A friend revealed that he has cancer and I don't know what to say to him. I'm sure that he doesn't want to hear the generic and meaningless, "sending positive vibes your way." Which I doubt assists in lessening a persons fears. Unless one can commit to physically being there whenever needed, I don't know if there's much to say. The truth is that a simple hand on the shoulder is much more assuring and powerful.
I don't know .... maybe to a glass half full type personality, positive vibes would help and be welcomed? Personally I think they are of little value. I know that no one that is out there (well maybe one or two people if it were my own health situation) sending the more powerful, negative vibes. No one that matters anyway. I'm pretty confident that everyone is rooting for their friends recovery.
