Summary
This study looks at how spirituality — personal beliefs, values, and meaning — influences adults recently diagnosed with blood cancers like lymphoma or leukemia, as well as their loved ones. Participants fill out three questionnaires about spiritual well-being, quality of life, and symptoms. The goal is to understand spiritual needs early in treatment, not just at end of life, so care can be more holistic.
