“…Second, preparation may refer to social and informational support, such as interacting with patient support groups, meeting other families affected by the condition, and gathering information about prognosis and quality of life (Benn & Chapman, 2010;Bratt, Järvholm, Ekman-Joelsson, Mattson, & Mellander, 2015;Helm et al, 1998;Lewis et al, 2014;Nelson Goff et al, 2013). Third, preparation may refer to psychological "coping" or adjustments to the reality of raising a child with a genetic condition: these adjustments may include grieving for the loss of the child that parents expected and incorporating new genetic information into a revised vision for the family's future (Bingham, Correa, & Huber, 2012;Chen & Schiffman, 2000;Fonda Allen & Mulhauser, 1995;Glidden, Billings, & Jobe, 2006;Hickerton, Aitken, Hodgson, & Delatycki, 2012;Markens et al, 2010;McCoyd, 2008;Natoli et al, 2012;Statham, Solomou, & Chitty, 2000;Zuskar, 1987). These meanings and activities intersect and influence one another (Skinner, Edge, Altman, & Sherwood, 2003) and form a foundation for postnatal family adaptation (Bailey, 2007), but they are rarely parsed out in studies examining the impact of prenatal diagnosis (Kalfoglou, Suthers, Scott, & Hudson, 2004;Sandelowski & Barroso, 2005;Sheets, Best, Brasington, & Will, 2011;Sheets, Crissman, et al, 2011).…”
