a friend of mine, his wife is dying,i haven't really talked to them in over two years(cancer).should i callher

Question:

should i call her and wish her fair well, and let her know that , she will be missed, or would that be wrong,

Answers:
I don't think I'd do that. Some people really don't want to think or talk about dying, even if they know they are. And often, the person who has cancer is still holding out for some hope of beating it, even though the people who love him have kind of given up. So, what you heard may not be what the woman really is hoping for.

But yes, you should call her. Let her know that you know she has cancer, and that you are always available for a chat, or to run an errand, if they need help with anything.

Call her and don't wish her fairwell. Ask if you can help her in anyway. Take a meal over in the crockpot---helps when they don't have to cook.
Your friend will need you emotionally---he probably needs to talk.
Just DON'T ignore them.

I think you should call, and just talk to them. No one want to be reminded they are sick. If they tell you or it comes up, then tell them what you feel. Dont talk to them just to wish them well. Talk to them to re-conenct. If you were nto that close, they mabye there is no point in calling at all.
