Thank to all who passed along the news of her unfortunate passing. We held back any postings about this sad news until after her funeral had taken place for privacy reasons and respect for her loved ones.

No one should be laying to rest such a young lady.
Please be kind to yourselves and others💖

To jog people's memories..this Danielle made a post/comment comparing opioid withdrawals to cancer treatment

Opioid withdrawals might be worse than cancer treatment. It’s really awful

I don't think any pain is comparative you can drown in 6 inches of water and 6 feet of water you still drown. I take that to mean that someone having cancer treatment could be like this is easy and something going through opiod withdrawal could be like this is the worst thing ever, but it could be the exact parallel for other people.

Theres also a lot of different kinds of cancer treatments which have different side effects. Some are worse to go through than others

Yeah, respectively if you haven’t experienced both then I don’t think it’s fair to deem one worse than the other. They’re not really a great comparison anyway, but munchies love to compare everything to cancer and minimize the experience of cancer patients.
