Your tone policing in offensive. Psychological and quality of life in end of life situations are valid and necessary considerations to include when talking about life threatening conditions.

I said nothing about how a terminally ill person should process anything. I stated what I have found to provide the best outcome when a person close to you has a terminal disease. If OP said 'my friend asked me to research...' I would have given a different response/no response.

But when OP makes it look like this is an initiative OP took upon themselves, for themselves, because they have lost too many friends, then yeah, I'm going to highlight that might not be the best possible position to come from if OP wants the best outcome for their friend. My response about outcomes it totally valid since OP asked for help with outcomes.
