Current Issue

Rare Conditions and Diseases (February 2024)

In this issue, we are focusing on rare conditions and diseases that are likely to be confronted in pediatric palliative and hospice care. As we delved into this subject area, we learned there is a very broad category of challenges that can confront children, families, volunteers, and professionals who work in pediatric palliative and hospice care. We do not, therefore, expect a single issue of our e-Journal will cover every possible type of rare conditions and diseases. However, it is our hope to guide readers in many important ways of addressing these issues.
