This book is the outcome of the struggles faced to families accessing relevant information and coping with the additional problems linked to issues that make life-threatening illness during young adulthood particularly difficult to manage. Heavily based on the use of narrative material written by parents whose young adult children have been diagnosed with cancer, this book addresses issues such as sexuality and fertility, independence, the need for normality, the effect on siblings, the ownership of medical information, financial issues, the impact on the parents' partnership and the emotional consequences of the illness.
