Hi Cole, you and your friend have my sympathies.
I'd just be as honest and open with them as I could be. If their thinking and talking about their death talk with them about it and how you feel. If they are remembering the past then bring up both the good and bad times. Crying, cry with them....... laughing, laugh with them. However, I know that some people go very dark when they know that their death is near. Try not to go down that rabbit hole, I don't think that helps any involved.
It sounds like this is your last chance to keep your connection and celebrate their life, make the most of it that you can.
Best wishes.

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
