'Are you ok?'
That is one of the worst questions to be asked, especially when the individual is fully aware that there is something wrong and there is no possible way for you to be 'ok'.
Obviously, since it is such a commonly asked question, the answer is going to be given almost subconsciously.
When people are in states of distress and discomfort, it is best to ask either direct questions or none at all. A casual "Are you ok" will neither offer any assistance nor encourage the individual to elaborate on their present condition.
If it just so happens that someone is faced with such a situation as was previously mentioned my suggestion is a hug. It's as simple as that.
A hug can say many things especially when your mouth cannot.
-a hug may not heal someone, but the healing is not up to you-

I'm praying for you Lauren....
Remember that God has it in His control, and that no matter what happens, it's in God's Perfect Will.
I love you Lauren!!
Never underestimate the power of prayer. I realize saying "I'm praying for you" is sometimes seen as a cliche; remember last summer; that was our theme basically. Keep praying, and keep seeking Him.
I LOVE YOU!!!!!!
I second that prayer motion.
