Case Study
Andrew is a 69 year old gentleman of Italian heritage, who has come into hospital for a
below knee amputation due to complications from his Type 2 Diabetes (18 years post
diagnosis). He is retired and lives with his wife of 40 years and his daughter, son in law
and their three young children in a three bedroom house in the outer suburbs of
Sydney. He has failing eyesight and has not had a job for the past 15 years due to his
health problems. He is currently taking medication to help manage his blood sugar
(Metformin), however his blood sugars continue to be very high. Andrew does not like
taking his medication as he finds it expensive and does not believe it helps him maintain
his blood sugars within a healthy range. He believes there is nothing he can do to
manage his blood sugar levels and that the amputation was a natural progression of the
disease state. He infrequently takes his blood sugars, and does not see the point in
attending frequent doctor appointments again due to the cost.
Andrew’s son in law is the only one who brings an income into his household, and this
must support Andrew, Andrew’s wife, his daughter and their children. With limited
resources, it is important that Andrew keeps his medical bills as low as possible. The
family does enjoy spending time together and enjoy celebrating and connecting over
meals. His son-in-law usually joins Andrew in an evening after the family meal to drink
wine and smoke cigars. Both men find this an important time to connect and relax after
a long day. Andrew socialises very infrequently with anyone else outside of his family,
as his failing health and eyesight prevents him from being able to drive anymore.
