title: Finding the means to carry on. Suicidal feelings in cancer patients.
abstract: People suffering from advanced cancer may question the point of carrying on. It is essential that nurses are sensitive to patients' suicidal feelings at such times, and that a multidisciplinary assessment is made of the patient's key concerns. By bringing such problems into the open, these concerns may begin to be addressed.
