Survivors claim that being ‘ghosted by cancer’ can be more agonizing than treatment.


Chelsey Gomez’s life took a turn when she was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 28. As she battled the disease, she found herself abandoned by her closest friends and family members, a phenomenon known as “cancer ghosting.” This social isolation and loss of support had a profound impact on her mental well-being, leaving her feeling alone and unworthy.

As a young cancer patient, Gomez struggled to come to terms with the fact that those she loved did not stand by her during her darkest hour. This experience is not unique to her, as many other cancer survivors have faced similar situations of abandonment by those they expected to support them.

Despite the hurt caused by cancer ghosting, Gomez found solace in the support of other individuals who stepped up to help her through her battle with cancer. She emphasizes the importance of simple messages of support and practical assistance in overcoming the feelings of isolation and worthlessness that often accompany a cancer diagnosis.

As the number of cancer survivors continues to grow, the issue of social isolation post-treatment is becoming more prominent. It is crucial for friends and family members to maintain connections with survivors, offering ongoing support and understanding even after the immediate threat of cancer has passed.

Gomez, now 34 and cancer-free, highlights the importance of connection as an antidote to the lingering effects of cancer ghosting. She has found healing through her art, using ghosts as a metaphor for the friends she lost to cancer and her journey as a survivor. Despite the pain of being ghosted, she has learned to let go of those who could not support her during her time of need.
