  • Thank you for your post. My wife and I have noticed a similar reaction from friends after her diagnosis of late stage agressive cancer. We were for the most part mystified as to the reason. Carolyn's column and the reader discussions will help me to be a lot more sympathetic toward our friends.

  • AL: I'm so sorry to hear about your wife, but I am glad this helped. I forgot to read the comments. I must do that!

     

    Maggie: It is good, isn't it? That young lady has a new fan in me.
