Answers:
Just visit him and let him talk!. If he won't talk, ask for advice about something you think he likes to talk about!. Do a lot of listening, not talking!. I am sure he needs help!. I am also strong-willed and when I went through chemo I needed help and didn't ask for it!. What did I want!? Someone to just come over, show up, and help!. Period!. When we ask, we aren't sure if they are doing it because they have to!. I would rather do it myself in that case!.

So just show up!. Listen and wait!. Listen some more!. Then on your way out take out the trash, wash up the dishes!. Call him when you are on the way to the pharmacy or grocery store!. Can I pick something up for you!? You can figure it out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

By not being a pest, and especially by not making him think you are being nice to him just because you know about his situation!. Find a legit excuse to spend time with him!. Do you want to help him because it makes you feel better or because it will make him feel better!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
