cancer sucks, your daughter is beautiful, but a grown woman is allowed to joke about it if it makes her feel good. if its how she copes, then you should just deal with it or ignore it. i dont think this woman goes out and actively JOKES about cancer and cancer patients, she posted something because its who she is. if you dont like it, stop reading. this is just ridiculous high school drama crap
Its like one day when some twitter person said along the lines “when my kids dont make their quota of 50 wallets, I tell them I can get new ones.”
I dont find that amusing, since children all over the world are forced into labor, poverty, sex trade, etc. As a parent, I dont find things that can involve children in pain, funny.
When I was younger, lived in a 3rd world country and things where bad, worse than most people will ever see in their lives. If you are interested, look up the city and country (state – for more knowledgeable people in the bunch) Lagos, Nigeria during 1995.
So much poverty & crime. Even then it brought emotion to my forefront. I used to give out 50 cents which was equal 50 Naira, and make little homeless kids days. They had nothing, and what I gave was so little. I know this has nothing to do with cancer, but my compassion for humankind is strong, especially children.
I dont find serious issues funny. I understand looking at things in a positive light, but dont use dumb remarks to get attention, white-trasha.
I read the blog post earlier today (made my blood boil all day) and I think it’s just wrong she would compare losing 5lbs to cancer…my 4yr old cousin died of cancer back when I was younger…its NOT funny!
Your daughter is beautiful! She seems like such a little trooper! Tell her she’s awesome!
Hey Molli, in case you were not aware (we both know that you are) this is a cancer blog. So…um….I’m gonna take any jokes about cancer seriously. As you can see it affects every aspect of my life.
As far as you saying that this is high school crap….it’s not. THIS IS LIFE! You may be causing drama because you are bored and have no life but I strongly believe in what I say. And if you dont like what I have to say you can go kick rocks.
So here is the thing that I think or I hope everyone can agree on here now that I took a breather to digest all of this.
Sandra has every given right to be pissed that someone (Trisha the Punt) is making a joke about cancer when Trisha herself does indeed NOT HAVE CANCER.
Trisha, does have every right to make jokes on her blog….HOWEVER, being a low down dirty human being by deleting comments that do not feed your pathetic excuse for a life is NOT right. Make jokes all you want, but if you had showed an OUNCE of compassion which is clearly beyond a woman who CLEARLY displays mental illnesses beyond certifiable standards and is also in part because you didn’t have a mommy growing up (boo hoo), then maybe this whole conversation would not be an issue.
This is not an issue of “it’s my blog (I’m going to act like a 5 yr old princess and stomp my feet) and I can do what I want” and “My daughter has cancer you oxygen thief” the issue is the lack of human compassion and the fact someone like Trisha is incapable on ALL levels of human compassion.
Seriously, she (#shewhoshallnotbenamed…Muwahahaha) has major issues, clearly! Which is why she has to flash her pathetic excuse for titties all over the net, why she has a blog that ONLY allows “Trisha, EWE rock” all over it, and everything is about her. To get it where it hurts her (if anyone can her…it…that)….ignore the waste of space, don’t give her nasty comments because that is what she wants. Even shitty attention is great attention to her.
She is a pathetic excuse for an adult, who is incapable of TRUE adult interaction and healthy relationships. Which is why all her “friends” are online , if they dealt with her on a daily basis they would probably pity her about as much as other high functioning individuals do. So I personally wouldn’t give her anymore of your precious time that should be spent with your beautiful girl. Okay…that’s all. AMEN.
Sandra, I know that we haven’t been in contact in a while now but I continue to think about and pray for you guys. I am so sorry that you had to witness her garbage. Definitely consider the source. ; ) I think Karie summed it up pretty accurately so I’ll leave it at that.
Cancer is NOT funny,those who have experienced or know those who have,have compassion towards it[unless you're the b*tch named above].The aforementioned b*tch should probably get off the computer & work on those five pounds…Keep on truckin Fat ass.
Cancer is not funny.
Cancer sucks.
Your response is classy, and unfortunately needed.
I am mortified that someone would compare cancer to losing weight.
Thank you for standing up for your daughter and all the other cancer warriors out there.
Tiffany
Please know that the majority of us boycott that site, DON’T think cancer is funny in ANY way shape or form, will do EVERYTHING in their power to make SURE no one I know patronizes that site. Your daughter is beautiful and going through immense struggle. Obviously, the other site owner has some serious issues which might need professional attention IMO. Well wishes to your and your daughter Tiffany.
BRAVO!!!! The world needs more people like you. There is a trend in *someone’s* blog postings and her inability to handle any response(s) that she doesn’t like. For someone who claims their blog is controversial needs to look at what that word actually means: a discussion marked especially by the expression of opposing views. She’s confused with the other C word …. nah not that one …. I’m thinking of CENSORSHIP because that’s precisely what she’s doing – deleting/suppressing views contrary to her own under the guise of it’s my blog I can do what I want to. Sure – if you’re not being SPONSORED and dub yourself some controversy queen. Anyway, enough about it – I’ll turn my thoughts to pleasant ones and send some your way. And kudos for handling this so tactfully and maturely.
I’m sitting here crying as I watched this. My heart goes out to you both. I just lost my mom to bone cancer after a looooooong 3 year battle and when I read that comment on her blog about hearing she had to lose 5 pounds was worse then cancer I wanted to scream.
Your little gal is so brave and an absolute doll!! I pray Gods peace in your life and we have to try not to let evil people and their comments add anymore junk in our lives.
~HUGS~
One of my son’s best friends is battling brain cancer. He lived in our local children’s hospital for a year. His mother gave birth to his baby brother in the hospital next door while he was undergoing treatment.
Cancer is NOT funny.
Half his face is paralyzed and the tumor severed the auditory nerve in one of his ears, rendering him hearing impaired. His chemotherapy destroyed about half the hearing in his other ear. His ability to swallow was gone for months and he had to be fed by tube. Even now, he still throws up sometimes after he eats. They don’t know if that will ever go away.
Cancer is NOT funny.
He has to leave school halfway through most days because he’s just too tired. His little body has had so many operations and treatments that he’s still very weak.
Cancer is NOT funny.
Even though the last MRI three months ago showed no more live cancer cells, nobody knows how long our little hero will live. He is the sunniest, happiest, sweetest kid, but his parents don’t know how long they have with him. His journey has drastically altered their family in ways that can’t be undone.
Can I say this again? Cancer is NOT funny. And anyone who claims losing five pounds is worse than cancer, no matter what experience they claim to have with it, is beyond insensitive. I know funny, and that wasn’t it. Get a life.
speaking of cancer not being funny….right after I wrote the last message I went to bed. Just got a call from my Mom…my uncle who has been battling melanoma, just passed away….yea, really funny stuff there.
Oh my gosh, this post hit me hard with tears. Your daughter is beautiful and your family is so strong for going through what you’re going through.
You’re right. Cancer is NOT a joke. I’ve subscribed to your feed so I can check up on your beautiful, strong, daughter and continue to send her some good thoughts on the road to recovery!

