And I had a woman whose husband died of CC who said to me, "Oh, you are not facing anything like we did. Treatments have gotten so much better now." Seriously? Needless to say, I avoid her, too. Note the royal "we".

Then when I try to explain, no one wants to listen. You can see them tuning out. I guess it's too much to thinkthat someone at my age in good Heath is facing this disease.
