Abstract

Hydrocephalus is a nerve-cell damage that caused by excess fluid in the brain. This disease could cause problem in the balance, motoric movement, cognitive and child’s emotion during growth. A child with hydrocephalus must acquire a medical treatment appropriately to avoid negative effects of physical and death. Because of that, a child demands a brain surgery. Treatment processes require expensive costs, with a result that could have an effect on the family’s economic condition. In addition, the family also gets rejection from the environment because of the child’s condition that is different from the other children. The condition induces distress symptoms on the family. To reduce distress, the family needs to have an ability to change their cognition and behaviour. The ability is known as coping-stress. This research is aimed to understand dynamics of family’s coping-stress when raising their child with hydrocephalus. This research was conducted using a qualitative method with a case study approach, performed using an in-depth interview technique. Criteria being used to select informant in this research are family members who took care of the child during early diagnosis until this time, family members had a child with hydrocephalus' diagnosis of the birth, and people who understood the child’s conditions. The result revealed that the dynamics of family’s coping-stress could be seen from family’s way to surrender to God about the illness and their tendency to avoid a negative response from environment (emotion-focused coping). All informants also looked for information about the disease, followed through the treatment and the recovery (problem-focused coping). In this research, social support also influences how to care for the child and how to apply coping stress. Keyword: Stress, coping-stress, hydrocephalus, family

Abstract

Miscarriage is an event of fetal death without any element of intention before the time of birth. Within time, miscarriages can happen recurrently in some women. When experiencing recurrent miscarriage, individuals generally feel sad and disappointed because their hope to have a child has been lost. Recurrent miscarriages experienced by women can lead to trauma, which is the fear and insecurity that the individual feels from traumatic events. The purpose of this study is to describe the traumatic experience of a woman who has experienced recurrent miscarriage. This study used the qualitative research method and phenomenological approach. Data collection was done by interviewing three informants who suffered recurrent miscarriages of at least 3 times. The feelings seen in this study are generally sad, dissappointed and guilty from the miscarriage. The traumatic experiences that came up in the three informants were different. During handling trauma, the informants continue to believe in God for their recurring miscarriages. The informants received social support from family and spouse. During facing their trauma, the informants need social support that became useful to minimize fear and insecurity that exist in them. Social support makes informants able to accept the condition of recurrent miscarriage and reduce the trauma. Two of the three informants got pregnant again and were able to make their fetus survive after receiving social support, especially the support of their husband.
