I have guaranteed their anonymity so cannot acknowledge them personally, but I hope I have done justice to their accounts. This thesis has been a journey for me and what I have learnt over the years has been invaluable. Lessons learnt from the participants of this study, the loss of a partner, close family members, and the birth of my gorgeous daughter Iris, have each allowed a more full appreciation of life and of the impact of life-limiting illness. It is all encompassing; relationships change, roles shift, and a sense of meaning and purpose become all the more prominent. Love and happiness take a whole new meaning. These events and related conversations have helped shape my worldview. I share the following acknowledgements: ~ Professor Nigel King You are a guiding force. I marvel at your abilities – writing, editing, discussing and developing ideas. Your support and guidance have helped me so much. I hope that in time, I will be able to make such valuable contributions as you have made, to the field of applied psychological research and to the lived experiences of those within it. Thank you, I am indebted. ~ My husband, Yoan. You have endured many moments and your patience and understanding has persevered. ~ My daughter, Iris. Thank you for being patient with mummy doing this work. I promise that now I will have more time to play. ~ My Mum. Thank you for helping me with Iris. Without you helping me with childcare, I would not have been able to complete this work. ~ Antoni, and my good friends Michael, Maryam, Eva, Karen & Eamonn. You each have watched me struggle, cry, laugh and celebrate through the duration of this work. Your love and friendship means the world to me. I thank you all for ‘being there’. Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans John Lennon 2 Abstract This research project sets out to explore the lived experience of Being and caring for a child with a Life Limiting Condition. This research uses van Manen’s (1990) conceptualisation of hermeneutic phenomenology that is both a research methodology and a method. The first empirical work is a preliminary study using focus groups with professionals. The findings of this work acts as a backdrop to the further two studies that involve interviewing, in-depth, twenty eight parents and five children. The second study details the parents’ lived experiences and the final study looks at five parent-child dyads and their combined lifeworlds. In keeping with the phenomenological methodology, data was analysed using Template Analysis (King, 2004). It is a rare opportunity to observe and speak with children with Life Limiting Conditions and so gain insight into their lives. Their vulnerability is often characterised by rare and difficult-to-diagnose conditions, significantly shortened life spans with compromised quality of life. For the participants, the experience of Life Limiting illness was not only personal, but was also transactional, communicative and profoundly social. The challenge is one of Being thrown into an abnormal unready world which compels one to consider the paradoxical temporality of the here and now. This brings recognition of being the same as others in a lived space, but also being different in a fundamental way that has a significant impact. The challenge is met by adapting to the environment to find new ways of Being. This research encourages readers to thoughtfully reflect on what is it like for these families and those involved in their care, and to consider practice improvements that address the triadic experience (of child, parent and professional). The full significance of such reflection will ideally promote further questioning and inquiry, in keeping with the always provisional nature of phenomenological inquiry. 3 Disseminated findings Papers 1.

    MCA 700 Discography by David Edwards, Mike Callahan & Patrice Eyries © 2018 by Mike Callahan MCA-700 Midline/Reissue Series: By the time the reissue series reached MCA-700, most of the ABC reissues had been accomplished in the MCA 500-600s. MCA decided that when full price albums were converted to midline prices, the albums needed a new number altogether rather than just making the administrative change. In this series, we get reissues of many MCA albums that were only one to three years old, as well as a lot of Decca reissues. Rather than pay the price for new covers and labels, most of these were just stamped with the new numbers in gold ink on the front covers, with the same jackets and labels with the old catalog numbers.
