Glimpses of hope: what children with cancer teach us about life and overcoming life and coping
Entering a hospital is a transformative experience, especially for children, who face not only health, but also emotional and educational challenges. In this context, a valuable opportunity arises for hospital pedagogy to act as a bridge between illness and learning, helping children in resuming their dreams and educational processes. This pedagogical experience was particularly significant because it demonstrated how learning can overcome any obstacle, providing children with tools to reimagine their future and find strength in the midst of adversity. Connecting knowledge with emotions is key for these young individuals to not only cope with their situation but also to maintain the hope and resilience needed to continue their lives.
