The Weird Things Folks Say When You're Sick

from More Than A Diagnosis · host Den and Jes

You know the comments — the "but you don't look sick" or "everything happens for a reason" type of stuff. 😬 In this episode, Jes and Den share the most unhinged, awkward, and straight-up bizarre things people say after you've been diagnosed with cancer or chronic illness. Spoiler: we've heard it all — and so have you. We're reading comments from Jes's TikTok, swapping stories, and laughing through the discomfort… because sometimes the only way to deal with the weirdness is to talk about it out loud.  TW: Language about illness and death.Light-hearted, real talk — just how we like it.
