A member asked:
What do you suggest if my sister in law is having a mastectomy, what are the right things to say to her?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Listen: In my opinion, listening to her is more important than what you say. Let her know you support her, love her, and are there for her. Then just be a good listener and she will tell you what she needs from you.
