| Summary: | Tamara Goldman-Sher talks with a married couple who have developed successful strategies for coping with the husband's long-term kidney disease, which culminated in his having a kidney transplant. The therapist inquires about the couple's current well-being, the progress of the husband's illness, his recuperation, the couple's relationship history, and how the couple resolves problems. The couple describes a variety of behaviors and adaptations to the illness over time. The therapist points out that their willingness to flexibly exchange roles and maintain a balance of independence and interdependence has enabled them to see the husband's illness as a part of their lives but not something that defines them. |
