Shelter from the Storm: Caring for a Child with a Life-Threatening Condition (Books)
Nothing is more excruciating or heartwrenching for parents than caring for a child who is critically ill and unlikely to survive. A recent Harvard University study on pediatric end-of-life care has shown that the medical community is failing such children and their families. Indeed, in their effort to be ever-hopeful and cure-oriented in the face of a child's terminal illness, they neglect to advise parents on the basics of emotional support for all family members, pediatric pain mediation, and the need for making plans and worst-case preparations.
Based on the National Advanced Illness Coordinated Care program and the stories and advice gleaned from co-author Joanne Hilden's years of work as a pediatric oncologist, SHELTER FROM THE STORM fills this advice-and-caregiving void. A compassionate road map to what the family may have to face, what they may be asked to decide, and how they might want to involve their child in the decision-making, SHELTER FROM THE STORM will help parents and caregivers make informed, loving, and protective choices on behalf of their children in the most trying of times.
