When someone you love is diagnosed with Cancer, it’s important to never keep any secrets. Families are different in the way they handle their discussions about Cancer, especially with their children. While it might be common sense to keep a Cancer diagnosis a secret from a young child, eventually they are going to find out. It’s better to let them know of the situation according to their age and in terms they can understand. This article from Chesapeake Family has more to say on the subject, “According to the ACS, ‘Children who are included in this experience from the beginning with truthful information in small doses will have less anxiety than children whose parents are more evasive,” says the article on the subject of a parent’s vital communication.
At A-1 Home Care, we can help your family deal with the difficulties associated with Cancer. Caregiving, money, and time management will have a large impact on your family, and you’ve got to decide whether you can handle caregiving within the family, or if hiring outside help would be beneficial and worth the investment for your family. If outside help seems like a good idea, we can provide experienced and compassionate caregivers for in-home Cancer Care. Our caregivers have experience caring for individuals who have just gone through chemotherapy or radiation therapy and are familiar with side effects commonly experienced, such as the effects of fatigue, anxiety, hair loss, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, constipation, and other problems.
A-1 Home Care has caregivers available immediately for 24 hour live-in care or hourly part-time care. We specialize in Senior Care services such as Cancer Care, Alzheimer’s Care, Parkinson’s Care, Arthritis Care, and Hospice Care in the communities of La Mirada, Santa Fe Springs, Norwalk, La Habra, Los Alamitos, Yorba Linda, Villa Park, Downey, Whittier, and other cities in Orange County and Los Angeles County.
