Strong Heart Now @StrongHeartNow1 @stales I kid you not: "It's so wonderful you will get to see Jesus before the rest of us!" That was in 1984... Somehow I need to find out if the woman who said that is still here. Perhaps she got to me him before me afterall.... #bcsm | |

Liz 🌊 🌊 🌊 🌊 @lizard817 T1: For me it’s always been that I could get hit by a bus #bcsm | |
Stephanie Graff, MD, FACP, FASCO @DrSGraff @stales I always think of @UzmaMD and her bouquet of Kale when I start thinking about the ridiculous stuff people say to persons living with cancer. #bcsm https://t.co/6GM7WlcTmb | |
Beverly A. Zavaleta MD @BZavaletaMD @LT_Lymphomie @stales Outrageous! #bcsm. | |
Dr. Kelly Shanahan @stage4kelly T1. You mean besides a member of the medical staff, at the holiday staff party the year after I was diagnosed with #MBC, saying to me “wow, you look good. I thought you were dead”? #bcsm | |
Double Whammy @double_whammied @DrAttai @stales Timely topic! #bcsm | |
Erika Hamilton, MD @ErikaHamilton9 @LT_Lymphomie @stales No ma’am. Are you kidding me? #bcsm | |

Mighty #HeathenSlut Casey🇺🇦🌟 @MightyCasey A1: My biggest bullet point here (which I remember daily in my advocacy) is how sh**ty some breastcancer-dot-org forum folx were to me btwn surgery (lumpectomy) + adjuvant decision(s) re my exploration of MY values/decision tree. DON'T BE THAT GUY. #bcsm | |
Jamie Holloway, PhD @jamienholloway When it comes to what not to say, I always think of this @emilymcdowell_ empathy card #bcsm https://t.co/D4AAVxgu80 | |
Lex @Lex_in_CO @stales A1: Don’t invite me to your MLM program that has the “Cure” big pharma is hiding 🤦♀️ PLEASE DO NOT #bcsm | |

Danielle Karber @danielle_dk Or how about positivity shaming? People with terminal cancer (or any cancer) are ALLOWED to have bad days. #bcsm | |
Mighty #HeathenSlut Casey🇺🇦🌟 @MightyCasey @BraveBosom #bcsm https://t.co/4subEf9hZB | |
IBC Research Fdn @IBCResearch First thing I was asked “weren’t you getting your mammograms?” As if getting a mammogram prevents cancer. BTW, I was 40 so no, I wasn’t getting mammograms. #bcsm | |
Howard Karpoff @doctorkarpoff RT @stales: T1: T1: Sometimes people just don't know what to say! #BCSM | |

Beverly A. Zavaleta MD @BZavaletaMD T1: How about this, The Denier. “You’ll be fine!!” (said by many acquaintances when confronted with my baldness and deathly pale face) #bcsm | |

Double Whammy @double_whammied @LT_Lymphomie @stales @ErikaHamilton9 Ugh. #bcsm | |
Erika Hamilton, MD @ErikaHamilton9 @IBCResearch Right, the automatic....”so what did you do wrong so I can falsely reassure myself I’ll never be in your shoes?” track of thinking. This happens all the time to people. If it’s not this it’s diet, or exercise, or meat, or something else. #bcsm | |
Dr. Priya Jadeja @drpriyajadeja T1: Hi 👋 #bcsm crew! Checking in from #NewJersey | |
Howard Karpoff @doctorkarpoff RT @stales: T1: Sometimes people just don't know what to say! #BCSM The corollary - people can be well-meaning & stupid at the same time! | |
Alicia C. Staley @stales T2: If you had to write guidelines on how to tell someone about a cancer diagnosis, what would you suggest? #bcsm | |
Beverly A. Zavaleta MD @BZavaletaMD @IBCResearch I had a few women who were acquaintances ask about my diagnosis story in a way that felt voyeuristic. It was weird. #bcsm | |
Coping with Cancer @Coping_Cancer RT @BZavaletaMD: @stales How about this? The best thing anyone ever said to me: @stales How about this? The best thing anyone ever said to me: “I’m here.” Just unconditional support. #bcsm. | |

Erika Hamilton, MD @ErikaHamilton9 RT @stales: T2: T2: If you had to write guidelines on how to tell someone about a cancer diagnosis, what would you suggest? #bcsm | |
Marina @4RiseUp @stales I have an opposite experience. Never even asking how I am. Just going about their own business #bcsm | |

liz @liz_liz_t RT @ErikaHamilton9: I find this fascinating - which drugs most of our 💰is spent on. I certainly expected the new #immunotherapy drugs on this list, but was surprised to see trastuzumab still on there, etc. @OncoAlert #bcsm #gyncsm https://t.co/TwxxdZpWXb | |

Dennis Keim @denniskeim @BZavaletaMD @IBCResearch I'm a blabber mouth when it comes to questions about my diagnosis and treatment. The teacher in me. #bcsm | |
Beverly A. Zavaleta MD @BZavaletaMD @DrAttai Second BEST thing anyone said when encountering my chemo& cancer-ridden self: “Oh Beverly I just don’t know what to say!” (And then she hugged me) I prefer honesty! #bcsm | |

