Activity
Tutorial
Shelley is an 18-year-old female who lives with her parents and her younger brother. She had graduated from a local high school in June. Shelley received ODSP (Ontario Disability Support) when she turned 18 years of age because of her intellectual disability. Soon after, this young woman started working part-time at a local grocery store after completing a work placement but had taken a sick leave as of November. Her hobbies included painting, journaling, and video games. She has a few close friends she has known from grade 8 whom she sees over Skype. She has a younger brother, 16 years of age, Tom. Tom has always excelled in school, is popular, and plays on many sports teams. Her parents are Jennifer (42 years of age) and Peter (43 years of age). Her parents are Black Caribbean first-generation immigrants from Trinidad. Her father worked full time in the steel industry for many years until about a year ago when he took sick leave due to cardiovascular disease. Her father was described as being somewhat distant and critical of Shelley. Shelley described a very close relationship with her mother, who provided most of the instrumental and emotional support to Shelley over the years. Her mother was recently laid off in March from a restaurant where she worked as a waitress. Then she was quarantined for two weeks at home in her room in March with COVID. Shelley’s mother had residual fatigue and cough after recuperating from the acute symptoms of COVID. None of the other family members tested positive for COVID, but they all had vitamin D deficiency and started taking supplements.
