I can't stand it when people talk about 'beating' cancer, and kicking its arse. Does that make everyone who's died of cancer a loser? Were they not as strong, perhaps?

It's time people stopped thinking about how surviving cancer is somehow down to willpower and strength, and realise it's largely down to luck and access to good medical treatment.
