Les expériences des jeunes femmes diagnostiquées avec un cancer du sein : la nécessité d’offrir une information et un soutien adaptés
Abstract
Ces travaux ont été entrepris afin de donner des assises pour déterminer le type de soutien que les jeunes femmes atteintes de cancer du sein pourraient trouver utile. Des entrevues détaillées ont été menées auprès de 28 femmes diagnostiquées d’un cancer du sein avant l’âge de 45 ans, au sujet de leurs expériences relatives au cancer du sein. Les participantes avaient entre 28 et 42 ans au moment du diagnostic. Trois thèmes principaux se sont dégagés de l’analyse—« tout repose sur une action immédiate », « tout est décalé », et « le cancer a envahi toute ma vie ». Ces femmes ont partagé des perspectives similaires à celles de femmes plus âgées mais faisaient également état de perspectives propres au fait d’être jeune, d’avoir de jeunes enfants et une vie professionnelle chargée. Beaucoup d’entre elles ont trouvé que les services ne correspondaient pas à leurs exigences et elles préconisaient vivement la création de services adaptés à leurs besoins particuliers.
