Background: Diagnosing breast cancer poses a challenge for all affected women, triggering varying levels of emotional distress. Despite medical advancements, breast cancer remains a significant source of stress that can persist long after diagnosis.
Methods: This qualitative study employed a content analysis approach, with 13 breast cancer patients from Khatam Al Anbia Cancer Center in Jahrom city as participants. Sampling was purposeful and continued until data saturation was achieved. Semi-structured interviews were used for data collection, which were analyzed using MAXQDA 2020 software (VERBI).
Results: The average age of participants was 44.30 years, with 12 married and 1 single. Their average illness duration was 2.68 years. Initial analysis yielded 252 semantic units, which were condensed into 85 primary codes, 18 sub-categories, 9 sub-categories, and 3 categories (spirituality definition, barriers to acquiring spirituality, and solutions for providing spirituality).
Conclusion: The study's findings indicate that spiritual experiences can help breast cancer patients cope with the disease and its mental, psychological, and physical complications, ultimately improving their condition.
