dc.description.abstract	Since 1982, cancer has been the leading cause of death in Taiwan, claiming over 30,000 lives annually. For certain families facing a cancer diagnosis, communication within the family helps them cope together and support each other, emotionally and physically, from diagnosis through treatment. The topic of breast cancer may also alter the usual boundaries of communication between family members.
