Abstract
This chapter is structured around a question-and-answer session between a young lady who spent time in hospital as a teenager and her youth support coordinator, examining the perspective of both sides … the patient (Sarah), and a member of staff (Nicky). Sarah shares her experience and journey through her treatment and what it was like as a teenager undergoing chemotherapy and an amputation. While Nicky explores her role as a youth support coordinator and how support is put in place for young people, because sometimes young people are just too scared to ask or do not know how.
