How to deal with a friends illness
A friend from work had this sinus/ cough throat problem going on for about 2-3 months. She went to the doctor several times and kept getting antibiotics for sinus infection. Finally the doctor sent her to a specialist and got more testing done.
She has throat cancer and had a large tumor and other growths in her throat and I guess her lungs. She was put in the hospital that day, had surgery, started chemotherapy. Now she is home but has a feeding tube. She had to get 8 teeth pulled and they may have to pull ALL of them.
So she went from working full-time, to a doctor appointment and straight to all this!!
I sent a card, but I am not sure what else to do. I don't think she would want any company and I don't know her husband. We weren't friends that hung out together away from work but I feel like one card isn't enough. Maybe I should just send her a card or note once a week just to let her know she is being thought of.
I feel so bad for her - she is only 45 and to go from her regular life to this in a few short days is terrifying.
