The Relationships and Support section of the Rare Cancer Support Guide can help you manage the impacts of cancer on your personal life. It provides practical ideas on how to navigate difficult emotions and find the right support for yourself and those around you.
The Relationships and Support booklet covers:
- A range of emotions
Tips for managing difficult emotions and where to turn for support
- Your well-being
How to care for yourself and the value of connecting with others
- Breaking the news
Tips for talking about your cancer experience with others
- Relationships
Changes you may encounter in your intimate relationships
- Managing the helpers
How to get the best out of your helpers and support network
- Caring for someone with cancer
Tips for supporting your loved one and taking care of yourself at the same time
The advice comes directly from patients and carers who have been there, and from the knowledge of many health care professionals across the cancer care sector. It also includes the lessons we’ve learned at RCA over many years of supporting people living with rare cancer in Australia.
