Child Life professionals play a critical role in the lives of Pediatric Cancer patients as Bailey Kasten and Kelly Wagner will discuss in today's podcast.

They also need to be prepared to deal with the most difficult issues of bereavement should they be needed, as they are in close and direct contact with all family members during their child's hospital stay
