    Abstract:
    Part 2 of this discussion provides a detailed examination of specific issues associated with the fathers' personal involvement in their child's hospital treatment for paediatric acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). In particular, fathers testify to the difficulties they encounter when involved with the restraining of their child-patient for treatment. Issues raised by parents during this study have been addressed by recommendations detailing factors which need to be considered when providing holistic care for the family and the child with leukaemia.
