Dr Jai Ranjan Ram focusses on the complexities of engaging with adolescents undergoing cancer treatment. It underscores the difficulties in communication, particularly with a boy who refuses treatment due to exams.

The dilemma of sharing information with parents and adolescents, considering their anxiety and outcome uncertainties, is also addressed. The importance of preparing for integration, supporting the family, and the power of single sessions are highlighted.
