Abstract

Hard somatic diseases such as oncology leave traces on peculiarities of a person's ideas about the potential direction of her progress. There is no singular strategy of self-design every person which has the experience of this disease holds on. But it significantly depends on the way in particular that a person assimilates her story before the disease. Four of the most used strategies can be distinguished: ignore of changes, maintenance of personal story heredity, riddance of a value ballast and tuning in cardinal changes. The context, in which an ill person creates his discursive products, and the feedback he receives from his environment both have a great sense. A polyphonic aspect of this connection may afford an opportunity for a patient to see his story and himself in different angles. Also, oncology patients have a few particular tendencies of personal future attitudes that deviate them from a healthy persons' sample. These are the perceptible influence of "here and now" time dimension, an individual singularity of axiological choices concerning the future himself irrespective to the society's approval, vital and personal projects' concentration on narrowing evelopment trends. The character of oncology patients' self-projecting is their interest in somatic practices and psychological stabilization techniques of negative emotional states around which lifelong plans are grouping.
