If a person is diagnosed with cancer, the period of diagnosis, treatment and aftercare is often very stressful for those affected and their relatives. Support and information can help to deal better with worries, fears and problems during this time. The "Info Series Cancer" is intended to help answer questions on selected topics from the everyday lives of people with cancer and their families.

The cancer information series is aimed at patients, relatives and anyone else who is interested. We look forward to hearing from you!
