Oh, allow me to clarify: it was my request not to schedule the surgery until October. The surgeon could have scheduled it sooner than that. But on the whole, yes, I agree there is way too long of a wait to access healthcare in America.

I am telling MY friends about my family member’s impending death. I get to choose what words I want to use to communicate this news. My friends do not need this news softened for them. Next time, try choosing compassion and don’t name call someone facing a family member’s death.

If I were telling *her* close friends, yes, I would likely bow to social norms and use euphemisms. But as I process this for myself and tell the news to my friends, who do not need language softened for them because they do not know her, it’s best for me to use clear and direct language.

UPDATE: I’ve realized that the wording of my post is ambiguous, so let me clearly state: I am telling *my* close friends about the impending death of my family member. I am not telling my family member’s close friends about her impending death.
