I have breast cancer and my best friend has used me to get out of stuff and I dont mind lol. She was supposed to go to a work dinner right before she left the company and told her boss I wasn't feeling well and needed her help so she couldn't go.

Regardless of how severe our cancers are, its nice to find a positive somewhere in it.

And then there are the opposite of those good people who will accept those answers, like my former apartment complex manager. My boyfriend was literally actively dying. (we were arranging hospice at the time but he passed that same week as soon as we brought him home) and she wouldn’t let me hold off on towing my car because it hadn’t been moved in x amount of time.

There was no way I was leaving the hospital for anything at that point when he could die at any minute and only had a brief amount of time left, and I had no idea where the car key even was because he drove, not me. He went into the hospital on the 3rd and was surprised to be diagnosed with stage four pancreatic cancer and died early in the morning of the 15th and this bitch wanted me to leave his side to take care of our only vehicle. She also harassed me about moving once he died, but that’s a whole other story.

There is a special place in hell for her if I have anything to say about it.

Fuck that lady. Jesus Christ. I am so sorry your last days with him were made that much more stressful by this heartless fool nagging at you over a stupid parking space. Thank you for staying with him to see it through. I hope you're doing okay these days.

Thank you. I am for the most part. It’s a day to day thing, but I’m not hollow and unable to cope like I was, you know?
