Cancer imposes severe financial burdens on families, including high out-of-pocket medical costs, income loss from reduced work, and additional expenses like travel and childcare. Many face long-term financial instability, often termed "financial toxicity," which exacerbates emotional stress. Low-income families are disproportionately affected, sometimes leading to skipped treatments or unmet basic needs.
