Abstract
The aim of the research was to find out what kind of inner methods assisted during the crisis of cancer and what sort of external support was needed. The article answers to two questions: Firstly, which kind of inner designs created a positive adjustment to cancer and, secondly, what kind of external support was needed to gain a positive adaptation to the changed life situation? This research utilises a narrative method for analysing two separate data. The first one consists of 13 letters and 7 interviews. The supplementary second data comprises 13 narrative interviews with young adults suffering from cancer.
