Case study
Bruce Wayne, a 27 year old Caucasian man who works daily on farm planting and harvesting crops in the land that he was given by his father just a few months back. He has a wife and two sons at the ages of 4 and 7 years old, the kids don’t really work on the land but they use it for playing and running around with their dog. Because of the bugs and things that lived on his land Bruce took actions against getting bitten because he knew the sickness could interfere with the growing of his crops, this would hurt his only source of making money to support his family. Being in the fields with the bugs was creepy enough for him, but getting bitten was almost like a horror movie for him.
One night he felt a sharp pain while he was lying in bed going to sleep. He thought it was a twig of a piece of hay that might have been on his bed, he left it alone. When he woke up, his leg was throbbing in the spot he was bitten, he looked in the mirror and saw a black dot on top of a red circle on the back of his calf. After looking close he saw that he was bitten by a tick and it had been feeding on his blood the whole entire time he was sleep. Being an extremely hard working man that he is, he figured he had work to do, then burned the tick off with an enflamed red needle point and went on into the field. He was thinking about the things he could’ve gotten from the bite. He thought “The plague, NOT THE PLAGUE”. He continued to think this way for hours while in the field. He kept a sharp eye for any bugs in fields while he was walking or kneeling in the field. Another night went pat and after waking up he noticed a reddish orange “Bull’s Eye” shaped rash like thing developing around the spot where he was bitten two days ago. This worried him drastically; he thinks he has a chance of dying within that day. Having this fear causes him to go and get checked out by a doctor in a nearby town. After the doc asked what was wrong he said, “I was bitten by some type of tick while was working in my field”. The doctor was fascinated and looked at the spot where the bite was found days ago. After seeing the mark the doctor was devastated and mumbling he said “You have Lyme Disease”. Hearing these four words made Bruce think of all of his life’s work just left there after he died. He never planned on his land being given up this early. The doctor asked him has anything been bothering you?? He replied with a pondering face “I have been having long term headaches and joint pain with the addition of mild sickness. After hearing this, the doctor nodded and said “yup, you definitely have Lyme disease.
Being in mind set that he was going to die he was frantically asking to speak to his kids and tell them that he loved them. But right before he got to the phone the doctor told him that luckily there was a treatment for the exact disease that had been suffering from. The vaccine called “Lymerix”. Which is an anti-virus used to almost disable the virus known as Lyme Borreliosis. The side effect of the shot was mind form of nausea. But to get rid of this disease he didn’t care what the side effects were. He was told to come back once a month for 6 months. The vaccines were given every 2 months with a check-up in between those months. He asked if his disease was easily transmitted. The doctor answered “No, the only way to transmit is to put infected blood directly into another’s blood stream. This is uncommon in any type of household.
Six months had past and he went in and never missed or was late for an appointment. He felt great and was happy that it was harvesting. He had gotten his last vaccination the day before and it proud to be rid of his disease. He survived this disease and takes any precautions to make sure he gets nothing like it again. He tucks his pants into his socks and wears long sleeves with a tick repellant stick in them.
