Episode Synopsis

When a family member, friend or loved one says, "I have cancer," it’s hard to know what to say. You may feel emotional – of course you are shocked and sad. But so is your loved one. Oncology-certified social worker Eileen Matteo, LISW-S, OSW-C, describes the things you can do and say (and not say) to be supportive in this very difficult and emotionally charged situation.
