Hi, full disclosure: I'm a 19 year old male medical student, and nowhere near ready to be a parent and this is my first time on here. My reason for joining mumsnet is because I need some advice! Recently, One of my best and closest friend's parents was diagnosed with cancer. She's the sort that doesn't really want to talk about her feelings but I can obviously tell she's not alright (not that anyone would be in that situation). I just want to be a supportive friend and make sure she doesn't feel alone but I don't know how to go about doing that since she's acting like she's completely fine and I don't want to push incase I make her feel worse. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
