Hey.

What is your name?

Question |
|
Tina Jones.
|
|
|
Why are you here today?
|
Question |
|
I got this scrape on my foot a while ago, and I thought it would heal up on its own, but now it’s looking pretty nasty. And the pain is killing me!
|
|
|
Am sorry to hear that?
|
Empathize |
|
I appreciate you saying that.

When did you get the scrape?

Well, I got the scrape a week ago, but the scrape and the pain got a lot worse in the last few days.

|
Did you hurt any other part?

|
|
|
how has the pain changed over time?
|
Question |

Well, right after he died, after the funeral and everything, I just tried to get through that. Mom was having such a hard time, crying a lot, everything made her sad, she was kinda depressed. So I guess at first I just focused on getting things done–groceries, laundry, insurance papers and stuff. Knowing that Mom needed me kinda helped me get through day by day. There was about a month where it was hard for us to get to church. Even getting up and ready for church was too overwhelming. But our church family helped us out, and gave us rides to church and brought meals and all that, so they really helped build us back up. Things were only hard like that for a few months.
