title: Cancer rehabilitation: a consumer perspective.
abstract: Twenty years ago, quantity took precedence over quality of life as a matter of necessity. The idea of incorporating rehabilitation programs into the oncology arena was essentially a foreign concept. Quality-of-life issues are receiving more attention because of the survivorship movement; however, the ramifications for surviving the cancer experience in our current culture extend far beyond the medical diagnosis and treatment.
