The Institute of Medicine defines pediatric palliative care to include the spiritual needs of a family, with a broad view of spirituality as the search for meaning and purpose in life and in death. The real-life stories in this module offer specific, complicated case studies around issues of spirituality during a pediatric medical crisis. Many families rely on spiritual resources in times of health-related crises, especially at end-of-life. Yet the majority of medical caregivers do not address issues of spirituality with their patients, with many feeling ill-equipped to do so. This module offers the insight of several veteran pediatric oncologists around spirituality issues.

School still matters to a child or adolescent facing cancer. With childhood cancer survival rates now nearing 80%, most young cancer patients will find themselves going back to school. But will they be accepted and understood by their peers? Academically, will they be months behind? Will the effects of their treatment interfere with their learning abilities? This module addresses all these questions, and offers education professionals intimate, real-life case studies of five kids of differing age, race and genders who have walked this road. In short, compelling documentary stories, we meet four childhood cancer patients and survivors, and one sibling of a patient, and follow their struggles, in some cases years beyond their actual cancer treatment.

The voices in this book belong to five families who invited award-winning filmmakers Julia Reichert and Steven Bognar into their lives for six years as their children were being treated in the pediatric oncology unit at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center. The stunning, heartbreaking and heartwarming footage they captured became the documentary A LION IN THE HOUSE, which debuted to fantastic acclaim at the Sundance Film Festival and went on to be viewed by millions over PBS. In this book, those families reflect on what they lived through as their children endured the painful treatments that represent the very best that the scientific world has to offer. Patents, siblings and other relatives revealed to veteran journalist Margaret A. McGurk their innermost thoughts, their emotional secrets and the tricks and techniques that helped them to survive, even when their journey ended with the ultimate loss.

Created with SuperSibs!, this module tells the stories of several siblings as their brother or sister fights cancer. As we watch each sibling's story unfold, we witness how it feels to be pushed aside, left in the dark, and forbidden to speak about the stress and anxiety they face every day. Depression, anger, and a desire to rebel are a few of the experiences common to these 'shadow survivors.'
