Right. To anyone who is either falsely or truly upset at my being "tired of hearing about cancer", I say this: who isn't? I am tired of hearing about it because it is a depressing subject. Because it seems to be on the rise. Because we can't seem to do anything about it no matter how hard we try. It is a scary subject, and it has been draining me with its persistant media presence. Because some of my relatives have died from it or have suffered from it. I was not just brushing off the subject: "Oh, Buffy, I am so dreadfully TIRED of this cancer business taking up such valuable commercial time?" It should be the "American Symbol" because America's population is the most cancer-ridden in the world. Perhaps that's the price of first place. I am tired of hearing about cancer because it gets me as down as the next person to even hear the word. I was trying to alleviate my own cancer angst. Gimme a break with the false outrage. And sorry if I caused the real stuff. I'm grumpy.
