A friend of my family called me this morning upset because her son who has been fighting cancer for about a year now has found that there are tumors on his liver. He has a wife and a 2 year old daughter.
He is refusing treatments and told everyone he wants to be left alone with what time he has left.
It seems incredibly selfish when you take into account the wife and daughter, but at the same time I hate to say he's selfish because we don't know what we'd do until in his shoes.
I feel bad for his mom, but I have no idea what to say to her.
I know this isn't my usual silliness, but I was just wondering if anyone else has ever been in a situation like this. I want to console his mother, but I have no idea what to say to her.
Suggestions?
