He can get thru this

Hi,
Your friend likely is not going to die.
It does feel terrible, but he can help himself, too.
Depending on a drug/doctors to heal him is useless. He has to come to terms with the disease and get a grip. Giving in to despair will not help, as it is imperative he keep down the stress.

I have a friend too that went thru this and it was hell for awhile, but he lives normally now!

He learned he had to accept it and move on. Your friend may need some counseling to help him deal with the illness and the run around that patients often get.

God be with you and him!
