my friend of 18 years is dying . In April she had a lump removed from under her left arm , it turned out to be an agessive form of cancer . She had 15 rounds of radiation  to see if it would kill the cancer , instead the lump grew back 3 times the original size .My friend is 86 years old , her name is Fredia , she went to see her doctor on Friday & he told her she had less than 6 months to live. Fredia did not believe him so she took her medial report & went for a 2nd opinion . This 2nd doctor told her to go home & "tie up any loose ends " .Fredia went to bed this past Monday & she has not left the bed , she sleeps most of the time , I call her every other day  just to say "hello & to tell her I love her". I will miss her when she leaves on this final journey in her life. The world has been a much better place because Fredia was here .I wish everyone could have a friend like Fredia , she is kind & loving & always has something good or nice to say about everyone & everything.  Fredia told me not to cry , that dying is just the next stage in life, I know this & I understand this. However , how do you tell your heart to stop loving a friend because that friend  will no longer be here? My heart is breaking  but I wish her a peaceful journey into her next stage, God speed Fredia & you take a piece of my heart with you on your journey ...you will be remembered always in my heart. 4951

Our friend died yesterday from cancer.  I went to see her on Sunday and she was sitting up & talking but by Tuesday she started declining rapidly & hospice was sent in & they said it was just a matter of hours but she lasted two days. 4951

My heart is breaking for you and your friend.. I agree - spend every minute you can with her.  You won't regret a second of listening to her talking about her life. 4951

@WJo - I'm so sorry.  Sad times.  My SIL helped me to understand when her mom was dying that even though it's heartbreaking to see a loved one suffer, it's part of their journey. And it's not our place to effect any change.  If it's their time it's bigger than us. We will all be there one day.  I'm watching my mom suffer with the latter stages of Alzheimer's - a cruel way to grow old and there's nothing I can do but love her and hold her hand.  You're doing all you should be doing by loving her and helping her along her way.  Thanks for sharing with your KW.com family and I hope you're better today.  Emoticon 4951

Thanks to all of you , my hubby & I are going to visit with Fredia & George tomorrow . George is 94 & when Fredia is gone he will go to live with his daughter in Florida . Fredia is on alot of drugs to make her comfortable but this also makes her sleep all the time . Hospice is there everyday & they say it is just a matter of time before Fredia leaves on her next journey .It will be a relief when she is no longer in pain , but it will be sadness for all who are left here without Fredia in our lives. She is a wonderful person & a dear friend to all who know her.   4951
