Newbie in hospital invited to support group
As it turned out the gentleman did not sleep the night before then 2 hours of therapy he was sleeping so I said let him rest.
yesterday I stopped to check on him and he was angry directed at me. the therapy aid had written the support group meeting on the big white board schedule.
the newbie yelled at me " if I want to go to therapy ( support group) I'll make that decision, not you.
I told him that group is completely voluntary,
I hope in time he processes through his losses, too early right, maybe it was too much of a reality check, he is definitely in the anger stage.
of course we look back and say wow I wish I had had that opportunity, but we may have reacted the same way that early in the recovery process.
be blessed and be a blessing,
jay
