It's somehow inappropriate to carelessly voice out unsolicited advice on how to fight cancer even if you happen to be a survivor. Some people will claim that if you have survived cancer, it only meant it was not cancer in the first place. If any of your relatives have died from it, that does not give you any license to talk about it too. It seems it's an unwanted topic for any conversation and much of the misery that came with it, funny it came from not having anyone to talk to. Yet we really don't know what to say anymore.
