[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just found out a friend’s son has been diagnosed with cancer. We live in the same city (about 30 miles away). What to do? How to help?[/quote] Show up. Don't focus on the child, focus on the friend so she can focus on the child. Be there to listen, find out the needs for the entire family, and then help. I think that most families with someone facing a medical need can use assistance in just keeping the family fed, house clean, and errands run. The medical need just sucks up time and energy. If you can help backfill that, it is one less thing to worry about.[/quote] Good advice, thank you [/quote]
