I understand what you're going through. I had a friend who I never thought to invite to gatherings because she was always ALWAYS busy with her family and farm. But after she got diagnosed with leukemia, everyone started to invite her to everything, anything. It's like we were terrified that we'd lose a chance to visit with her.
She's still alive, though. Fighting it daily, but still alive. But she brightened up every single time we invited her to something. She couldn't make it to all of them, of course (family, farm, sick) but she so appreciated the invites.
