1 Introduction This activity looks at how individuals cope with cancer, the challenges that are faced with a cancer diagnosis, what can keep individuals going, and the practicalities of treatment. In this activity, you will:  discover how individuals cope with cancer by listening to their personal experiences. Slide 1 of 6© South West Health Colleges Consortium 2012 Coping with Cancer

2 Cancer and people’s emotions Cancer strikes with little reason. It does not discriminate, and chooses its victims regardless of wealth or social status. It has a cruel way of robbing someone of their dignity, self-respect and independence, and can be physically and financially draining. It can steal one's hope and joy. In short, it can be very difficult to cope with cancer. Through their journey, a patient will experience a number of different emotions, which can be very confusing. Just remember, that in most circumstances, what they are feeling is a normal reaction to an abnormal situation – living with cancer.

3 Cancer and people’s feelings There are a number of feelings that people can have after a diagnosis of cancer. Some people report experiencing each one, while others only some, so it is difficult to say exactly what each person will feel along the way. For example, some people have reported feelings of vulnerability, depression, anger, fear, and hopelessness. Others have indicated they were forced to face their own mortality and for the first time in their life consider whether they would survive cancer. Still others search for reason, understanding and emotional support to help them deal with cancer. The important thing to remember is that there are many similarities in how people deal with cancer, yet each person is different. Watch the video on the next screen, which shows people who have been through cancer treatment, and reflect on their stories.
