The aim of this nationwide survey was to explore, based on an open-ended question, cancer-bereaved siblings' advice to peers with a brother or sister with cancer. Half of the advice related to being with the ill sibling and cherishing the time together. Other advice related to the value of communicating about the situation, letting go of guilt, and living life as usual. The results highlight the importance of health care professionals, family, and others facilitating for siblings to spend time together and communicate openly.
本项全国性调查旨在通过开放式问题，探究癌症患者的同胞手足向其患病的兄弟姐妹提供的建议。这些建议有一半涉及陪伴患病的手足，珍惜共处的时光。其他建议涉及交流病情、放下负罪感、正常生活的重要性。研究结果强调了医护人员、家庭以及其他人员的重要性，他们可以帮助患者的同胞手足有更多的时间相处并进行坦诚的沟通。
