Özet

The physical, emotional, financial and social problems experienced by cancer patients not only during the treatment process but also for many years after treatment have a significant impact on marital and family relationships. The burden of the disease causes restructuring not only of the individual but also of the spouse and the family system. Changes in the marital relationship can directly affect many processes from the perception of the disease to coping styles, from adaptation to treatment to psychological resilience. This study was planned to understand the experiences of cancer patients in marital and family relationships during the disease process, to reveal how these relationships are affected and how they change.
