Coping with cancer
A cancer diagnosis can affect many aspects of life – from your physical health to your emotions, relationships and day-to-day routines. It’s normal to feel uncertain or overwhelmed, and to have many questions along the way. Cancer Council SA is here to help. We provide trustworthy information, resources and support to guide you and your family through the challenges of cancer, and to connect you with services that can make things a little easier.
Advanced cancer
Living with advanced cancer, or supporting someone who is, can bring many emotions and challenges. It’s natural to feel uncertain, worried, or overwhelmed. These resources are here to provide guidance, comfort and practical support as you navigate this stage of life.
Supporting someone with cancer
When someone you care about is diagnosed with cancer, it can be hard to know what to say or how best to help. Every relationship is unique and there are many different ways you can provide support during this challenging time. Cancer Council offers a range of free resources to support people impacted by cancer, including carers, family and friends, to cope with the emotions and changes that a diagnosis can bring.
