Breast cancer and the harsh treatment for the disease affects not only patients but their caretakers. While caring for a breast cancer patient, caregivers face physical and mental challenges while continuing to assume significant caretaking responsibilities. Caregiving often becomes a full$-$time responsibility that can last for many years. In the instance of a person with breast cancer, their partner is often the primary caregiver. A majority of caregivers report that caregiving is a burden physically, psychologically, economically, socially, and personally $($LeSeure & Chongkham$-$ang, $2015).$ The problem is caregivers have a demanding and exhausting caretaking schedule, resulting in failure to practice good self$-$care $($LeSeure & Chongkham$-$ang, $2015).$ According to Family Caregiving Alliance $(2018)$ many caregivers are aware their own good health means providing better care for the patient, but often feel guilty when choosing themselves first. As a result of failing to take care of themselves, caregivers often become psychologically and physically ill, reducing the ability to care for their ailing partner $($LeSeure & Chongkham$-$ang, $2015).$ Gaining caregivers' perspectives on barriers preventing good self$-$care could lead to the development of interventions and resources for caregivers to begin practicing good self$-$care.
