Rafael Wainer: Fighting to Care, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Fighting to Care examines the experiences of Argentine children with blood cancer at a pediatric hospital emphasizing children's agency despite the normalization of painful treatments that transform children into "permeable bodies." The book demonstrates how children, caregivers, and healthcare professionals negotiate agency and humor while navigating invasive therapeutic paths. It highlights collective caregiving in the context of urgent and biosocial care. It explores how bodily and emotional experiences are shaped within a strained public healthcare system marked by inequality and crisis. "."
