Positive thoughts

[philstar22]

I'd really appreciate you all sending your positive thoughts or prayers or whatever the way of one of my very close friends and her family. I just found out that she's been hiding the fact that she has brain cancer which has metastasized to her lungs. The doctors are still fighting, but right now the prognosis doesn't look good.

I'm still in shock. I had no idea. Not even sure how to react or what to say to her when we talk. She was hiding it from her friends, but her mother called and told us because she thought we should know.

How scary. :( Best wishes to your friend.

I'm so sorry. I'll keep you and her in my thoughts.

That's not good. She's definitely in my thoughts. I hope you're okay too.

As for what to say to her, if she didn't really want everyone to know then she might want to talk about anything that isn't cancer. It's probably all she talks about with anyone at the moment, so maybe just talk about whatever it is you normally talk about?

That's horrible.

Your friend is my thoughts.

That's terrible. :(

I'm so sorry. It can be hard to share stuff like that. I didn't know my grandmother had lung cancer until after she died. She didn't want anyone to know because she wanted to see all her kids and grandkids happy instead of dwelling on the fact that she was going to die. I'm sending good vibes to you and your friend.

Does she know her mom told all of you? because the mom really should tell her you know before one of you acts on it and she's gotta deal with that surprise on top of everything else. If she's going to get mad at someone, it makes sense for it to be the mom since she did it.

Once she knows you know, be supportive. Ask her what she needs. Get it.

I'm very sorry, I wish the best for your friend and for you.

Yikes. How awful. Sending all sorts of good thoughts and vibes to your friend and her family-here's hoping they can do something for her.

Re: Positive thoughts

[tabaqui]

Oh, jeez. I'm so sorry to hear that.
And just...treat like you usually do. Don't break down or act all sad or whatever. Say hi, give her a hug (if that's what you do) and ask if there's anything you can do. I imagine she hid it out of fear, not only of the illness, but of being treated differently and making her family upset. So...just try not to be. Joke around, be normal, bring her cookies, just let her enjoy your visit without feeling guilt or sadness.

*all the best energy, and blessings, to you and yours*

Prayers and good vibes for your friend and her family, philstar.

Re: Positive thoughts

[(Anonymous)]

Oh, man, that sucks. Best of luck to your friend and her family. Seriously, fuck cancer.

Re: Positive thoughts

[(Anonymous)]

All manner of positive vibes will be sent asap. Try and hang in there, your friend obviously needs you and all other possible support.
Good luck with your next conversation, that will probably be the hardest. After that, try to find something pleasant to do together that you both will like.
