Family and friends play a vital role in supporting a cancer survivor's recovery. They can:
1. Offer Emotional Support: Listening, providing companionship, and being patient are key. 2. Assist with Daily Activities: Helping with chores, meals, and transportation can ease the burden on the survivor. 3. Encourage Healthy Habits: Motivating the survivor to eat well, exercise, and attend follow-up appointments can foster a healthier recovery. 4. Educate Themselves: Understanding more about the survivor’s condition and treatment can enable better support.
