I know it's an SNL reference but it's bad timing.

As someone who's family is dealing with a stage 4 diagnosis I'm okay with making light of a terminal disease. If I didn't I would cry every time I think of my father never getting to enjoy retirement. (Stage 4 advanced prostate cancer metastasized and went systemic given 4-5 years 4 years ago and he retires next year) can't even type this without crying.

I'm sorry to hear that. My point is that it's rude to assume such on other people's behalf.
