Osteoporosis: Marissa
Scenario A
Marissa
Marisa, a petite, Caucasian, 15-year-old, just learned this morning that her 55-year-old grandmother, with whom she has lived since the death of her parents, was diagnosed with osteoporosis after visiting her doctor because of chronic hip and wrist pain.
For the past year, Marisa’s life has been one tragedy after another. Her happily married parents were killed in a car crash nine months earlier on the way home from their 16th anniversary surprise party. Her boyfriend of two years moved to a different state a few months back and ended their relationship shortly after. To make things worse, her first year in high school was disastrous. Not only did she fail algebra, she didn’t make the soccer team, as she had hoped.
Marisa’s grandmother lives far from where Marisa used to, and because she is an only child, Marisa often finds herself feeling lonely and on the brink of depression. The only person she feels she can count on besides her grandmother is her best friend, Tara. She told Tara about her grandmother’s disease as soon as she found out. Marisa has no idea what osteoporosis is or what it does to the body. All she knows is that her grandmother is the only close living relative she has and she can’t fathom losing another loved one.
