Popis: This visual essay presents a series of photos which were the result of a more wide-ranging project conducted by the Romanian Hospice Casa Speranței in Brasov. The photos were taken by adult cancer patients of the Hospice as a way for them to illustrate their own visualisation of their experience of this disease. The patients were asked to add a descriptive text to the images; the photos were then grouped into categories and brought together to form a narrative. Photovoice was used to elicit a personal perspective on the patient’s experience of what it means to live with an incurable disease such as cancer.
