I understand the venting. Had someone sending me nutrition books when my son was going through chemo for leukemia. First thought was "does this person think my son got leukemia from a bad diet?" I am sure that was not the intent but to give us some ideas on how my son could eat certain foods to help him recover from chemo. So yeah, folks have to be careful how 'advice' is received.

Another guy told me to take my son off chemo and use all natural sources. I asked him nicely for the medical studies on people who did this for their children....silence. What nut of a parent is going to experiment on their kids if carrot juice kills cancer cells? None that I know of.

Yes, the 'experts' all come out when someone ELSE is sick.

I hear you.

And cancer isn't cancer. There are many different types that people don't take into account.

And differing situations. Someone with teeth can eat stuff I can't. That was operative before treatment started. When people lose weight, suddenly, not only do their pants not fit anymore... their teeth don't fit right anymore. People with teeth tend to have NO clue about that.

Anyway.. I'm just ranting and POed with unthinking people that really do have the best in mind.

It's very difficult for me to be nice, even though people really do care and are sincere.

I miss out on seeing the concern and go directly for the clueless BS they are sincerely putting out.

Grump.. LOL!
