That's how some of us comfort others... with humour.
What's the use of spending the rest of your days all gloomy? Might as well try to have some fun.
As an advice, show your friend that movie and hear him/her/them have a laugh. Relate it to the current situation ... I don't know... talk about it. And then, if they like it, watch other Ricky Gervais films.
One other thing that is often on older people's minds is what they regret doing/not doing in their lives... maybe it's not a bad idea to just go there and suggest you two do something that was never done... if possible.
*vent time*
Sheesh. You come here with barely any details and expect random internet people to give you insight into how to deal with a random person who has some medical condition that's terminal?
You didn't even tell us if this person is bedridden or is still fully functional and expect us to advise you... how?!?
By writing out generic platitudes? No, screw you!
Use chatGPT for that. It's well versed in ALL the generic platitudes that humanity has ever written and it will cough out everything you need with far more precision than we would.
Dear Sir or Madam,
Other people managed to offer general advice of some considerable value. If you aren't able to contribute meaningfully, then how about leaving it alone. I wouldn't dream of telling rude people like yourself about the (now deceased) person's circumstances.
