Cancer can have a dramatic impact on family life. As a result of changes in cancer detection and survival, a growing number of families have been touched by this illness. This article reviews some of the challenges these families face.An initial conceptual model is offered, which describes how family adjustment is influenced by medical, developmental, and family-systems factors, including phase of treatment, family structure, life-cycle tasks, personal constructions of illness, and family resources. The authors consider which families might be most vulnerable or resilient to distress and describe family interventions.
