I am sorry to hear about your friend's situation.

Let the friend lead the conversation. Let it happen organically. Perhaps your presence is welcome because you aren't trying to pretend what's happening isn't happening. Ask your friend how you can help...what would they like to do/talk about.

There's no script.
I'm your huckleberry.
