Summary

This study tests a program for older adults (65+) with cancer and mild memory issues, along with their spouse or caregiver. Over six video sessions, the pair learns strategies to manage challenges. The goal is to see if the program reduces distress and improves quality of life. About 80 participants will complete surveys before, after, and one month later.
