Objective: to know the itinerary taken by the family to obtain the diagnosis of the children with special health needs. Method: a qualitative study was carried out in a pediatric inpatient unit in southern Brazil. Grounded Theory was used as a methodological reference. Sixteen (16) family caregivers participated. Data were collected in 2019 through interviews and submitted to open and axial coding. Results: the families traveled a long route until receiving the children's diagnosis: they detected changes in their general condition; performed several exams; they were suspicious of the diagnosis because other members of the family had already been diagnosed with the same conditions; received information from health professionals about the necessary care and specialized services for the treatment; showed fear, panic and denial; and they valued faith in God in the hope of improving of the children. Final considerations: nurses need to develop an educational process with the family so that they feel prepared and capable of taking care of these children.
