The aim of this study was to gain a deeper understandingof how parents of adolescents with cerebral palsy (CP) experience their ownhealth and wellbeing and their needs for support during the adolescent’s transition toadulthood. Methods: An inductive qualitative approach was used, including interviewswith 15 mothers and fathers to 10 adolescents with CP aged 17–18 years. Latent contentanalysis was used for analyzing the data. Results: Themain theme “Friction blisters chafingand healing during transition” illustrates the parents’ experiences. Five sub-themesformed the parents’ experiences of concerns along with sorrow and stress in life, worriesabout what was to come, their need for support, strategies for coping, and experiencesof cohesion. Conclusions: Knowledge of parents’ experiences of their health, wellbeing,and needs provide valuable information for the planning of transition for adolescentswith disabilities.
