Malignant tumor is the second most frequent cause of death in Poland. A steady increase in cancer mortality has been observed in Poland. The introduction of modern research methods has contributed to an increase in cancer detection and enhanced therapeutic effects. New medical achievements, the introduction of new drugs or more optimal treatment techniques can become a source of further improvement of the situation. The appearance of cancer in the family completely changes the lives of its individual members. The way of thinking, feelings, actions, the hierarchy of goals and values change depending on the phase of the disease and the progress of treatment. Nevertheless, the fight against cancer in the family is still an issue little known in Polish psycho-oncology. The article shows the impact of cancer on the patient’s family, focusing on the sociological, psychological and spiritual dimensions of attitudes and reactions of families towards oncologically ill relatives. One of the author’s main goals is to examine how fear and anxiety develop in families affected by cancer.
