How do you feel about being called a “warrior” or a “hero” for living with CF?
People love to use the words “hero” and “warrior” when complimenting those with CF on their triumphs and hardships. However, sometimes the “hero-ification” or applying a superhuman quality to a human can be upsetting.
I personally don’t have a problem with someone complimenting me with those words. But I do get annoyed because I would trade being a hero to be disease-free in a second. I do not feel like a hero for simply living my life.
Do you mind when someone calls you a “warrior” or “hero”? Share your thoughts below!
