The only part of the past one can retain is the memories it takes with it, and even then the most precious moments of one’s life can be…

Since I can remember, I have wanted to be a nurse. Not just a regular Register Nurse but a Pediatrician Oncology Nurse. That is why I have decided to write this paper on how children with cancer use religion in their lives at such a critical time, how their parents use spirituality to cope, and spiritual distress.
