Family, Friends, and School
This section offers suggestions for teenagers on coping with changes at home, with friends, and at school.
Cancer and Your Family:  Cancer affects everyone in your family. As the family routine changes, your relationships with your parents and siblings may also change. Some teenagers report that cancer brings them closer to their parents and siblings.
Cancer and Your Friends:  Cancer can affect your friendships. Some relationships may grow stronger, and others may fade.
Cancer and School:  One of your immediate concerns may be how to handle both school and cancer. Whether you're trying to keep up with your classes or wondering how your classmates will react, there are things you and your parents can do to help make the process easier.
