Reality star Diem Brown is reportedly dealing with the struggle to survive after new tumors were discovered in her kidneys, leaving her friends to do what they can to be there for her.

On Tuesday, Hollywood Life posted an interview with Brown's best friend, Julie Rotondi, who talked about how difficult things are right now for The Challenge star. Unfortunately, due to this new tumor discovery, Brown has to put chemo on hold.

"She was anxious to get things going with chemo, so its hard to hear 'you can't have the other half yet because we have to figure out what's going on with your kidneys,'" Rotondi said. "Just getting out of the apartment is a big process- she alternates between a walker and wheelchair, but any type of outing is extremely draining and painful."

Despite the challenging efforts that Brown has to face, Rotondi made it clear that she and her other group of friends are doing everything they can to help her through the process.

"We have a tight group who tries to split up responsibilities, go to appointments, pick up meds, and make sure she's never on her own for more than a couple hours," Rotondi said. "We try to keep her distracted, laughing, feeling like things are as normal as possible."

Brown's best friend then revealed that the star is just looking forward to the day where there's no more pain and she can just move forward with the treatment.
