Passed the 5 years on Tamoxifen, but my doc wants me to go  another 3 years ‘cause there was 8 ‘cancer foyer’ in the mass they took out. Doing well, but really struggling when let’s say we’re having family over and politics gets talked. I can talk them under the table, but, after a while, my heart starts feeling tense and I tell them I want to argue differently because I have no time to loose. I wanna discuss and laugh, not fight. I’m being left to feel that ‘the conversation was not about that (your cancer). My husband had prostate cancer about 3 years ago, but, he opted to have it removed. Cancer, for him, is gone. But me, I feel alone, despertly alone among cancer-free people who don’t want to give me the time of day. 

The worst, is that I am a kind soul who spreads love everyday  

Any advice about dealing with never-had-cancer-people?

Lots-o-love.
