      I have a really hard time with the way people talk about cancer and putting in the form of some quantifiable fight. Because it requires fighting in its very nature. It requires insane levels of strength from the get go. But it also requires other things of people...

      It requires vulnerability, and asking for help. It requires loss and scars. And in the end it's not something you beat, it's something you heal. And yes, those who manage this have done something incredible. They deserve the world and towers of diamonds and everything...

      But those who die from cancer fought no less than anyone else. Thus to put it in terms of fight / beating is honestly an insult to their memory. But people keep doing it because the existential dread of the indiscriminate nature of cancer terrifies people, but that's what it is.

      Insult is probably too a strong word. And of course, I get wanting to support and an inspire. It's a really hard thing to find framing for because it goes in a lot of directions and speaks to a lot of different experiences. I guess I'm mostly just arguing for mindfulness of that.

          I think it's fine to say that someone is fighting cancer, I think it is wrong to say that they lost their fight if/when they pass. If they were able to face it with grace and dignity then they won their fight, even if cancer killed them.

          Have you seen the Walgreens commercial where bald and head-scarved women shop for makeup and lotion for their chemo wrecked skin and the tag line is "fight beautifully"? TRULY GROSS.

          One of the most difficult things for humans to deal with is the randomness of fate. We want to believe we are in control even when we are not. Did you know Norm MacDonald has a bit on this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMRd-n_s4c8 …

          It’s the exact same way people talk about disabilities, which I also find highly problematic.

          It feels insulting. My dad was as game a fighter as they come but cancer is a nightmare and not every story has a happy ending. Every time an interview airs where someone claims they fought and won because they fought so good my teeth grind a bit further into dust.
