A Difficult Journey for any Family
When a child is diagnosed with a serious or life-threatening condition, everything changes. Parents not only have to face the difficult realization that their child is seriously ill and may be suffering, but they may also feel overwhelmed by their lack of understanding of the complex and ongoing medical care that may be required, and the impact that it will have on their lives as they know it. Additionally, the need for robust family support in palliative care becomes paramount, as navigating the emotional, psychological, and logistical challenges can be incredibly taxing for families.
Each family is unique, and everyone’s journey will be different. PatchSA recognizes the critical role of comprehensive family support in palliative care. We strive to ease this difficult journey through the sharing of information, and the stories and experiences of other families.
