The Relationship Between the Loved One and the Patient in the Case of Cancer: 2

A person who finds out they have cancer faces a lot of different issues - uncertainty, fear - and the fact that their relationships with their close people change is secondary at first. So you have to be someone who is aware that relationships are also changing and be supportive. However, do not fall into the same ditch - if you try too hard to sniff, to pity, to do nothing, you may end up with more losses than gains. It will not help if people feel that they are treated like a porcelain cup that cannot be touched. Life should be tried to continue as before, but with attention to physical exercise and reducing emotional tension. Of course, situations and conditions can be very different. It may be that a person really needs to be "carried around" for a while, or, for example, allowed to rest undisturbed in the days after chemotherapy, or, on the contrary, to bustle about.
