Atash Khayyer, a movie actor who died at the age of 34

Cancer can bring out a range of emotions: anger, sadness, uncertainty, fear, guilt, frustration, confusion, loneliness, isolation, resentment, grief, and more. The person you know well might be experiencing moods they’re never felt before—and they may feel many of these emotions more often than ever. Don’t take it personally when someone is angry, upset, or doesn’t want to talk. Respect a person’s feelings and their willingness to talk about their cancer.
