How do you help someone when they're battling cancer?

Answer by  Sher123 (51)

If you see something that needs to be done, don't ask, just do it. If they have animals, take care of them when you're there. Do household chores, yard work or every day things that the person feels is important but can't do. Fix tasty meals and share quality time together.

First, let a cancer patient know that are there for them. Find out what they need. It may be a ride somehwere, dinner cooked, information searched out. Give them your phone number and e mail. You must be committed to this task because eventually you may be needed often.

Just be there for them and don't be afraid to talk about the situation. Let your loved one know that you want them to be able to tell you what they need and how they're feeling. Also, look to resources like the American Cancer Society. They have lots of information on how to be supportive.
