Cameron's Case Study Take Away

Cameron discussed Will Traynor, the main character in the movie Me Before You. Will is a quadriplegic suffering with adapting to his new life style. One thing I had not previously considered was the occupational therapists role in adapting his sexual lifestyle. As mentioned in the movie, this is a big part of his occupational profile.

I also think the monetary access Will had could allow for an occupational therapist to make an even bigger change. Will had a lot of wealth which would give him access to the best of the best when it came to technology and rehab. It would be important for the therapist to help Will get involved with activities he used to enjoy before the injury.

  1. Very good post Rachel! I completely agree that it would have been important for the therapist to get Will involved with hobbies he use to enjoy.

  2. I have seen the movie Me Before You and agree with Rachel in that Will and his family were very wealthy. This defintely allowed him more opportunity to getting the best adaptive equipment and therapist that he could find. Having the most advanced technology or newest equipment would allow Will to continue doing the activities he loved most.
