Chronic uncurable conditions can be far more painful and debilitating. I know from experience. The charities that help the stoic sufferers of these conditions are crying out for more funding, but cancer charities attract more attention. They can afford to advertise!
I get where Countrylover is coming from.
In the 80s my grandmother suffered from debilitating arthritis, but, as far as I am aware, arthritis doesn't kill.
She became a husk of a woman, her joints twisted beyond recognition, and was in permanent agonising pain - and often said she'd simply rather die.
She seemed ancient to me at the time, but was only in her early 70s.
I tend to think that many suffers are told this, in the hope it may give them a boost when they are feeling really low, does it give them a boost? no idea. I don't believe that a fat lot of people do consider them to be brave, or braver than having any other illness, but say because they think its whats expected off them in certain situations.
