Resourcing: An approach used by foreign-born parents struggling on in childhood cancer care
2016, European Journal of Oncology NursingCitation Excerpt :The experience has been described as “getting through all the rough spots” (Woodgate and Degner, 2003, p.108) and “a broken life world” (Bjork et al., 2005, p.269). According to the literature parents are “trying to cope” (Enskar et al., 1997, p.160) with a complex life situation and a long period of psychosocial distress and uncertainty (Boman et al., 2003; Norberg et al., 2005). The first year after diagnosis parents of children with cancer report a significantly higher level of distress than parents of healthy children (Pai et al., 2007).
