- swyx 4y agohey, please have some tact. sid is a very active part of our community and almost certainly reading this post. dont say anything here you wouldnt say to a friend's face especially in his time of vulnerability.
- Aeolun 4y agoIt may just be me, but that sounds like something a friend would say? It’s not exactly a secret that you’ve made it, nor is it controversial that cancer sucks.
- DoesntMatter22 4y agoI didn't mean that in any sort of bad way. I'm sorry it was taken that way. It's just that it seems like incredibly bad luck to have "made it" on a level that most people can't imagine, and then you are struck with a serious illness like this.
- megous 4y agoHaving cancer while poor sucks even more.
- Aeolun 4y agoTo some extend, but you’d probably be more or less ok from a financial perspective in the Netherlands.

- metadat 4y agoFor some people, keeping things as normal as possible in challenging circumstances helps them get through it.
- devwastaken 4y agoWhat are you expecting someone with cancer to do? Sit in a room and do nothing forever? How do you think that's going to go for the business? You should be asking yourself these kinds of questions well before you think about speaking. You're commenting on a situation you're not involved in, and speaking out of ignorance.
