My uncle, who died from cancer a few months ago, was a very funny and upbeat person. He joked about it all the time, except maybe for the last two weeks at the hospital where he got a little depressed. When he was going for his chemotherapy, he used to park his car anywhere he wanted, and said: I don`t care, I have cancer...For Christmas, he took his familly to the Carribean. He died in March. He went to work everytime he could. He left us an exmplary image of strength and courage. He basically lived life to the very end without slowing down. Remember also that miracles do happen. I know someone who was diagnosed with lung and brain cancer, and is now doing just fine, all cleared up. My thoughts are with your friend, and whatever happens is what was meant to happen.
