I think that you are saying all this because you have never seen someone you love suffering of cancer. I had an aunt who was dying of a cancer and she was there lying on her bed and wanting to die because the pain was unbearable and she wanted to live because her only grandson was one month old.
Another aunt got a breast cancer and went to Mauritius for treatment. None of her children could go with her and she stayed in a public hospital for six months before returning here. I don't know how she dealt with the treatment, with the loneliness and with the financial constraint but she has made it through.
I'm very sad about the way you view people with cancer because no matter how we call them, they are just people who don't want to die. Isn't that a good fight?
Yes, it is insensitive, but like you've mentioned, the person hasn't experienced what you or anyone else with a cancer survivor has. He was asking a question, I don't think he was trying to offend anyone. But I am truly sorry for your sufferings.
IIN, that I think it's RIDICULOUS to call cancer patients "warriors"?
