Cover Story: In this article, Tremolada and colleagues describe a study designed to investigate the narratives of 75 children and adolescents with leukemia that go back to their daily life adopting the mixed-method approach of ecocultural theory at the stop-therapy time. The results show that their older age and the hematopoietic stem cells transplantation in their therapy protocol negatively influence their relationships at school and their academic performance, especially if their feelings about the disease and follow-up visits are negative. Based on the results obtained and the literature on the delicate moment of the return of children and young people to school at the end of the leukemia therapies, it is possible to discuss useful applicative ideas for teachers who welcome their pupil back into the classroom.
