9 months and need advise

It has been 9 months since I quit.  I am doing great!  I hardly think about it except when I smell it on someone and think that smells nasty and I am so happy I don't smell like that anymore.   I do need some advise.  My best Friend who is only 47 and I have been friends with her for about 30 years has just been diagnosed with diabetes.  She has numbness in her feet already.  I am no Dr. but I think she has had it for a while . (she didn't know until the leg pain got to bad to take last week)   I have been researching on the internet.  She is a heavy smoker, overweight and gets no excercise.  She has high blood pressure also.  She weezes and is on medicine for that.  From what I have read she needs to quit smoking top priority.  When she was diagnosed last week she went to get her perscriptions filled and brought home cake and ate it.  I don't want to loose my best friend.  Can anyone tell me what to do?  When I quit smoking she didn't say much.  She said she likes smoking and would not quit.  I don't want her to get mad at me but I feel something should be said.  Please give me some suggestions.  Thank you!!!
