A family member has prostate cancer. how can i help him??
Answers: you don't need to be right next to the person to give them support.
call him and talk to him, let him know you are concerned and care for what he is going through.
let him know if he wants to talk you are available.
stay by his/her side, & try 2 cheer them up... dont give up hope, i know sumone who had lung cancer but i stayed by her side & hellped her get through it
lots of hugs, kisses and attention
Be supportive, and ask him how you can help. Prostrate has a very high cure rate, so your family member is fortunate! It's very important he keep all of his appointments for treatment and for the doctor. Good luck!
the best way to help is by being there...give them support. The next best thing is to help them on following up to their medicines and treatments. Normally any Cancer pacient will come to a point where he'she will want to give up because of pain or frustration...you should be there in those important times
boost him as in give him confidence
Pray with them and for them. Be there when they need you. Tell them you love them.
Ask your family member what you can do.His he getting radiation or chemo? Does he need rides to from appointments? Does he need help around the house.Stay positive and let your family member maintain their independence. Be supportive and don't try to make decisions for him.
dont feel pity, dont remind him every time he has cancer unless he wants to talk. if hes afraid of not having sex ever again, tell him thats not correct. if treatment makes him feel sick, respect his moments
