Unfortunately over the past few years I have known friends who have faced and a cancer diagnosis.
As a friend of someone going through cancer, it’s hard to know what to do and how to help. I didn’t know the “right” thing to do, or what would be most helpful or thoughtful. I feared doing or saying the wrong thing. I felt helpless. This post is to help empower anyone looking for ideas on how to help a friend with cancer.
If you have any tips or ideas to add to this post, PLEASE comment below. The beauty in a post like this is the invaluable resources and ideas that other people also contribute.
When I got the idea to write this post, I wanted the information to come firsthand from someone who fought cancer and the ways they were helped, supported and loved during their diagnosis, treatment and beyond.
I have two inspirational, kick cancer’s ass friends who were kind enough to offer their insight and ideas….
