Here's a little guide of what to do and more importantly what not to do when talking to someone with angiosarcoma
1. Don't say: Oh, I know lot's of people with breast cancer and they're all fine, you'll be fine!!
Do say: Wow, that sucks, I've never heard of that kind of cancer, can I bake you something?
2. Don't say: My uncles cousins brother was told he had 4 hours to live and now he's the president and CEO of his own fortune 500 company
Do say: I'm so sorry to hear that, why don't I cook you something for you.
3. Don't say: My life is sooooo wonderful, I have everything I could have possibly ever dreamed of, how are feeling today?
Do say: My life would be better if I could think outside myself for a minute and clean your house for you:):):):):):)
4. Don't say: nothing
Do say: normal things about everyday life, I'm still living it folks, and if you really don't know what to say, express it in cupcakes
Well said! I'm trying to figure out a way to send you food :) I may have to send you to the food in order to accomplish it but it'll be a treat. Aaah haaa there may be another way, just need to see if Worster/Oxford area has the receiving end to the L'burg sending end.
