How Do You Support A Friend With Cancer?

My Post Copy 11 (16)

I’m looking for your tips and suggestions on how best to help a friend with cancer, for an article I’m writing on this topic.  As individuals with our own experience of cancer are we in a better position to know the “right” thing to say or do when a friend is diagnosed with cancer?   Or does a friend’s diagnosis of cancer trigger our own fears and sadness?

From your own experience, what gifts or practical support did you find most memorable or helpful? What were some things that friends said to you that helped you face diagnosis and treatment?

I’m looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this topic and sharing them in my forthcoming article.
