Chronic illness
Think about a friend or family member you know that has suffered or is currently suffering from a chronic disease. Alternatively, if you have a chronic illness and feel comfortable disclosing, feel free to write about yourself.
In what ways has living with a chronic disease(s) affected this individual (e.g. physically, mentally, interpersonally, financially, etc.)?
Has their chronic illness impacted you and/or other loved ones?
If so, how? Has this individual been forced to implement any changes in their lifestyle? Their ability to work?
With the current pandemic, do you think the change to a work from home lifestyle helps people who have a chronic illness? Why or why not?
How can schools/workplaces be more accommodating to those who are suffering a chronic illness? Please explain your answer.
