Comme sur le fil d'un funambule… c'est ainsi que l'auteur, psychologue pendant 20 ans dans un service de néonatalogie, décrit le quotidien qui fut le sien, face aux miracles et aux drames de nourrissons prématurés ou victimes de maladies graves – et dans la proximité bouleversante de leurs parents. Ces histoires ont la beauté des contes, celle qui convient aux épreuves de l'existence. Quelle qu'en soit la fin, elles racontent toujours la victoire de l'amour et de l'intelligence sur le désespoir. On sait désormais que le bébé est une personne : quand la sienne ne tient plus qu'à un fil, il faut savoir lui murmurer à l'oreille que la vie est belle.

What is meant by 'spiritual care'? How can we assess and communicate the needs of a child in hospital effectively if we each have conflicting interpretations of 'spiritual'? This book proposes that we use a language of 'connectedness', which can fully express a child's feelings about, and understanding of, their hospital experience, rather than relying on religious or medical language. In doing so, assessments can be made purely on information given by the child and their emotional and spiritual needs can be communicated between professionals using a shared professional language, regardless of their own faith, religion or secular outlook. The book fully explains the concept of connectedness and outlines a practical assessment tool that uses play and storytelling to connect with the child and gather information about their hospital experience, their relationships with others while in the hospital setting, their feelings about their current state and their needs. This book will improve communication between medical practitioners, chaplains and other support services, enabling them to provide the best support for children in their care. It will also be of interest to academics in healthcare, theology and psychology.
