: The Norwegian Regional Committee for Medical and Health Research Ethics has approved the END research project (ref. nr. 2017/2486/REK vest). All participants received written information about the project’s aim before participation and were verbally informed about the study’s purpose and methodology at the start of the interviews. Furthermore, it was explained that the data would be stored on the research server at the university and published in a non-identifiable form. The parents provided written consent for participation and were informed that they could withdraw from the process at any time and demand the deletion of their data. The interview procedures followed recommendations on research participation developed from work with traumatically bereaved parents (Dyregrov, ). The participants were given information including the project leader’s phone number and e-mail address and invited to make contact after the interviews if they needed follow-up. All the parents reported positive experiences related to their participation.
