I havent seen them for a few months and found out from a mutual friend. Do I email, phone or go to their home?

I would call the person and say its been awhile since we've seen each other, and I was wondering if you would like to go out to lunch or dinner sometime. I would not let them that you know. Let them be the one to say something. Some people want to deal with it themselves. But if the person brings it up, listen and let them know that you'll be with them and you'll always be there. Educate yourself on what they have so that you have a better understanding and spend more time with them. If there is a support group go with them. Pray for them.

Why are you asking? Any way possible is the best. Ask if there is anything you can do, then DO IT. Offer to help with or to do the things he/she hasn't got the strength or time to do. Look up a support group for the terminally ill to see if they can tell you what your friend may really need, experience being the best teacher. Spend time with the person, make recordings, if not pictures, then just their voice. Especially if he/she has children. Help him/her make separate recordings for each.

I would call them and ask if you can come over! Emailing is so impersonal!!! Just be a good friend and ask them how their doing and if you can do anything for them! Plus, try to visit a few times because time is so precious! I'm sorry for your friend...I wish you and your friend the best of luck!!!

In October 2005 my best friend called me and said he had been having severe headaches. I knew him for 35 years and we would go to bars together etc. and he would always ask me why I would get a headache and said he had never had one. Anyway, I told him to go to the doc because it was very unusual for him to get headaches. Turned out he had 20 inoperable cancerous brain tumors. I drove 170 miles every weekend to see him and take care of him. I quit my job to stay with him until the end. He died in May 2006 and I was with him. So don't wait to try to figure out what to do. Just go see your friend and do what you can. God Bless you and your friend.

the same way you always contacted them they arnt contagous they are going to die be a support to them im sure they dont want your sympathy your friend would want to be treated normally if the friend hasnt told you make them aware that you know so there is no uneasy feeling when you see them its a hard time but if you are a good friend be there...
