| Anything for My Child : Making Impossible Decisions for Medically Complex Children Every parent wants the same thing: for their child to enjoy a long and fulfilling life. But what happens when things don't go according to plan? What happens when parents have to become advocates for their child's healthcare needs? Who decides what is in a child's 'best interests'? Stephanie is a Communications Professional and Writer. She draws from her own lived experience of the loss of her child together with a professional interest in the fields of palliative care and medical bioethics to bring a perspective "from the other side of the hospital bed". She is regularly invited to speak at high profile events including the RCPCH Annual Conference and the Great Ormond Street Bioethics Conference. She is regularly approached for comment by major media outlets as an expert on conflict prevention in paediatric care, bereavement and end of life care. |
