Background In 2012, around 14.1 million new cases of cancer were diagnosed worldwide and another 8.2 million died from cancer. It is estimated that by 2030, these figures could increase to an alarming 26.4 million new cases and 17 million cancer-related deaths. Nearly 56% of the new cancer cases and 64% of the cancer-related deaths occur in low and middle income countries (LMICs), where there is a lack of universally available, affordable, and sustainable health care. Head and neck cancers are among the most common cancers worldwide with nearly 600,000 new cases and 300,000 deaths occurring globally every year. Brain tumors are responsible for approximately 2% of all cancer deaths. The overall incidence of brain tumors is 4-5/100,000 population per year. Cancer's diagnosis considerably affects patient's emotional and psychological status. The cancer survivors encounter various challenges, as they battle to maintain an optimistic outlook towards life. Resilience enables individuals to thrive in the face of adversity and it is believed that resilience plays an important role in a cancer survivor's life to cope with their illness, to overcome depression and improve their Health- related quality of life (HR-QoL). HR-QoL and its assessment have become increasingly important in health care, especially in the field of chronic diseases recently. HR-QoL generally refers to patients' perceptions of the effects of disease on life. It has two fundamental premises; first, a multi-dimensional concept incorporating physical, psychological, social, and emotional functional domains. Second is subjective and must be self-reported, according to the patients' own experiences. Conventionally, the endpoints of medical care for cancer patients had focused on survival rate, local control rate, or complication rate. However, assessments have lacked knowledge and understanding of the patient's mental and emotional wellbeing. Recently, resilience in the course of cancer treatment has been given immense attention. Several studies from different parts of the world on cancer survivors suggest that resilience is a protective factor for distress. A study reported resilience was likely to mediate the adverse relationship between cancer symptoms, distress and QoL for cancer survivors, indicating, resilience might play an essential role in protecting against adverse effects of cancer symptoms on QoL. It is identified, that resilience as an important changeable path can improve hope and QoL. Therefore, it is important that before initiating treatment, patients should be referred to a mental health professional for psychological/psychiatric evaluation. Resilience and QoL is a critical component during diagnosis, treatment, survivorship, and at the end of life. Hence, these are important traits for promoting positive psycho-social well-being. Resilience and QoL changes over time and may be modifiable towards increased well-being. To the best of the investigators knowledge, this will be the first in-depth study to evaluate resilience and quality of life among head \& neck cancer and brain tumor patients in Pakistan. Moreover, through this study the investigators will be able to identify problems faced by such patients in their setting, enabling the investigators in the future to design interventions to improve resilience and QoL.
