    The unexpected visitor

    Por Ana Luiza Novis

    Sobre

    Imagine that you receive an inconvenient and unexpected visitor, with which you have no intimacy. A complete stranger who arrives causing a lot of confusion in your life.
    In our professional practice, we are often confronted with our clients and their families living in a situation like this. The conflict generated by these unexpected visitors in their lives, such as the onset of a disease with a difficult prognosis, persistent stressful situations and/or generated by some twist of fate, often leads to the feeling of an extreme situation that invades these individuals? lives causing great disruption. It becomes necessary, therefore, to seek a new perspective that can create a new path, turning adversity into possibilities.
    The choice of the ?unexpected visitor? metaphor seems very rich to us in meaning, because it is a very common situation, experienced by anyone, regardless of culture or family system, besides enabling the understanding that you live with an illness, and not that you are a sick person, which favors the beginning of a new conversation.
    We noticed that those ?visitors? that become long-term guests or even guests for life turn out to be greater clinical challenges. In general, the individuals who fit this profile are those who receive a diagnosis of a chronic disease. They must deal with a new reality along with their family, that promotes a great deal of insecurity, fear and anger, creating difficulty or inability to practice autonomy in this context.
    We often feel hindered and fully hostage to the diagnosis. Too often, we are stuck to the history of the disease or diseases, stuck to the narratives that label the life of a person. That generate limited, reductionist understandings, confusing the individual with their illness.
    To exercise these understandings, we must be curious to know unknown territories and conquer
    ????????
    ????????courage to experience situations we have never imagined. We need to seek resources that help us reshape the spice and rhythm that we want to give life, in order to get closer to the desires, dreams and joy of living.
    Inspired by these reflections, was born the idea of creating a story about a person, like us, that on a given day faced this situation in their life.
    Our character has all the feelings, sensations and reactions that were shared with us in the day to day of our practice, where we have had the opportunity to explore the ability of our clients to dribble and bear difficult situations, rescuing their authority in life.
