A member asked:

What can be the response back be when a friend says he was just diagnosed with cancer? saying "sorry" seems so "inappropriate". ideas?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See below: Saying sorry is okay. "I am so sorry to hear about your health problem. Please advise if I may be of assistance". The second part is only if you are able to help, e.g., take the person to the doctor or the hospital.
