Indeed, one of the best remedies to help your friend is first to listen to them. Listening to a cancer patients helps them open up their fears, worries, concerns, and even secret hopes. Cancer patients can find it hard to open up about their feelings thinking it would scare people away.

2. Don't Judge

Another negative result of a person sharing her thoughts with her friend is judgment. Some cancer patients feel they will be judged by those who know them when they share their utmost feelings. This action is one of their subconscious fears. Make sure to avoid this pitfall by genuinely listening to this person. Don't even try to sugarcoat her illness; truly listen and speak when your opinion is asked. Make her feel that what she is feeling is something you respect. Take time to earn her trust. Be careful with your words. Put yourself in her shoes. Don't make assumptions. Let your intention be pure. Surprising her with something she mentioned in your conversations makes her feel extra loved. In that way, you help her know that you take her words by heart.

When someone is diagnosed with cancer, her world is turned upside down. The typical activities she usually does seem to be hard to do now. Sometimes, friends have an assumption that because one has cancer, she should not be brought to the usual activities she enjoys because it may take a toll on her. Unfortunately, this mindset brings more harm than good. Your cancer-stricken friend already feels awful for not being able to do the everyday things she enjoys. Make her feel normal by getting her to places or doing activities with her that she usually loves to visit and do when she is not yet subject to chemotherapy. You can go shopping for clothes and jewelry, ice skating, and other fun stuff. Of course, there are some limitations to consider, but don't let her sickness make her feel that she will miss the fun in the world.
