How to navigate humor and lightness when your friend group faces serious illness

Our friend group used to be the ones who could make light of anything and get through hard times by cracking jokes but ever since Sarah's cancer diagnosis we all walk on eggshells and no one knows if it's okay to be funny anymore and the heaviness is suffocating all of us.

What we've seen
