Depression
People who are battling a serious illness or loss are especially prone to depression. Caregivers and family members are also at risk. The chemicals that keep our brain functioning can become depleted during times of stress.

Anger
Anger – normally seen as a negative emotion – is not an uncommon companion on the journey through the valley of suffering .
Fear
The waves of fear faced by those who battle cancer can be overwhelming, sometimes even debilitating. But life goes on despite our fears. So when we feel fear’s clammy grip, what can we do?
Pain
