First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at how financial stress from cancer treatment affects quality of life in breast cancer survivors, and whether personal strengths like resilience and posttraumatic growth can soften that blow. About 160 women will fill out surveys before, during, and after chemotherapy. The goal is to understand if these inner resources can help protect well-being, even when money is tight.
