How can I be an emotional support to someone with cancer?

I think to be an emotional support to someone going through cancer, if you're available for them, if you'll listen to them, if you'll nurture them, if you'll take their mind off what they're going through, distract them and have fun with them. You can offer to do just an ordinary chores that they might have to do. If you'd bring meals to them, or pick up their children for them, or run any errands and get their meds for them, it's really helpful. And especially if you go to the doctors appointments and listen with them, because it can be so overwhelming when you have cancer, and you're not hearing it correctly perhaps.
