Being supportive: Spend as much time as u can with friend or as much time as your friend would like u there. Temp with favorite foods. Let friend cry if need be ; cry with him/her. Remember happy times together. Above all let friend know you are there for them, agree should they say how sad or unfair it is. You ; friend know that the end isn't far away ; there is no pont in denying it unless friend wishes to.
