| 520 | _aEach year more than 6,000 children and teens in the United States are diagnosed with a solid tumor (e.g., kidney tumour, liver tumour, neuroblastoma, retinoblastoma, or sarcoma). The illnesses and their treatments can have devastating effects on family, friends, schoolmates, and the larger community. This book contains information families need during this difficult time. It includes descriptions of the newest treatments, such as computer-assisted surgery, tandem stem cell transplants, and targeted therapies as well as practical advice about how to cope with diagnosis, medical procedures, hospitalisation, school, and finances. This book charts the cancer experience journey, from diagnosis through to all outcomes (survival, relapse, death). Woven throughout the text are true stories from more than 100 children with cancer, their siblings, and their parents. The book was written primarily for an American readership so some of the specifics in the chapter on insurance, record-keeping and financial assistance may be of limited value to families living in Ireland; however, it can be broadly helpful for considering the impact of these aspects of childhood cancer on families. This book includes details of resource organisations, books, websites, and support groups catering for all age-groups, as well as an index. | ||
