    Mom died of breast cancer. On my bd last month.

    She felt a lump, didn’t get it checked, figured it was a bit of fake titty that broke loose. Would have cost too much to get looked at.

    Found she had breast cancer. Her chemo stent got infected, wanted to wait until Monday to have it seen. Would have cost too much.

    Husband drove her 2-hours through 14° weather, snow and mountains and all, to the ER. Dead within 24 hours.

    But hey! Another dead conservative Boomer! Win?

      Human to human: I am so, so sorry for your loss and hope you are able to accept it and eventually still live your life to its fullest. I imagine that’s what she would have wanted. Nothing else I say should diminish that.

      [She] didn’t get it checked, figured it was a bit of fake titty that broke loose.

      What does this mean!? I don’t have breasts, so I have no personal experience but is it common for parts of them to break loose??

      I’m sure you’re hurting, but this is a lot of projection. Did anyone actually say this (either online or in-person)!? If so, they are a bad person, no matter their political affiliation or beliefs and you should stay away from them…

        I’m assuming she had breast implants and she thought one of them ruptured. It happens and isn’t life threatening.

        I’m sorry that it wasn’t the case though.
