Cancer, you and your partner

This information is about how cancer can affect your relationship with your partner. It aims to help you understand some of the practical and emotional issues, and discusses what may help.

It is important to remember that there isn’t a 'right' way to cope with cancer. How you both deal with it will depend on your personalities, your life experiences and how you cope with challenging life situations.
