This is not the first time... or will be the last time... that someone pulls such a 'stupid, pathetic... stunt"... and apparently gets way with it for a while (2 years in this case).

What drives people to do this when for us cancer is/was/will be VERY REAL?  How unhuman do you have to be to step so low?

These "stories" really make me very mad.

Of course it makes us angry.  As it should.  I think she'll get off on the personality disorder thing, so sad.

Scams are pulled all the time on people--I especially despise the ones used on patients with Real cancer who are misled to thinking that some apricot pits or an electrical device will cure them. Just send money.  Now, that's really a source of anger for me.
