New (sadly) to these boards and I'm glad I found them. My boyfriend's mother has been diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer - not sure what stage, but doesn't sound good. I'm just having a hard time of trying to find the right words...what do I say to him? I tell him that he needs to open up to me and talk to me about his feelings, but he's not saying alot. It doesn't help that we are long distance, so I can't be there physically to just give him a hug or make him dinner, etc. He just keeps telling me how much it "sucks", but not really opening up to me. Any words of advice? Thank you!
