  2. FACET - European Journal of Cancer Care July 2004 After treatment – who cares? (continued) ‘I just wanted everything to get back to how it had been before the cancer. Going back to work restored a sense of “normality”, but I didn’t give myself the chance to rest, recuperate and psychologically adjust to the shock and the trauma. I ended up getting anxious and depressed, and I’m sure it delayed my full recovery.’ Lucy (in Van der Molen, 2003, pg 102) Slide Two *Click on “View”; “Notes Page” for explanatory notes slides available at: www.blackwellpublishing.com/journals/ecc
