Doctors test if sharing stories eases cancer burden

NCT ID NCT06374251

Summary

This small study explored whether 'narrative medicine'—using storytelling, reflective writing, and discussion—could improve the sense of well-being for people with digestive system cancers. Eight patients participated in three workshops to see if focusing on their personal stories helped them cope. The main goal was to test if this approach was practical and if it made patients feel better emotionally and psychologically.
