Best Answer

Give them all the love and support you can. You both need all the help and comfort you can muster at this stage. This is the time to get things in order and say all the things you want them to know as they prepare for death. Stage four has only a 3% chance of reaching a five year survival. It is time for you to get family and friends to help you cope with the inevitable. Many hospitals have palliative care professionals who can help guide you through this major trauma in your life.
