Abstract
Having read the article, "Group Discussion With the Parents of Leukemic Children," by Heffron et al. (Pediatrics, 52:831, 1973) with great interest, I would like to suggest that similar group meetings are being held at other centers. I draw to your attention the excellent article, "Helping the Parents of Children With Leukemia," by Knapp and Hansen, Children's Hospital of Los Angeles (Social Work, Vol. 18, No. 4, July 1973).
Dr. Brian McSheffrey and I, through our contact with leukemic children in the Pediatric Department of University Hospital, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, have been experimenting with mutual support group for parents of leukemic children since November 1971.
