Re: Cancer Etiquette: Talking to Someone With Cancer

Pinkpeonie,
Shame on that teacher...I think you should meet with her in person and
1. give her the list of tips.
2. Nothing worse than an educated ass.
3. Do meet with her and let her know she really upset your daughter who has enough on her young innocent plate without the teacher adding unnecessary nonsense.
4. Have a discussion with the principle and inform him of this as his employee (that teacher) needs help in how to treat the students who are in her charge.

It always concerns me when teachers like this have contact with our children and their young minds.

It is so natural to feel extreme fatigue from the radiation treatments.
In fact it takes some time to regain your energy level and of course everyone is different. Be patient with yourself....it does take some time but it will come back.

Best Wishes,
Jean
