My face is altered, one eye one side of nose ,loss of half an eyebrow and some eyelashes and bruises and redness to parts of face. All this is permanent. Sometimes people ask about my eye as it's so obviously not right.Many just wonder, as you found and they do not say anything.I'm talking about people I've just met.I tell them a short,longer or very short version depending on the situation. I know I don't have to tell anything.They usually expect me to tell about my sore eye ,not expecting a cancer story.
I wish I didn't have a cancer to tell.
I don't think I appreciated what I had till it was gone.
I suppose that is true or most people who get a life- changing condition.
