My husbands best friend is at the end stages of oral cancer. His wife is holding up (they have 3 daughters) the best she can. They are getting plenty of food delivered and have his mother to help out.

My question is....what can I do to support her without invading her privacy? I send her texts telling her I am praying for her and thinking of her and that we are here in anyway- but I know she would never reach out for any help. We feel helpless. I read somewhere that when things calm down to just call her and inform her that we are going to lunch, or to the movies, or to the mall at a set time- or that I am coming over to cut the lawn or walk the dog or take the kids to the movies. And not give her the option of saying no.

Do any of you have advice for me?
