My friends mum has cancer!:(?

I'm 15 too, and I understand how it feels to go through hard times. When a loved one is dying, it's actually REALLY hard to like, get it in your head. Like, you sort of feel like "no this can't be real, it's a dream, i have to ******* wake up!"

If you're not grounded in reality, then you won't be useful at all in this sort of situation. Lamely blabbing "it'll be okay" or "she had a good life" is only going to make it worse, really. What your friend needs is not people telling her that her mom willl be alright--at this point, I think she wants someone to tell her SHE will be okay.

I know how it feels to lose people you love or are extremely cose to (friends, family), wether it's to death, neglect, or just a fight you messed up; In all honesty, I don't think it matters how a person leaves--if they're going, they're going.

Your friend can't really "replace" her mom with anybody. Like, no chance. Nothing can replace a mom. So don't try--that's a mistake people make too often. As long as you remember that your job is to be her friend, and not a therapist or a sibling or a mom, you'll be okay.

You're there to cheer her up, maybe give her a hug if she needs it. Don't be all sappy and melodramatic, but don't try to belittle what she's going through, either. If she wants to talk, do it. If she just wants to hang out, don't pressure her into talking. Basically, see what your friend needs, and do that. AS a friend, you can tell what she needs, I think--follow your gut, and do what you think is best.

Sorry if this didn't help...

Four hours after posting this you claimed your friend's boyfriend was dying (slowly) of lung cancer - a disease that, at 15, he is decades too young to have.

So one of you - your friend or you - is lying.

The best way to support her is to learn as much as you can about breast cancer and to listen to her when she wants to talk about. Provide encouragement when she is in a down mood.
