    I hope you’re feeling better.

    It’s so irritating when people pull this religious BS on sick people. I was diagnosed with three forms of cancer and facing surgery and an uncertain future. The number of people who told me “I’ll pray for you” was shocking. Like, I need someone to do my laundry or bring me some groceries, not sit on their ass and feel bad.

    • I’ve noticed the more west you go the less considerate people become. My eastern friends really spoiled me whenever I would be sick or even just going through tough times. Now I offer to help whenever someone says they’re sick and I live further in the west and people get so confused by being offered kindness which should really be the basic decency. :/
