Living with Cancer

When you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, you can find your world turned upside down. But UAB provides help not only in the form of the best medical treatment available, but also with support groups and help with the psychological issues that accompany cancer.

Cancer Support Groups
When you or a loved one is fighting cancer, you face many challenges that can be difficult to deal with alone. That’s why the UAB Comprehensive Cancer Center offers a wide array of cancer support groups in addition to national support groups, that are available to help you through the roughest times in your life.

Coping with Cancer by Sharing Your Feelings
Getting a cancer diagnosis can be one of the most stressful and upsetting times in your life. Many people experience emotions they’ve never had before, and often don’t know what do with the pent up anger, sadness, fear and worry that come with the disease. It’s important to share your feelings in order to cope with this change in your life.
