    AbstractThis article explores the presence of chronic sorrow in families of chronically ill children and applies role theory concepts in the understanding of this phenomenon. Research findings in the area of chronic sorrow, family adaptation, and role theory are used to formulate propositions specific to the application of role theory in the study of chronic sorrow. The clinical and research applicability for nurses working with families of chronically disabled children are discussed to assist in providing quality family-nursing care.
