The one that drives me nuts is No.3 ‘I’m too busy to get ill’ or ‘You need to keep busy and just get on with it!’

Quite a few Sweeties have also been on the receiving end of No.4 'I wish I had the luxury of being sick so that I could stay at home all day’.

Have any members of this forum been on the receiving end of these sorts of comments?
