	<p>For most people, receiving a diagnosis of cancer is one of the most frightening, disorienting, and challenging experiences that they will ever have.&nbsp; Along with the diagnosis comes an avalanche of questions that must be answered, emotions that must be dealt with, and logistical considerations that must be worked out. Unfortunately, however, most patients and family members find themselves catapulted into this overwhelmingly stressful and fearful experience without any prior knowledge or understanding about what is really happening to them - or what they should do to best help themselves or their loved one. Furthermore, the explosion of information that is now available about cancer and various treatment options often makes this experience even more distressing and confusing for patients and family members alike.</p>
<p>This article is the first in a series designed to provide a basic overview of what cancer is, and what to do when you or a loved one has cancer. It is intended to serve as a guide to help patients and family members navigate their way through this most extraordinary experience.</p>
<p>Let's begin at the beginning. "I've just been diagnosed with cancer. What should I do?" Remarkable as it may seem, it is a question that one three people alive in America today will ask at some point in their lives, and which nearly one and a half million people will ask in just this coming year alone. There are many aspects and dimensions to the answer to this question. Here are a few important highlights that can help you begin:</p>
<blockquote><a href="body.cfm?id=397">1. Recognize that fear is natural, and know that it can be overcome.</a>
<p><strong><a href="body.cfm?id=396">2. Ask yourself this question: Do I have trust and have confidence in my doctor?</a></strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="body.cfm?id=395">3. Recognize that your physical body needs love and attention, but so do your mind, heart and spirit.</a></strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="body.cfm?id=393">4. Recognize that life is a journey, and so is dealing with cancer.</a></strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="body.cfm?id=394">5. Don't be afraid to ask for help.</a></strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="body.cfm?id=398">6. How to find these services.</a></strong>&nbsp;</p>
