Summary

The purpose of this study is to develop, refine, and pilot test a text-messaging micro-intervention focused on improving communication skills for couples in which one partner has gastrointestinal cancer.

For the pilot testing portion of the study, couples will be randomized (1:1) to receive the text-messaging communication micro-intervention or to a waitlist control group. All couples will be asked to complete questionnaires before randomization and 30 days post-randomization. Couples in the waitlist control group will be offered the text-messaging micro-intervention after completing the second set of surveys (30-days post-randomization).
