In recent months I've learned of several friends my age with Cancer (or spouses). While I want to be supportive and helpful....I fear I'm just a reminder of the worst case scenario...that Cancer often kills the people we love.
The best I seem to muster is "I know a bit of what you may be going through" and offer to be there if they want to talk. But I don't think that's much help....or enough.

I dont' know on this one either .... but I think you are offering yoru support the best way you can.
I do believe that words can sometimes be so, so inadequate... but I also believe that talking to someone who has gone through something similar, or who knows what you are going through is definitely SOME help.
Hope you are well.
