Abstract
Ethical issues in neonatology and pediatrics are discussed presenting dilemmas faced by parents and health professionals in the care of very sick newborns. Part 1 contains an interview with the parents of a 13-week premature infant who died at age six weeks; the interview was made a year after the death. Long term effects are considered along with recalling the information processing and decisions by the parents. The segment is without action and quite dry. Part 2 includes comments by two mothers, an NICU nurses's views, and a doctor's thoughts after his own child died; the second part seems to have a wider appeal.
