Hoping to get grant to deal with clients who are mentally ill and have children. If not do a research at Children's hospital where there is a program going on right now. The program deals with helping the children deal with operations and other processes they have to go through.

I have started a research project attempting to provide dying pediatric patients a way to deal with their impending death.  There is very little research available about how to assist people that are dying, especially a child.  This study utilizes interviews and a video camera.  The goal is to find a means for children to talk about the dying process as well as to leave a legacy.  I would like to get other hospitals in the US involved in this study.  Currently the study has only been implemented at Arkansas Children's Hospital and I would like to get other pediatric centers involved.  Having more institutions involved will increase access to data.  I need financial assistance to be able to cover costs of travel and training to these other institutions that wish to participate in this study.
