There was also Sam’s employer at the coffee shop who was just his employer and maybe not aware of what Sam was really facing in day to day life. I feel Sam would have benefited from an advocate and support from when Lucy’s mother decided that having a baby and being with Sam was not her life and she didn’t want a baby. Sam was left to raise Lucy with only a few meaningful people in his life. Most of these meaningful people had disabilities themselves. Things maybe could have been prevented if help was provided before Lucy was born.

Matt now has a son, a good wife, and an ordinary life; he still has a good family life without going to university. In contrast with Kate, although she has good education and job, she doesn’t have her own family and in fact, she says, “I had never thought I would really love anyone.” (89) From another perspective, she seems to be the one that is going to have a sad life. Similar with Luke, when he rejects Sally it is due to his responsibility as a caregiver. He is happy with his decision since it is for his family. If Matt chooses to go to university instead and leaves Marie, he will most likely lose his happiness and truly be an emotionless “nerd” and suffers like Kate who does not truly knows the meaning of love.
Unlike Odysseus, Edward has a better chance of improving the family connection he lacks because he is home from time to time. By covering his inner self, Edward never releases his genuine side. Once Edward takes sick, William expects him to finally unleash the honest interior, which has been veiled his whole life. Edward either does not pay attention to William trying to get to know more about him or just does not care. Edward’s response for each revealing question is ignored with another story.
This essay attempts to provide an overview on human sociological activities, behaviour and experience and how it affects the physical and mental health of an individual. Also contribution would be made from a case study involving a diabetic gentlemen living under poor conditions with his wife and two children. Health can be defined as a state of an absolute well‐being in a form of emotional, physical and psychological state. This definition does not acknowledge only diseases and illness but also reiterates the need to recognize physically healthy body which also depends on social environment and a stable mental state. Sociological perspective of health posits that society depends on healthy people to function properly and also help to control illness (Parsons, 1975).
As illness and its treatment affect the psychological, social and economic wellbeing, as well as the biological integrity, of individuals, any definition should be all encompassing while allowing individual components to be delineated. This allows the impact of different disease states or interventions on overall or specific aspects of QoL to be determined (Wimberly, 2010). P.517 The term “quality of life” is used to indicate the general well-being of people and societies. It often is associated with the term "standard of living," but the two do not necessarily mean the same. A standard of living merely is the evaluation of the wealth and employment status of person in a society.
John’s biggest downfall in this story is the fact that he is stuck with the unfortunate task of being not only his wife’s lover, but also her doctor. Instead of being a concerned husband and being there for his wife mentally, he took a more clinical attitude to the situation and there for our narrator was left to her own devises. Also John only knows the “pattern” of his wife and does not see the trapped woman with in. John truly care for his wife and is trying everything in his power to help and cure her. Unfortunately the only way he knows how to help her it by treating her as a medical patient or as an object and not as a person who needed love, not just care.

As Nora knows that the Doctor is a man of means and has nobody to provide for, she is trying to make use of his health condition and plays tricks with the emotions of the Doctor. Nora possesses another trait from her father, that is, she knows how to maintain her household.