I’m sorry Sandra cancer is nothing compared to having to lose 5 lbs.
ps. I love you my friend. You are stronger than anyone else I know.

molli,
You know who we are talking about I am taking it. Since this is an anonymous comment, is this #momdotsucks at work?
Seriously, if someone doesnt think cancer is funny, let them speak…now begone.

@delthedad (read my tweets to catch up on the cancer sucks issue, going on)
Hey Admin, pull the comment and like white-trasha @ #momdotsucks would.

Sandra you almost made del cry. its serious….

Hey Nicole, funny thing is Karie doesn’t know anything about the past. But she does. Anyway hope everything is good with you!

Beg your pardon…Sandra. Was looking at the above post.

My heart goes out to both you and your daughter. I hope you both stay strong and beat this. She is beautiful!
Cancer is not funny i lost my Mom to Cancer and now my Aunt is battling it at 79 i am sure both would rather lose 5lbs than fight Cancer
I’m sitting here crying as I watched this. My heart goes out to you both. I just lost my mom to bone cancer after a looooooong 3 year battle and when I read that comment on her blog about hearing she had to lose 5 pounds was worse then cancer I wanted to scream.

aww Taylor is beautiful and I totally understand your outrage. What a piece of work she is!
My best friend is dealing with cancer and I agree. It’s NOT funny.
Loved your video-what a classy way to respond. (and your little girl is the cutest!)
You and your daughter are so strong! Way to tell it babe. My mom died of lung cancer and no, its not funy!
speaking of cancer not being funny….right after I wrote the last message I went to bed. Just got a call from my Mom…my uncle who has been battling melanoma, just passed away….yea, really funny stuff there.
I almost cried. Your little girl is adorable. I can only imagine the journey your family is taking.
So at first I had no clue what was going on and then decided to click the links and saw the disgusting post from trisha.
I am signed up at mom dot forums but have been clueless to alot.
Then I saw the screen shot of the post and saw the comments and I wanted to puke.
I cannot believe a mother would think it’s ok to take photos of a child and post it over the internet criticizing them in such a terribly way.
I cannot imagine the pain I’d feel seeing my child’s photo on the internet in such a manner.
I’m glad you ladies are standing up and speaking out.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your daughter! Cancer, just like any other disease, is not funny!
Oh my gosh, this post hit me hard with tears. Your daughter is beautiful and your family is so strong for going through what you’re going through.
You’re right. Cancer is NOT a joke. I’ve subscribed to your feed so I can check up on your beautiful, strong, daughter and continue to send her some good thoughts on the road to recovery!
