Each patient sees the world based on their lived experiences, including their illness journey, and this perception influences their self-identity and how they interact with their environment. This piece, Growth and Resilience in the Healthcare System, explores how patients grow and are shaped by their experiences, including their interactions with our healthcare system. We examine the limitations patients may feel are imposed upon them by their illness and their resilience in navigating these challenges. This piece showcases the diversity in patients’ illness experiences and is a reminder to focus on understanding and treating the person, not the diagnosis.
