End stage colon cancer

I asked a question about stage 4 colon cancer and no one has answered it yet...I don't understand why! I need the answer to help my dearest friend through this; realizing his time is short is not an easy fact to accept.
I'm sure there is someone out there who could open up for me! I'm not stupid and realize humans don't like to talk about death, yet it is the final act of all of us.
Why can't someone please come forward and help me to please fill in the blanks. Colon cancer is one of the fastest growing cancers and death takes many patients; please tell me what to expect before it's too late to be prepared so that I can comfort him and help make his last weeks easier.
I just want some honest answers about how much time he has and what to expect...surely others have seen the last weeks or days of stage 4 colon cancer. Thank you.
