This book examines children and young people's attempts to
participate in conversations about their own treatment throughout
uncertain cancer trajectories, including the events leading up to
diagnosis, treatment, remission, relapse, and cure or death.
Clearly and compellingly written, Clemente relies on a new
multi-layered method to identify six cancer communication
strategies Illustrates that communication is central to how
children, parents, and healthcare professionals constitute,
influence, and make sense of the social worlds they inhabit--or
that they want to inhabit Provides ethnographic case studies of
childhood cancer patients in Spain, using children's own words
Examines the challenges of how to talk to and how to encourage
patients' involvement in reatment discussions In his critique of
the "telling" versus "not telling" debates, Clemente argues that
communication should be adjusted to the children's own needs, and
that children's own questions can indicate how much or little they
want to be involved Uncertain Futures is the winner of the 15th
Annual Modest Reixach Prize.
