Just as it is impossible to separate the child from his or her illness, it is similarly impossible to separate the effects of that illness from the rest of the family. To support this philosophy of care, our Bereavement and Child Life Programs are filled with opportunities for families to restore the rituals of family life. Through them, we seek to create an environment where we can honor each family’s culture and beliefs, while helping them to understand: how to bear the extreme burdens illness places upon us, and when necessary, how to love and remember those we have lost.
