CA” Rough Draft My CA paper will focus on my father’s diagnoses of pancreatitis in the year of 2006 and how it has changed my family’s life drastically and how additional life events caused even more stress such as my father’s relationship with his father, how my father’s illness led him to more problems, and my other family members health. Today we still continue with his illness and it will always be an on going battle, but as of now as a family we have grown stronger. For this paper, I will begin with some background information about my family, which consist of my parents, my younger sister and I. Additionally, I will provide background information of my extended family because they were just as involved in the stressor event as I was.

It was a natural generation due to it being from stressor events and lifestyle choices.
8. The illness was a surplus issued because my father experienced long-term physical, mental, and emotional health and still continues to till this day.
9. While there is no actual cure to pancreatitis, the illness is solvable if you allow it to be and adapt to new lifestyle changes. There is nothing more I want then to not see my dad sick again and I know he makes himself sick, not on purpose, but due to his failure on making those changes. Now I will move on to another important factor of this paper, which is Hill’s Double ABC-X Model. The “double A” factor of the model would be my father becoming severely ill and being diagnosed with pancreatitis. This lead to being in the hospital for a month (the first time he went in), leaving his business for long periods of time, and a month without being able to physically eat or drink anything. Not only did this but a big stressor on his life, but my life and the rest of my family’s life as well. We would visit the hospital everyday and cry every night, especially my sister and I, because we had no idea when he would be coming home or if he would get any …show more content…
Starting off with the personal resources I will examine my family’s life looking at our finances, education, health and psychological resources. Finances being a big part in this stressor since my dad was the one bringing home most the money since my mom was a stay at home mom. As for the family system resource I will expand on the Olson’s Family Circumflex model and how I believe my family is connected and flexible. Additionally I will talk about the communication in my family that varies, because my dad doesn’t communicate as well as my mom, so this would often create conflict. Lastly I will talk about the social support system and the continuous love and support we received from all the people around us from our extended family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, PTA/school friends. Since we spent so much time at the hospital we had friends and family brining us dinner every night so my mom would not have to stress about getting home and making
