It can be extremely stressful when your child is suffering from an illness, chronic condition or has to go to the hospital. Parent support networks can be incredibly helpful and therapeutic. You can share concerns, common experiences and information with other parents going through the same thing. If you wish to talk with other parents who are raising a child with hemophilia, ask any member of the Hemophilia and Thrombosis Center team for referrals to parent support groups throughout the Bay Area.
