Receiving a life-limiting diagnosis is often a shock for those affected as well as for their relatives, which changes the entire life situation of the family. New perspectives often arise, as well as feelings of worry, sadness and powerlessness. Caregiving is often an extreme physical challenge, but above all a psychological one.
