There were only three cupcakes left for my parents and me.
Is there anything else bothering you?
I'm thinking of calling an old friend who recently got cancer.
It's good to contact someone you care about whose in that situation. Even if you don't know what to say, reaching out will probably mean a lot.
I am feeling good since I will have some time to connect with my friend before he dies.
Supporting someone who is sick will a terminal illness is a good thing to do as they will find comfort in your being there for them. Just knowing that other people care can be such a wonderful source of solace. I'm sorry your friend isn't well, but I'm glad you are going to be able to help, even if it's just a little bit.
