Hi, Carolyn: Sadly, my aunt is approaching the end of a multiyear terminal battle with cancer. It’s going to be really tough for everyone, especially my mom, her other sisters and her kids. I’m entirely on the sidelines and don’t know how to be more supportive. Nobody brings up her condition in depth or how they’re feeling, though I do ask. Can I change this now? I am visiting her soon.
