Supportive, or palliative, care is care aimed at comfort versus cure and treatment. The decision to accept palliative care versus aggressive treatment is often a decision parents struggle with.

It is only through this care and respect that parents can truly "be there" for their child.

The endocrine system is a complex collection of hormone-producing glands that control basic body functions such as metabolism, growth and sexual development. An Endocrinologist is a specialist in diagnosis and treatment relating to how hormones affect the human body.

The amount of hormones produced by each gland is carefully balanced. Too much or too little of a certain hormone can have effects throughout the body and cause various endocrine disorders. Many of the hormones produced by the endocrine glands interact with each other to maintain this delicate balance.
