Changes in how we look or how we
THINK we look, following a diagnosis of cancer, or as a result
of cancer treatments, can have a major impact on how we feel and
how we behave.
These changes may affect how we feel about our appearance or
our relationships with others.
As a result we may experience anxiety, low mood and feel less
confident. All of which can influence our self acceptance and
quality of life.
