Abstract
Bu çalışmada çocuğunun kanser tedavisi nedeniyle İstanbul'a göç etmek zorunda kalan annelerin tedavi süreçlerine dair deneyimlerinin varoluşçu terapi perspektifi ile analizi incelenmiştir. Çalışmada Kanserli Çocuklara Umut Vakfı (KAÇUV) Aile Evi'nde konaklayan Türkiye'nin farklı bölgelerinden gelen, çocuğunun kanser tedavisi devam eden, anadili Türkçe olan toplam sekiz katılımcı ile, yarı yapılandırılmış yüz yüze görüşmeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Görüşmeler tematik analiz yöntemi ile analiz edilmiştir. Görüşmeler tanı süreci, kanser öncesi ve sonrası dört dünya kuramı (fiziksel dünya (umwelt), ilişkisel dünya (mitwelt), kişisel dünya (eigenwelt), tinsel dünya (uberwelt)) ve annelik deneyimi temaları ile değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgulara göre, kanser deneyimi bir sınır durum olarak deneyimlenmekte, kişilerin hayatını kanser öncesi ve sonrası olarak ayrılmasına neden olmaktadır. Katılımcıların kanser sonrası dört dünya kuramı kapsamında değişimler yaşadıkları ve annelik deneyimlerini yeniden gözden geçirdikleri görülmektedir. Mevcut çalışma bulgularının; çocuğu kanser tedavisi gören annelerin yaşadıkları zorluklara dikkat çekmesi, psikoloji alanındaki uygulamalara ve gelecek çalışmalara katkı sunması hedeflenmiştir.
