I'm 53 and I've known Liz, my best friend nearly all my life. We went to school together.... She is the loveliest person I know yet she was diagnosed with Lung Cancer which has now spread to various places including her brain. Just can't understand why such awful things happen to such lovely people. I lost my mum 3 years ago due to bowel cancer, she died in theatre and since then my uncle and aunt also passed with cancer... Liz has been there for me forever I just want to be there for her but I feel so useless.
