BACKGROUND: When a child is diagnosed with
cancer, parents are confronted with the potential
fatality of the disease. This traumatic stressor is
often followed by additional stressful events during
treatment. However, once their child is cured many
parents also reported experiencing psychological
growth. We aimed to describe post-traumatic
growth (PTG) in parents of adolescent childhood
cancer survivors, compare it with PTG in existing
samples experiencing stressful events, and describe
characteristics of parents who report PTG.
