Supporting Loved Ones With Cancer

“Breast cancer diagnosis not only brings physical challenges, but significant emotional and psychological challenges, as well. It is something no one wants to face alone. The spouse of the cancer patient feels the impact of the diagnosis, and their support can be crucial to recovery. The couple goes through cancer together.”  – Second Opinion with Joan Lunden
