My dearest friend has biliary cancer. It’s come on really fast and she’s suffering her 2nd case of pancreatitis in just about 2 weeks. I’ve never joined an app for anything and I don’t expect much but it would be nice to learn ways to make her feel better. I love her very much. We’ve been friends for over 56 years. I can’t imagine life without her

Being there for a lifelong friend during such a challenging time shows incredible love and loyalty. Simple gestures like bringing comfort foods, helping with daily tasks, or just sitting together can mean the world during cancer treatment. Consider asking specific questions like "Can I pick up groceries for you?" rather than "Let me know if you need anything," and remember that sometimes just being present and listening is the most valuable support you can offer.
