  • Title: A dimensional analysis of the concept: good death of a child with cancer.
    Author: Hendrickson K, McCorkle R.
    Journal: J Pediatr Oncol Nurs; 2008; 25(3):127-38. PubMed ID: 18413698.
    Abstract:
    The death of a child is painful to all witnesses, but the experience varies among individuals, and differing perspectives lead to a variety of definitions for a good death. This analysis is undertaken to clarify the dimensions involved in a good death of a child with cancer and to examine them from 3 perspectives: the dying child, the child's family, and the health care providers.
