Originally published in 1974, and written by paediatricians, social
workers, nurses and a parent who cared for her dying child, this
book is concerned with pinpointing the problems which exist for
parents and those involved in the care of sick children, both in
terms of accepting the facts of a child's illness, and in loving
supporting and giving them maximum enjoyment within the limits of
their condition. The fears and anxieties of such children are
examined - separation from parents, fear of pain, an increasing
sense of difference and in some cases a very real appreciation of
their situation. All these limit the child's happiness, and ways of
counteracting them are suggested. Similarly the distress of parents
and of medical advisers is discussed.
