovely thought but yes I would have cringed at the cancer card Northerner.

And yes moomy I've not been out house today but been sneezing like mad as some of the windows are open. I too have been suffering mainly with runny eyes. I have stronger antihistamines but struggle to swallow them so rely on the over the counter ones.

Owww Northerner, what a card!! what a flipping card..... worst still imagine receiving this ..... 

So the person buying it might thing its appropriate because its for sale - the person receiving the card - well it can of course depend on where about they are in their journey or how their journey is panning out......

My own thoughts .... not sure if its right word, but I feel the message is condescending ...... it's not about being tough or strong - we have no choice arrrghhhhh

Can I have a few of the your new  **** off designed cards please

Hope you all have a good evening..... sunshine and clear sky may be on the way yahhhhy xxxx  

Northernerlet's start a business of inappropriate greeting cards.  I'll start with

• -sorry you are dying
  
  
• Congratulations on being next in line for angel wings
• Congratulations on your replacement dog/cat etc 
• Only the good due young 
• You didn't really want another birthday 

Acceptable cards

• Please let me punch the next person who says you will be fine because their aunt's, uncle, neighbours, brother's wife was !
• Please let me shoot the next person who says "at least you don't need to shave your legs"

Great suggestions, all (love yours, Grogg!) 

night night Fruit Loops, sleep well and stay safe

plenty of sleepy fairy dust for all who wish (and hope it doesn’t add to the sneezing!)

Talking of tactless, after my surgery HR at work rang up and asked me if I was going to die

Did you say " sorry you too late, I no longer exist "
