Daily reflection
three ways I made progress today
- spoke to someone I was uncomfortable talking to, and had a good conversation
- spoke to a stranger, had a good conversation too, I was to least ackward too
- volunteering after lunch is much better, more people
what happened today
Assignment is not going well. I can't focus, I'm writing, but it just keep starting again, and again, and again, when I figure out a better way to structure it. I've written loads, but it jus the start, repeated. I'm trying to get the structure right and then I think I can write it. Figuring out how the PEER system will help. I think I know what I'm doing, it's just the getting it onto paper.
At Volunteering at Harplands Ward 1 I was glad to hear that Kevin 2025-11-07 the GP had left the ward for somewhere in Shropshire (a home I think). I figured he maybe had Huntington's and he would only go downhill, but I was glad to hear that he was an Alcoholic and it's some form of brain damage from the Alcohol. I mean that not great, but way better than what I thought. The nurse also said he's diagnosed with Bi-Polat which would explain why he didn't want to interact the last couple of times I saw him.
There's also a young black woman patient, Leah 2025-12-05, who's been there previously. I haven't talked to her before because she's so far away from my comfort zone, I didn't know how to. Well today i struck up a conversation with her. Did it go well? i think so, it didn't exactly flow, but it was a good start, something to build on.
I think the staff on the ward are getting used to me now
