Life is Change my friend and if nothing else, when you're in an uncomfortable situation, in pain or suffering in some way, the knowledge that everything is changing and nothing is permanent can be of some comfort.
Be happy for your friend and smile at these thoughts of clinging as when you start to understand them they actually can be quite amusing.
Have you listened to the talk on "what is Buddhism" posted on this site? I really enjoyed the bit about being able to laugh and it really connected with me.
