I've watched several friends go through painful agonizing times from MS, cancer, and other significant illnesses. It is very difficult to see them endure what must seem like endless suffering.

I've found that sometimes the best thing and only thing you have left to do is try to lessen the suffering and pray for a peaceful and pain free end. As in all things, we must all come to our end. It is in the manner of the passing that can give some degree of comfort to the one suffering as well as those who are supporting them.

I hope for the best for your friend, but at the least, to have friends and family around her for comfort when she needs it most. I've been told that God never gives us more than we can endure and I have come to believe it as I get older.
