The most you can do for your friend and her family is to be there for her. Family and support from friends is what keeps all of us managing with new diagnoses, etc. I know it's soon after her first episode and hopefully they will be able to get her into remission again. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your friend. Let me know how things continue with her progress. By the way, I had BC in 1995 and it came back in 2006, much more aggressive this time, it's been 18 mo and I'm hanging in there, still doing treatment and taking one day at a time.
