   011. Disenfranchised Grief Among Mothers of Chronically Ill Adolescents

   In this episode, Pediatric Nursing Editor Dr. Tedra Smith, talks with 2025 Donna Wong Award winner Briana Keller, a PhD Candidate at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, about her article published in the November/December 2025 issue titled “’I Can’t Complain Because at Least I Still Have My Child’: Disenfranchised Greif Among Mothers of Chronically Ill Adolescents.” Ms. Keller discusses the intangible and often overlooked loss parents of chronically ill children may experience, and emphasizes the importance of recognizing and supporting that grief. Initially set out to explore ambiguous loss amongst chronically ill adolescents, she explains how interviews with caregivers unearthed a less discussed hurt – disenfranchised grief. She shares her experiences in studying this topic, including one particular interview in which a mother felt she could not complain because at least she still had her child. Ms. Keller continues on to discuss how health care providers can support both parent and child from diagnosis and beyond. Briana P. Keller, Med, is a PhD Candidate at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, AL. Tedra Smith, DNP, CRNP, CPNP-PC, CNE, CHSE, is a Professor and the Interim Assistant Dean for Graduate Clinical Education at The University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Nursing and serves as the Editor of Pediatric Nursing. © Jannetti Publications, Inc.

   010. Transforming NICU Care: How Infant-Driven Feeding Improves Outcomes

   In this episode, Pediatric Nursing Journal Editor Dr. Tedra Smith, talks with Renee Bloom, a NICU RN Unit Supervisor at Inova Fair Oaks Hospital in Fairfax, Virginia, about her article published in the May/June 2025 issue titled “The Impact of Infant-Driven Feeding on Breastfeeding and Premature Infant Outcomes.” Ms. Bloom shares how her team implemented infant-driven feeding, the patient story that inspired the study, and the improvements seen in earlier discharges, stronger breastfeeding outcomes, and more positive feeding experiences. Bloom also explains how shifting to a cue-based approach empowers families and supports healthier long-term outcomes for premature infants.
