A Parent's Guide to Solid Tumour Cancers
'Childhood Cancer' features detailed and precise medical information about childhood cancers, including neuroblastoma, Wilms tumour, liver tumours, soft tissue sarcomas, and bone sarcomas. In addition, it offers day-to-day practical advice on how to cope with medical procedures; hospitalisation; family, friends and school; finances; the communication of feelings; and the difficult issues of death and bereavement. Woven among the medical details and the practical advice are the voices of parents and children who have lived with cancer and its treatments.
A book aimed specifically at parents, this book explains medical facts simply and thoroughly, while providing them with the tools and information necessary to ease their daily lives and be strong advocates for their children.