Mighty #HeathenSlut Casey🇺🇦🌟 @MightyCasey T2: I led w/humor in my own story-tell, but that's my natural state. I'm also full-disclosure person since I work freelance/solopreneur, needed to manage expectations. Blessedly, I live alone, so no one in my grill 24/7/365. That was ... good for me. #bcsm | |

Cheryl White @LadyScorcher @BZavaletaMD Oh yeah. This one really sucked. The only person I want to hear this from is my oncologist. #bcsm | |

Stephanie Graff, MD, FACP, FASCO @DrSGraff @stales A few off the top of my head: 1. I am here to listen if you want to talk, sit silently if you don’t, or give you space. 2. Is there any concrete action I can do to help or support you? (Then do it). 3. Check in again—cancer is never just a single moment. #bcsm | |

Double Whammy @double_whammied One of the things that still gets to me is telling somebody you're a #breastcancer survivor & they instantly say 'Congratulations!' cutting you off from whatever you were trying to say. #bcsm | |
Mighty #HeathenSlut Casey🇺🇦🌟 @MightyCasey A2: Think of it as if you're telling a 10yo. - Pick your moment (if at all possible) - quiet time/place, IOW not on a NYC subway platform - If it's a friend-not-fam, say "I trust you, so I'm telling you this." And ask for the level of privacy you expect. 1/2 #bcsm | |
Stephanie Graff, MD, FACP, FASCO @DrSGraff @stales I realized I answered a “how to respond when someone tells you they have been diagnosed with cancer”....which is not what you asked. Oh well. Mondays. 🤷🏼♀️😅 #bcsm | |

Christian Sinclair, MD, FAAHPM @ctsinclair RT @stales: T2: T2: If you had to write guidelines on how to tell someone about a cancer diagnosis, what would you suggest? Tweet your ideas #bcsm | |
Lex @Lex_in_CO T2: balance between pretending cancer is all I am or it’s no big deal - but understand I am still finding that balance myself. DAILY -after 6 years. #bcsm | |
Double Whammy @double_whammied 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇 | |
Beverly A. Zavaleta MD @BZavaletaMD @stales @double_whammied So true. Even if the cancer patient doesn’t actively caretake, we/they might minimize symptoms or fears in order to “protect” loves ones or to avoid dealing with stress of loved ones’ reactions. #bcsm | |
Strong Heart Now @StrongHeartNow1 @stales @double_whammied Wow, yes, great article! #bcsm | |
Alicia C. Staley @stales T2a: What advice would you give to a newly diagnosed person on how to share news of their cancer? #BCSM | |
Sandra Spivey @SpiveySandra @stales T2- Guidelines: -ask me if I want to/am willing to talk about it first -don’t compare your medical experience with mine -ask questions if you want to know more. Stop asking questions if you’ve had enough -remember it can be emotionally painful to relive some experiences #bcsm | |
Double Whammy @double_whammied RT @danielle_dk: What not to say... - free boob job - “good” kind of cancer - you have a good shaped head 🤦♀️#bcsm | |
Mary L Gorden @marylgorden T2 Don't have any advice on this I had the cancer caused blood clot (PE) before the cancer dx so I just added the dx to a status report. Made it easier for me #bcsm | |
Cheryl White @LadyScorcher @itsnot_pink @stales This is the best tip. A friend sent out updates and handled the Qs. It helped so much. #bcsm | |

Marina @4RiseUp RT @DrSGraff: @stales A few off the top of my head: 1. I am here to listen if you want to talk, sit silently if you don’t, or give you space. 2. Is there any concrete action I can do to help or support you? (Then do it). 3. Check in again—cancer is never just a single moment. #bcsm | |
Mighty #HeathenSlut Casey🇺🇦🌟 @MightyCasey A2: - If it's family, you might have to do it at a distance - if at all poss, do w/video (ie Facetime, Zoom, Skype, whatevs) - Know that some peeps will make it all about them ... and don't share much w/'em after initial tell - Manage YOUR feelings, not theirs. 2/2 #bcsm | |
Marina @4RiseUp #bcsm | |
Beverly A. Zavaleta MD @BZavaletaMD @Lex_in_CO Yes! Issues of side effects or ongoing maintenance & work ups are major. #bcsm | |
Cathy Leman, MA, RD | Dietitian & ER/PR+ Survivor @dammadbrstcancr @stales Omg it was excruciatingly difficult for me to tell ANYONE. I was very private about my dx. Ha ha now look at me here on Twitter for the universe to see. Seriously sometimes still hard. Still don’t like being the #breastcancer person. #bcsm | |
Double Whammy @double_whammied @danielle_dk The free boob job line is so offensive. Actually wrote about that too. Reconstruction is so grueling. Sometimes harder than early stg Tx. #bcsm https://t.co/pzoZHejXXP | |

Mighty #HeathenSlut Casey🇺🇦🌟 @MightyCasey @ErikaHamilton9 @jamienholloway It happens waaaay more than anyone thinks. Some of it due to humans being feelings beings. Some of it's not knowing how to deal w/those feelings. And a small slice of it is just straight up narcissists. #bcsm | |
