Let’s say you know someone who’s best friend happens to be dying. Let’s say this person tells you, after spending an afternoon with this best friend, that the two of them cracked jokes, talked sports, and watched “Meerkat Manner”, just as they did before all the hospital rooms and tracheotomy tubes changed things. Let’s say this person tells you that his best friend seemed to be feeling the best he’s felt in quite some time. That his best friend seemed carefree, hopeful, and happy.
Do not, under any circumstances, tell this person that it was probably just all the medication that was making his best friend behave this way. It will deflate his spirit.
