One half of the MS Society’s mission is to enhance the quality of life of the people affected by Multiple Sclerosis. They achieve this by placing a heavy focus on client services. The Client Service (CS) Coordinator meets with individuals one-on-one to help them, provides outreach sessions in the cities in our chapter area, plans events to educate about treatment, and research, and plans events to bring families together who are affected by the illness. A large part of my work term was focused on supporting these initiatives and accompanying the CS Coordinator on her outreach sessions and events. MS can affect how people talk and how they interact with people. This experience allowed me to understand how to interact with vulnerable populations

Good or Service: Mr. Gulash lived in Shelton, Connecticut. He wanted an above-ground swimming pool installed in his backyard. Gulash contacted Stylarama, Inc. (Stylarama), a company specializing in the sale and construction of pools. The two parties entered into a contract that called for Stylarama to “furnish all labor and materials to construct a Wavecrest brand pool, and furnish and install a pool with vinyl liners.” The total cost for materials and labor was $3,690. There was no breakdown in the contract of costs between labor and materials. After the pool was installed, its sides began bowing out, the 2” × 4” wooden supports for the pool rotted and misaligned, and the entire pool became tilted. Gulash brought suit, alleging that Stylarama had violated several provisions of Article 2 of the UCC. Is this transaction one involving goods, making it subject to Article 2? Gulash v. Stylarama, 33 Conn.Supp. 108, 364 A.2d 1221, Web 1975 Conn.Super. Lexis 209 (Superior Court of Connecticut) (Cheesman, 2010, p. 292).
When undermined by an incurable disease, it’s difficult to think positively. Especially with multiple sclerosis, where life adjustments - including changes to communication, daily routines, even basic bodily functions - are necessary, it’s likely to approach situations hopelessly. However, essayist Nancy Mairs provides her own detailed anecdote on accepting these lifelong impairments. In her essay, “On Being a Cripple,” Mairs develops her attitude toward her condition through multiple accounts of asyndetons, figurative language, and her personal experience.
I presented Esteban’s case during case consultation because I noticed that I had countertransference when doing his intake. My expectation when presenting this case was to receive feedback that would help me to provide effective treatment to Esteban without my countertransference affecting his treatment. This section of the paper will talk about the feedback I received about my countertransference and how to support Esteban.
The problem: University of Nevada Cooperative Extension (UNCE), ALL4Kids and Little Cooks & Little Books, are funded by Supplemental Nutrient Assistance Program Education (SNAP-Ed). SNAP-ED, has imposed a new policy that there are no reoccurring services allowed at the SNAP-Ed school sites. The policy created more community based instructors (CBI) then SNAP-Ed available school sites, because of the new policy both programs are struggling. On the structural totem pole shareholders and the community can dictate what can happen with SNAP-Ed funded programs. UNCE teams are strong, and ALL4KIDS, and Little Books & Little Cooks teams are have experience and education people and their focus is finding new sites to serve.
This can wreak havoc on a person’s emotional state, which Mairs comments, “I am immobilized by acute attacks of depression, which may or may not be physiologically related to MS but are certainly its logical concomitant” (Mairs 67). In addition to the unpredictable physical losses that one can sustain from MS - including vision, coordination, and bladder control - one can also lose their will to live a normal life. Mairs discusses the lives of two women who share the same disease, one of which, “...stays at home and insists that her husband, a small quiet man, a retired civil servant, stay there with her except for a quick weekly foray to the supermarket” (71). The other woman has an active life and tries to participate in as many activities as she would without the disease. Mairs aspires to live like the second woman as her life progresses, but the first woman has obviously lost her mental battle with the disease. Since there is no known cure for MS, the only thing that one who is diagnosed can do is accept that their life will always be changing and it will never be easy. Towards the beginning of her disease, she thought about MS constantly and wondered when the time would come that she would no longer be physically capable of killing herself. Once she learned that she would never finish adjusting, she was able to come to an uneasy peace with her condition. Besides the

My client is a 3-year-old boy that has a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder. Occupation-based problems typically seen in toddlers with a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder includes difficulty with dressing, toileting, bathing, self-feeding, socialization, interacting, and make eye contact with adults and other children.
Your role in the In-Service will be more discussion-oriented. The itinerary I have for the In-Service will feature 8 different activities (mostly video-based) that help other student advisors and ProStaff members familiarize themselves with different concepts of diversity and intersectionality such how white people discuss race, racism within the gay community, male body image issues, etc (I can send you the itinerary I have, if you want). Then you and various other members apart of the Truman community who apart of the panel will share their knowledge and experience about concepts of diversity, factors they related to or wanted to expand on that were featured in the videos or their own personal experience with how they balance intersectionality of their identities. The whole In-Service should last about an hour to an hour and a half, depending on the audience response (which will other student advisors and ProStaff of Residence Life) with the material. If you have any more questions/concerns. Please let me know. Thank you.
1. "Faking. There's the rub. Tugging at the fringes of my consciousness always is the terror that people are kind to me only because I'm a cripple." This quote shows that although the author is a disabled people, she will never want to be treated as a disabled. On the other hand, it will make her a feeling of disadvantage, which will create inferiority. This also would make people ignore the charm of her personality and other aspects. It it unfair for disabled people to be treated as specials. 2. "Doctors to think of themselves as healers, and for this reason many have trouble dealing with MS patients, whose disease in its intransigence defeats their aims and mock their skills." The quote shows that doctors, who are normal people, should normally shows their sympathy when the time they face their patients. However, after hearing from hundreds of patients per year, the compassion, which is also patience, is eroded by the time just like the interests of working. So, compassion should not be treated as a necessary characteristic that everyone must have. We need to appreciate the people who shows compassion but never ask them to do
Thesis: Multiple sclerosis brings daily challenges to whomever struggles with it, but with the right team of doctors and medication, it can be maintained.
The client has had a strong support system in the past and is open to creating another one. This is strength because it demonstrates that the client is open reaching out to others in times of need and is a resiliency factor.
Normally, when a person is diagnosed with multiple sclerosis there is an immediate impact on all people who love them most. People with multiple sclerosis are constantly in need of assistance to do their daily tasks since their cognitive and functional impairments. This care is provided by informal caregivers who take care of the patient without being paid for their services. Eventually, the patient and carers are placed under immense strain and burden of the disease.
