adequate support from their families are 27 people (60%) , and those who got
good support as many as 18 people (40%) . The analysis suggested that the
majority of respondents received family support in the sufficient category. This

activities without a lot of help, sufficient income so that financial assistance from
families was not really needed, secondary education that made patients able to dig
up their own information without much help from the family. | en_US |
