Just tell him that you will be there for him for whatever he needs. Tell him that you love him and will support him and then carry on doing what you do. He will appreciate you being there without you having to do anything special. Then he can tell you what he needs and when he needs it.

The best thing you can do is continue to be his best friend. A person he can count on to talk to, to vent his feelings. I had cancer and some of my best friends left me, just be his best friend. Be with him when he needs you, be his shoulder to cry on, his rock that hold him up.

Just tell him that you’ll be there for him all the way. Even if everything doesn’t turn out ok then atleast let him know that you’ll always be there for him. I know it’s going to be hard for both of you, since he is your best friend and all. But I wish him luck and just suport him and let him know you care.

Leukemia is a very treatable cancer & and can be treated successfully. Please make sure to be there for your friend & let him talk, whether it’s about his illness or the latest movies. Just be there – he will talk if he needs to; sometimes quiet companionship is all that’s necessary.

first, please accept my sympathy. My son and i had a recent cancer scare and spent 3 months at st. jude’s in memphis. I can tell you the best thing is to be there for him. Treat him like the great friend he is. No, you can’t say that you know he’ll get better. But you can say, “No matter what, i’m here for you. I love you and you can always count on me.” Bless your heart for being a good friend.

My sons girlfriend died from leukemia,but I’ve heard of people being cured too.The thing that my son regrets the most is that he was wrapped up in his own problems,thinking she would be alright,and wasn’t there for her the way he should have been.So I would say you’re there for him whenever he needs you and that you’ll pray for him and ask others to pray for him.

Don’t trivialize his condition by telling him it will be okay. Tell him that you’ll be there for him, to support him in through the good and bad, easy and hard times. Then follow through with what you say.
That will mean more to him than anything else. In times like this he needs friends that can be relied on more than people feeding him trite nonsense.
Good Luck!

Just be supportive and let him know that you are gonna be there to support him though the good and the bad. I am sure he’s scared to death right now and may not be acting like you are used to, may even be alittle bit angry, just hang in there with him, don’t you take anything personally while he is adjusting to this battle that he is facing. Be there for him, love him he really needs you right now.
These issues are always very uncomfortable to discuss at first, it’s normal. Just follow your heart and help your friend and you will both be better for it.
Good Luck and God Bless you and your friend.

You need to find out what type leukemia your friend has. This makes a big difference in treatments and prognosis.

I’m really sorry to hear that your friend is ill. Just try to tell him to keep living, and to laugh. I really hope he gets better. You’re in my prayers.

Just ask him if there is anything you can do for him and let him know you are there for him, send him funny cartoons and bible scriptures to read. I just lost a friend to melanoma cancer and I was like you, not quite sure what to do, if you ask them they will tell you though. Best Wishes at this hard time!

Just be supportive. Try to be there for him at all times. Emotional support is what he needs most. But telling him that he is going to be OK would be bordering on a medical opinion. I am guessing that you are not qualified to give that opinion. Unless you practice medicine in some form. I would avoid the whole “you’re going to be OK” thing.

just be there for him, thats the main thing. He’ll probably want to talk a lot, so just listen well.

My husband has CML a type of Luekemia. I still don’t know what to tell him because it will never be “okay”. It is apart of us now. And he has had it for alittle over two years. He has to go back into the hospital next week ( in a few days) and it’s like when he first got sick all over again but now we have to tell our childern about it. All I could tell him was that I love him and will always be here for him, he was actually stronger than I was and still is. It maybe that he is indenial but he is still strong enough to fight. Just be there that is all you can do, try to go to the doctor with him and be supportive do research about it to help him understand but don’t act like you know everything. Try to understand and don’t ever tell him that you know what he is going through because you never will. Just love him and be there that’s all you can do.

Tell him it is going to be OK anyway. You are not the doctor involved, you do not know. You do your best to support his spirit, his will to recover. He might, he might not.
Be a source of strength. If he wants the truth, he will get it from his doctors. Don’t lie to him, you don’t know the outcome. But be positive, because it is really the only thing that can help.
Best luck to both of you.
