[quote=Anonymous]I would follow her lead a bit. My last friend to die young (there have been a few) just didn't want to talk about the fact he was dying for a long, long time. I don't think he was in denial -- I think he was trying to be strong for his mother, who was a mess. Then one afternoon, right after a big procedure (which meant he had narrowly avoided imminent death, but not death a couple of months later) I was visiting him in the hospital and he said "My mother thinks I'm cured. And I'm not." And we finally talked about it -- not enough, I think in retrospect, but some, and at a time he was ready to do it. I'm so sorry. It is hard to know if you are saying/doing what they need, particularly since it requires you to face your own fears.[/quote]
