Drawing on Jenny Altschuler's considerable experience of inpatient and outpatient work, Working with Chronic Illness shows how family therapy techniques can be used by professionals working within a range of contexts, including schools, inpatient and outpatient settings. Clinical cases illustrate the profound dilemmas faced by families and professionals and offer specific guidelines to this work. A range of questions and exercises are provided to help the reader extend their own understanding of the issues confronting families. Chapters by Barbara Dale and John Byng-Hall explore the implications of chronic illness for parenting and reflect on families' experience of the process of their medical care." "Working with Chronic Illness recognises both the losses and gains experienced by individuals and families as they seek to make sense of the impact of illness on their lives. It raises questions about the imbalance created in families when illness strikes a member, challenging key beliefs about vulnerability, loss, caring and professional distance."--
