    Thanks guys. :)

    He's doing well. He's going to have 14 sessions of chemo, 18 days apart, and has to stay in the hospital for three days after each session. I think I'm gonna go hang out with him tomorrow night, so that should be good.

    I have a friend with cancer. Basically, they've told him he will die in the next month. Kinda sucks for him, his family, and all of us, his friends. We talk to him a lot, but he moved to a city with better healthcare, so we never really see him anymore. If he stays where you are, I would advise talking to him as much as possible, cause I'm wishing I had talked to my friend more before he left, considering I'll never see him again.

    Cancer is a hell of a thing to deal with. My grandmother died from it which was terrible. I had a hard time dealing with seeing her in such a poor condition that I could not bear to visit her (I was younger then). Now I completely regret not visiting her, and telling her how much I loved here.

    Also, my friend's sister died about a month back from cancer, she was 19. It's terrible.

    Wow, sorry for your friend, but to honestly buy him a 360? Don't drown the kid with sympathy, sure he has a problem, but treat him as if he never had cancer and do all the things you always did. Don't sit there and give him special treatment.

    You sound like a great friend. Besides the things that you have mentioned there, I feel it might also be helpful to get involved in things like walks for the cure. I know someone who has cancer and she rallied up a group of 20 or so kids to walk at this "Light the Night" for people suffering from either leukemia or lymphoma. It was a great experience and fun as well. Plus it is extremely easy to collect money for, because some people would feel guilty if they had not given any money.
