text: what do u consider a true friend? my best friend for 22 years has recently lost her mom due to cancer. we have gotten much closer since her mom died. in which it was like my own mom dying. she was the only child, she has 1 girl. and 4 yrs ago she lost her leg due to health problems. she is like my own sister. it's like i'm going through everything she is going through. i have been by herside everday. what could i do for her to cheer her up some? keep doing what you're doing, its seems like if you are a real true friend, and your friend is very lucky or should i say, she's very bless to have you, now in days is very hard to have a friend like you, someone that is always there in good times and bad times, so just keep showing her how much you love her, and tell her every day how special she is for you. god bless you and god bless your friend.
