My friend may die...

[Robert_Dobo_USC]

I didn't know where to go so I came here to talk. Maybe just typing this out will help me feel better. I just got a call today that one of my best friend had a seizure on the weekend and they found a tumour in his head and it doesn't look good for him. He is going in for more tests tomorrow but the word is not good so far. I haven't seen him in a couple of years because of my agoraphobia and now I am feeling like a horrible friend for not having seen him. Just writing this is making me cry, yes guys do cry sometimes.

I just need someone to talk to, I'm 28, my friend is only 32. I don't know if I should go over there or if I should leave them be, they may not want me and my emotions over there right now.

I have dealt with death before but not with someone so young and so close. I just cannot shake this feeling of guilt, that I haven't been around in so long, that I haven't been a good friend.

Oh wow, what a day.

Why wouldn't they want you around? If he's your best friend I'm sure he would love to see you now.
As for not seeing him for a couple of years....people sometimes go in different directions, it wasn't your fault you had agoraphobia, did he come and see you at all? I don't think you're a horrible friend, you obvioulsy still care about him, that makes you a good friend.

I think they need time to themselves right now, allow everything to sink in, I would just be in the way if I were there. 32 years old, it is just so young. No it's best at this point that I stay away, I will try to get the nerve up tomorrow to call and give them my best wishes. Maybe the tests will come out good and it's something they can operate on.
