Send her a "thinking of you" card and let her know she's in your thoughts and prayers. Let her know if she needs anything, do not hesitate to call you. Just to know someone cares about her will touch her deeply and let her know not all people in the world are bad.

Pick out a nice card that you feel suits hers and your personality.  Sign it simply, that's best.  \n\nLike,\n\n"You mean a lot to me, and my prayers and thoughts are with you."\n\nor\n\n"Please know I am here for you in this difficult time."\n\nDon't fo with the "so sorry" thing...it's overdone and we all know how little the usual response like that affects us.  Let your friend know you care.  That is what it is all about.

Well for one thing be honest and upfront about it. Say something! I was in the same situation once before.  I just told them how I felt them and that made them feel comfortable enough to let me know that they were feeling the same. Just don't hide it.  I will come back to haunt in the future.  Believe me when I say it.

Just casually drop it into the conversation about what is going on with you. Something like, "On Friday I am going to be treating myself to a manicure for my birthday."

You should just be very honest. Tell her that it was a wonderful job and that you would love to be back on board.

Eleven years ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer. After my mastectomy the "cure" (chemo and radiation) made me as sick as a dog.\n\nI recovered through the many miracles of modern medicines, skilled professionals, the love and support of family and friends and the power of faith & prayer.A little stubborness on my part also helped!

Above anything I would consult your Doctor and possibly a Nutritionist about what foods may be helpful.  Here is some information I found on the net, hope it helps.  Good luck and God Bless!\n\nWhat happens after treatment for cancer of the uterus?\n\nRegular follow-up exams are very important for any woman who has been treated for cancer of the uterus. The doctor will want to watch the patient closely for several years to be sure that the cancer has not returned. In general, follow-up examinations include a pelvic exam, a chest x-ray, and laboratory tests.\n\nWhen people have cancer, life can change for them and for the people who care about them. These changes in daily life can be difficult to handle. When a woman finds out she has uterine cancer, a number of different and sometimes confusing emotions may appear.\n\nAt times, patients and family members may feel depressed, angry, or frightened. At other times, feelings may vary from hope to despair or from courage to fear. Patients usually are better able to cope with their emotions if they can talk openly about their illness and their feelings with family members and friends.\n\nConcerns about the future, as well as about medical tests, treatments, hospital stays, and medical bills, often arise. Talking to doctors, nurses, or other members of the health care team may help to ease fear and confusion. Patients can ask questions about their disease and its treatment and can take an active part in decisions about their medical care. Patients and family members often find it helpful to write down questions for the doctor as they think of them. Taking notes during visits to the doctor also can help patients remember what was said. Patients should ask the doctor to repeat or explain more fully anything that is not clear.\n\nPatients have many important questions to ask about cancer, and their doctor is the best person to provide answers. Most people ask what kind of cancer they have, how it is treated, and how successful the treatment is likely to be.\n\nMany women become concerned, especially after surgery and radiation therapy, that the changes to their bodies will affect how other people feel about them. They may worry about working, caring for their family, or about how cancer and its treatment will affect their sex life. Usually, as the patient recovers, the changes to her body become more accepted. With love and support, patients gradually feel reassured that they are just as appreciated as before.\n\nThe patient's doctor is the best person to give advice about working or other activities, but it may be hard to talk to the doctor about feelings and other very personal matters. Many patients find it helpful to talk with others who are facing similar problems. This kind of help is available through cancer- related support groups, such as those described in the next section. If the emotional problems of the patient or family become too hard to handle, a mental health counselor may be able to help.\n\nhttp://www.medicinenet.com/uterine_cancer/page5.htm\n\nCancer Information Service (CIS)\n1-800-4-CANCER\n\nThe Cancer Information Service, a program of the National Cancer Institute, is a nationwide telephone service for cancer patients, their families and friends, the public, and health care professionals. The staff can answer questions in English and Spanish and can send booklets about cancer. They also know about local resources and services. One toll-free number, 1-800-4-CANCER (1-800-422-6237), connects callers with the office that serves their area.\n\nAmerican Cancer Society (ACS)\n1599 Clifton Road, N.E. \nAtlanta, GA 30329\n1-800-ACS-2345

I'm sorry to hear of your loss.  As a cancer patient myself I personally feel that you handled the situation very well and that your mother understood the depth of your love for her.  I'm happiest when my family is doing normal things and not concentrating on cancer.  Big hugs to you.

Well, what does your doctor say?  I mean you had cancer because you are on Tamoxifen so there are chances the cancer can return.
