Purpose
To explore how children understand their mother's diagnosis of and treatment for breast cancer. Method Interpretive description was adopted as the methodology in this study. Eight children aged 818 years old, whose mother has been diagnosed with non-terminal breast cancer, were interviewed individually and six of them drew a picture to express their understanding of maternal breast cancer. Results Four themes were identified in this study: the cancer word is scary children's understanding of cancer; scars and tubes children's understanding of surgery; hair loss children's understanding of chemotherapy, and I can't explain it children's understanding of other treatments. Children's understanding of maternal breast cancer and its treatment was relatively realistic, although sometimes inaccurate. Conclusions Individual evaluation and appropriate explanation is significant to further children's understanding of their mother's illness. Future studies with larger sample size are needed to explore the understanding for children of different ages, in order to provide specific help for these children. |
