"The death of a child," writes Myra Bluebond-Langner, "poignantly
underlines the impact of social and cultural factors on the way
that we die and the way that we permit others to die." In a moving
drama constructed from her observations of leukemic children, aged
three to nine, in a hospital ward, she shows how the children come
to know they are dying, how and why they attempt to conceal this
knowledge from their parents and the medical staff, and how these
adults in turn try to conceal from the children their awareness of
the child's impending death.
