Parents' aid for children suffering from cancer in Leipzig

Advise, support and help for affected families

With its ambulant psycho-social follow-up care, the parents' aid for children suffering from cancer in Leipzig supports young patients, their brothers and sisters and the whole family on their way in a changed daily life. After a often long time of heavy sickness and intensive therapy of the child, the way often is not easy to make and new questions or problems arise. Here exists a psycho-social care offer for all affected people: the ambulant psycho-social follow-up care as a helpdesk by the parents' aid in Leipzig. A high number of care possibilities are offered and, if needed, other help close to the home is communicated. During and after the therapy as an inpatient, families get the possibility to communicate where support is needed. Frequent subjects are for example the reintegration of the children in kindergartens and schools, the disease handling of the parents in psychological sessions (individually or in the family) and the ambulant arts and music therapy, but also the support for parents whose children cannot be cured, for example through terminal care and grief care. For this important work, the parents' aid for children suffering from cancer in Leipzig needs an important financial aid for hiring a children's psychologist in the spring of 2018, to enlarge the existing follow-up care concept and to offer it for a long term. Currently, 9,650 euros are missing.
