Amusing. Yet I don't recall any of those comments to be bothersome for me. Many people just feel compelled to comment in these odd ways, rather than just ask you how you are doing. I had quite a few folks act all alarmed that I did something so "drastic" as having a colectomy, as if it was not a well thought out choice. I imagine women who have mastectomies get plenty of "advice" from well meaning people.
