Description

"This tape includes commentary by clinical psychologist H. Elizabeth King, Ph.D. plus interviews with several mothers who have survived breast cancer, and their children. Dr King, herself a breast cancer survivor and mother, offers an honest and empathetic approach to the challenges of families sharing the diagnosis as well as handling the treatment and helping children cope. The interviews which provide insight from the children's perspective are valuable for the tape's usage as a coping tool for children. Also included is the comic book, "Kemo Shark", explains chemotherapy on a child's level. This tape is appropriate for parents, school-age children, educators, and health professionals who serve or who are preparing to serve oncology patients and their families." -Child Development Media, Inc.
