Damn those doctors for telling him when he will die! When they put that belief in someone's head, it's almost always self-fulfilling. He should ignore it.

Yes, our minds are very powerful. You might argue that doctors are making an informed guess, but it is still a guess. I do know of a spiritual being who survived such a diagnosis. It is a mysterious Universe and none of us knows what will happen.

They should lie to him instead? Not what I would want.

No, they just should not try to predict it. That takes away all hope of living longer.
