She works as an attendant for mentally handicapped children. She likes very much to bring joy to paralysed children and to see their progress. But then she was criticised by her manager for being too enthusiastic, too close to her children and was taken away from them. This affected her very deeply and she wept a lot. She felt abused for her efforts and skills and then thrown away as useless. Then her neuropathy started.
She feels vulnerable, in appraisals and evaluations of her work, in the hospital where she has no grip on what will be done. She is easily hurt. She is very soft, too good to other people, always helping, cannot say no, is always nice and friendly.
