I'm so sorry,. for your friend
I've had friends that had cancer, too.. and I've lost some really good friends by it. and its really hard letting them go. because they were friends that can nvr ever be replaced. and if she asked you,. and if your a true friend. you would be there for her even though if its painful for you.. to see her go through that.
but a friend is a friend.
think of it reverse. if is was you, and you asked her that question., i bet she would be there for you too

I am sorry to hear that about your friend. First of all, in case she'd double checked and looked for a second opinion to confirm the cancer is terminal, you both have to stay strong. I'm not going to convince you I know how you feel because I don't. But I really think that if she needs your help this is the best you can do - help her and take care of her. People with terminal illnesses NEED to feel that they will not leave this world alone, that somebody will be there with them even only to hold their hand... When there's no hope there shouldn't be loneliness. I wouldn't give up on her if I were you. Good luck, greenies!

So sorry for her. As a friend, this is the best time for you to be one to her. If you can, offer her your help. If she wishes to be with you, for you to be her caregiver, if you can do it, why not? But if you have to attend to your own personal life, getting in touch with her as often as you can will make her happy. Give her the encouragement and will to survive her ordeals, cancer victim can easily cope up with all the support they can get from their family and loved ones. Don't hesitate to do this for a FRIEND IN NEED!

hi greenies,
it is really a noble cause to help someone who needs your help.and your friend needs your help so you must go to her.and cancer is really a big thing but you dont have to worry about it.you just need to be with her and take care of her.just make sure that she takes her medicine regulary.and ask her to have as much milk as she can coz milk is good for cancer patient.that is what i heard.
i pray to god that your friend get well very soon.

Tell her to be strong and she can pull through this and live the life she wants. Get her some flowers and a get well card to first make her feel loved and that she can do this. Be by her side and do what she would like. She is going through a rough time in life and would like im sure anything she can right now. Its something you both will have to deal with in life.

cancer is a horrible thing. i lost my grandad to it last year. i think the most important thing is as the others have said, make her feel like she can pull through. dwelling on such a horrible thing only makes it worse. i think you would regret not spending as much time with her as possible, should the worst eventually happen. i visited my grandad as often as i could around work, and the last thing i said to him was "ill see you soon". he passed away before i got another chance to go to the hospital.
i think being her carer may be too painful on you both, should her conndition deteriorate. cancer is not the end, and in some cases it can take years to take over. For you to spend all the time doing "carer" activities, will leave very little time for friendship. I would advise getting her in touch with cancer foundations etc asap. and let them assess the situation. it would take the strain off your friendship, and leave the time you spend together as proper quality time
