    I’m sorry for your father’s passing. With that, I’m surprised that you chose to step into a conversation about cancer if the topic is still so sensitive to you.

        you keep attributing to me things that i never said and aren’t true.

        I’m looking through our past posts to one another. I’m not seeing any place where I attributed something to you you didn’t say. I’m happy to be corrected if you want to point a place out.

        Lol idk what point you’re trying to make anymore,

        You and I have been having a conversation about a single point. You don’t like the word “fight” when referring to cancer, which is fine. You’re not required to use it. I disagree with you, but thats it. There’s no force occurring here. I have no power over you (or desire to make you do something you don’t want to do). I’m defending my use of the word for this context.

        It looks like you’re in a downvoting mood now, so we can just stop the conversation with one another. I’m fine with that too. If you want the same, I hope you have a great day. Also, I am truly sorry about your father.

            Where’s the mis-attribution you’re seeing?

            You said : “Yes i watched my father die from cancer over two years thanks for reminding me”.

            Did you or did you not start conversing in an existing convesation about cancer? Are you or are you not upset about being reminded about cancer because of the passing of your father as you said? How else could I interpret your statement about being reminded about your father passing?

                  Again I never wrote painful or sensitive, you keep adding your own words in your head to my comments you read. If your use of words is always this carelesss, it would explain why you don’t understand my point about the word fight.

                    Can I ask if English is a second language to you? The words you chose have meanings that indicate pain or sensitivity.

                    If you don’t mean pain or sensitivity, what are you trying to communicate with your "thanks for reminding me” retort? You’re saying right now you don’t mean it is a painful or sensitive subject, which is how most of the English speaking world uses the phrase you used. What do you mean instead?
