BA is hard to live with, some may have a life time of surgeries and medications when others may live a somewhat normal life with never needing a transplant or having to take anti rejection medication daily. Young children who are having a hard time dealing with BA should most certainly receive professional counseling so they are able to find ways that they may or may not know of to help relieve their anxiety, if severe medication could be required to help as well. I don't think anybody living with any kind of illness is ever 100% happy about it, but how you or the people around you go about it can make huge differences.
