Emotional Aspects of Cancer

There is no 'right' way to experience or cope with cancer - everyone is different. What works for you might not work for someone else. Try to honor whatever emotion you are feeling - anger, fear, sadness, anxiety and depression may all be part of your journey. Many of our programs are aimed at helping you cope with the emotions and learn new coping strategies. Check our calendar for the program that is right for you.

The American Cancer Society and the National Cancer Institute both have helpful brochures available in print in our libraries, or online at the following links:
