Families with members dealing with serious health conditions may be confronted with significant challenges posed by treatment regimes, impacts on day-to-day activities, disruption of family roles, the threat of possible death, and a host of psychosocial challenges. This book is about families facing these challenges, uncertain about what to do, how to help, or how the condition will affect their daily life. Providing a coherent discussion of original research that examines communication patterns and processes involved in the day-to-day management of health conditions, this book lays bare the raw emotional experiences of families communicating with one another amid uncertainty and, for some, in the face of death.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Lang Inc., International Academic Publi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47576147001495,"sku":"9781433110696","price":12943.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781433110696.webp?v=1774900007","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/family-communication-connections-and-health-transitions-going-through-this-together-9781433110696","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
