I'm so sad right now, I don't feel like making that much discussions today and I don't know what to do. I can't really bear the pain of losing a friend because he's one of my best friends ever since I was nine. He has lung cancer due to second hand smoking and I'm torn apart. He went to the ER in the hospital due to chest pains and I thought everything was going to be okay until I received a phone call from my friends mom. She was crying and I asked her what's wrong and she told me the sad news. I can't even think straight right now. Please wish my friend your blessings and prayers to make it through this.

Hi friend, Its really a sad news.Its your turn that you should give confidence to their parents and to him,because of this encouragement he will be happy and live for so many years than what he thought now.May god bless for long time. Don't make him down friend.Always try to give good advice to him.Even though telling theory is easy but we have nothing to do now.Its almost over.Try to encourage him now and then in doing his things.

Oh, this is so sad about your friend. It's a good thing that you now have a phone so that you can call him every single day and check on his progress. I hope that he'll be okay and I know that he will be so happy to have someone like you as a friend standing by his side every step of the way.
