Abstract
There is a need to practically redefine the future way of life, among
numerous patients with breast cancer (BC). In fact, spirituality, hope, and gratitude
may play a remarkable role in a possible transformation into a “new life”. Also, these
invisible, positive “forces” recognize patients as individual human beings, which
should be connected with their families, caregivers, friends, and medical professionals,
as functional “units”.
This chapter provides some suggestions for practical approaches to help design a
functional “new life”, especially for women with aggressive BC (e.g., triple-negative
breast cancer (TNBC)). In addition, medical care teams may consider incorporating
such supportive modalities into the main therapeutic oncology plan.
