Yes Kelly, that's a great example of someone actually being insensitive and rude...so's kj's "The skinny ones die" .....

Not on Cf, but I got one yesterday with someone saying, in regards to remarriage "Allie, it's like a dress, you get one, it wears out, and you get rid of it and get a new one!"

I agree that the comment was insensitive, but I really don't think it was meant to be, if you know what I mean? I for one, wouldn't have said it. I am a parent of a CFer though, so my feelings and thoughts will be different of a person with CF. I hope I've said this without offending anyone. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif" border="0">

The only Insensitive remark that I
have ever let bother was when I was
8 when I was dx, the doctoe told my Mother
that I would not make to 18, That remark has been
in the back of my mind all through my life.It make
not do some things I would have done, even when I past
the 18 year point, it was still there. My brother ( Franky )
passed from Cf , he was 27 , I was 14 at the time.
So that added to my fear and the closer I got to 27
the more it was in my head.

Also we talk about Franky and my Brother David
just like we do of all the other Members of my Family.
They have both passed, But they will forever be
members of My Family.......

All through my life time I have come in contact
with tactless people, A LOT of the Med students
and doctors, to them I always said the same thing,
F U !!!!!!! I am a Med student and Interns Nightmare!!!!!!!
If I hear them talking about me as if I am a Lab Rat,
I get on there A S S es with both feet.

I had a guy ask me to Stop coughing one time.
He said he didn't want to catch what I had,after I
stopped laughing and coughing again ,I told him there
was no way he could catch Cf. I told him it is not like
a cold or flu. I told him Cf is something many people are
born with. he said, you mean like a retard., So I knocked
the H ell out of him and left. Problem solved...........

About 4 weeks after my newborn son was diagnosed with CF I found a lump in my breast. Well my OB sent me to have an ultrasound performed to check out the lump. Well the US tech. knew of my son's recent diagnosis with CF and begins to tell me that her friend has two children with CF........*then hesitates with silence----rewinds.......and corrects herself.... DID have two children with CF, she lost her son at 2 years of age. I thought who is this incentive witch who fells she has to tell me of her friends most recent loss......not only that but to go back and correct herself.....why not just realize some things are better left unsaid? I will never forget how insensitive this girl was and to top it off....she herself was 9 months pregnant. I was one scared mama of a new recently diagnosed newborn at that point and had already cried my eyes out many of nights wondering about my sons future with this disease.


Thankfully, I am educated about CF now and am more positive about my son's future and realize that her son's passing so soon from the disease is not the norm. But still......................

What I think is Insensitive
is people trying to shove death down our throats......

We all F ing know what the end result will be.

You know,sometimes I feel as if people
think bad things about me because
I have lived as long as I have with Cf.

I met some one who said to me, don't you all die in
your 20's or 30's........
