journal contribution
posted on 2004-03-01, 00:00 authored by M Vickers, Melissa ParrisMelissa Parris, J BaileyThis paper reports the initial findings of an exploratory, qualitative study of the life and work of people who are working full-time and also caring for a child with chronic illness. The demands of such a lifestyle are significant. Respondents - all women - often reported 'doing-it-all' while constantly being frustrated and challenged in their mothering role.
