This study aimed to understand the intrapersonal and interpersonal relationships of teenage cancer patients. Researchers interviewed adolescent cancer patients aged 10-19 receiving treatment at a hospital in the Philippines. Questions covered self-image, daily living, relationships with family/peers, and society's judgments. Analysis of 20 interviews found that despite their situations, patients had strong personalities. They were often laid-back about others' opinions. While diagnosed with cancer, it was not their biggest struggle according to the analysis. The study provided insight into how cancer diagnosis affects teenage relationships and identity development.
