[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh and 7:01 those feelings of guilt are exactly why this is a really bad way for people to think about this. I hate the idea that you think you somehow failed and thats why you have breast cancer. That is absolutely 100% not true.[/quote] +1000. I think we live in a culture very inclined to blame victims, even cancer patients. Healthy women look for ways to reassure themselves that it can't happen to them, and don't mind, in the process, suggesting that breast cancer patients must somehow have been responsible for their own misfortunes. I waded through a lot of smugness when I was diagnosed recently, even though my mother and grandmother also had premenopausal breast cancer and my situation wasn't really such a surprise.
