Abstract
Summary: Together, the manuscripts provide a template for understanding the range of possible outcomes in long-term survivorship of childhood cancer and the processes that lead to psychosocial “thriving.” This body of work suggests that processes of coping, healing, and development are intimately related and that meaning making is crucial to long-term psychosocial well-being. This work suggests that, in the aftermath of a trauma such as childhood cancer, many outcomes are possible, including thriving.
