乳癌已經是全世界婦女常見的疾病之一，癌症的確診引起的唯一反應就是害怕，罹癌婦女存活者如何從罹癌的歷程中，尋找生命的意義與價值，是本文的目的。本研究針對6位乳癌的婦女進行訪談，訪談時間約1至2小時，訪談內容包括：接觸病友團體的原因、經驗過程、病友們印象深刻的事情，從健康到生病之生理及心理方面的轉變，對自我健康的態度、與親人關係的變化、團體互動的情形等，透過這些生活經驗探討乳癌婦女罹癌前後的生命歷程與態度。錄音資料先謄寫為逐字稿，然後進行編輯式分析，結果從健康一夕之間改變、尋求醫療與康復，到生命的省思，繼而如實接受，且積極的維護健康，其間的心路歷程帶給健康人許多啟發，也開啟病友的覺醒，開始重視自己的需求，跳脫家庭的框架，直接去看、去體驗、去感覺生命，而直接進入生命的意義。如此坦然面對自己的生命就是乳癌帶給病友的生命禮物。

Breast cancer is already a worldwide disease for women. The only response is fear for the cancer diagnosis. The purpose of this article is exploring the process of how to find the meaning and value of life for breast cancer survivors. In this study, 6 women with breast cancer were interviewed for 1-2 hours. The content includes: contact with patient groups, illness process, impressive subjects or objects, the transition of physical and psychological aspects from health to sick, the attitudes to health, relationship with loved family, group interaction, etc. Through these life experiences, the women’s life history and attitudes were explored. The recordings were verbatim transcribed, and then analyzed using editing analysis style. The results were presented as a healthy change overnight, seeking medical care and rehabilitation, to reflect on life, and then faithfully accepted and actively maintain health. The process not only brings inspiration to healthy people, but also awakening the patients. Breast cancer women began to pay attention to their own needs, escape the restriction from family, directly to see, to experience, to feel life, and truthfully access to the meaning of life. So comfortable facing her own life is the gift of life brought by breast cancer.
