Discussion Instructions

1) Briefly & succinctly describe your interviewee’s condition and experience with their illness. Who are they (no names please ! ) and what were the main challenges they faced ?

Did they have to make any health habit changes to cope with their condition ?

3) What did you learn about their condition and its treatment ? What did you personally notice was hard for them ? What did they cope with really well ? Did anything surprise you ? 

4) Did you notice any lifestyle improvements they might make or that they are struggling with – remembering to take medicine, changing diet, etc ? Based on what you have learned about habit change, what would you recommend to them to try to aid their recovery ?

5) What impact did the condition and its challenges have on them emotionally – were they scared, did they get down, did they find new, hidden strengths they did not know they had ?

Aim to summarize your person’s situation in about 350-500 words. This means you may need to edit it, to make sure it is focused, well organized, and does not have a lot of extra words.
