Update on my friend who has breast cancer
Just got this e-mail from her S.O.:

<<Diane is having a real tough time. I know you wanted to come visit this weekend, but she's not in any condition for that. The chemotherapy is causing a lot of sores in her mouth and throat, where she can barely eat anything. She's crying a lot and mostly staying in bed when she doesn't have to go to work or to the doctor.

I think she'll eventually be okay, but she's going to have a real rough next 4 to 6 months.>>

3. Sorry to hear she is having such a rough time.
Send her cards often so she know she is in your thoughts even when she can't take visitors.

Let her know you think of her.

Hoping for a good outcome for her, and all the people dealing with this.

4. My brother
was like that when he was ill. He didn't want me to see him like that.
I'll say a prayer for your friend.

5. That sucks. I hope she gets better.
Do send her SO a note or something to tell her that you are thinking of her.
