B...
There is a lot of good advice here. May I suggest, just "bite the bullet" and go to see the person. He is your friend, show him that that is still the feeling. Ask if there is anything that you can do for him. I had a friend who I had worked with. He came down w/brain tumor w/4months to live. Drs told him to go home and get everything together. When I visited him, I asked, is there anything that I can do for you. His reply was extremely difficult for me to muster. Yes, I want you to help me build my casket, was his reply. I had lumps in my throat for several days, but they went away while we laughed and worked on his casket. You can build your own casket in Texas.
Last words: go see the guy, show him that the friendship still exist.
Good Luck........
