Long-term late effects of childhood cancer treatment have been gaining researchers’ attention recently. Childhood cancer survivors (CCS) may suffer from late effects of the treatment even after a long time after their cure. To understand the way childhood cancer experience affects current life of CCS and how they think about it is very important to help improve the quality of their life. This study of 88 adolescents found that the impact of childhood cancer on CCS’s daily life is related to their current age. The younger the age, the less impact of the illness on current daily life. No differences were found within gender. In terms of self-identity, none of the survivors felt like a victim. With respect to gender, almost half of boys felt like "someone who was sick" and approximately one third of girls felt like a ‘winner’.
