Originally published in 1990 this second revised edition shows how to help a family struggle through one of their member's terminal illness and death, offering clinical examples and interventions. The book shows how families change the way in which they function and gives examples of factors that will influence how they cope.
A down-to-earth and highly practical guide, this is the first book to explain and illustrate the relationship between family systems, illness, and loss. This updated paperback edition includes theoretical information along with specific suggestions for developing the important skills needed to manage psychosocial symptoms in the patient and family, both during illness and after death. The author explains how to understand the dynamics of the family as an interactive, intradepAndent system. He also explains how to help families define and facilitate the tasks they must take to adjust to illness and loss.
