My cousin is a nurse. We were discussing my dad's diagnosis of cancer and I said the tumor was at the GE junction. She gave me a patronizing little laugh and said, Well listen to you. And then went on to translate to my DH. Am I overreacting by being irritated, because I'm irritated. Just wondered if anyone else ran into this before.

Happy Monday!
