I usually love even really dark jokes… but I can assure you, when I was in the hospital for cancer and currently bleeding out of all holes the body has (during the nadir, my thrombocytes were simply gone - and me too without receiving multiple blood donations) I would’ve not appreciated this in the slightest. Not like I would’ve had enough strength to complain, but I can see my family throwing fists in this special case. And helping me file a lawsuit.

People in such situations all eventually have a suicidal thought (incl. just rejecting any further treatment, which can be absolute horror). Hope can make the difference between you and your body pushing through or giving up. That asshole isn’t helping.
