Please call emergency services if you are in a medical situation. It must be considered that I am NOT a trained medical profession. Any judgments that I make are likely to be amateurish, and from the perspective of a civilian. I will always do my part to be reasonable and diligent, but I MUST be clear that I am unlikely to be reliable or capable in handling a situation of medical urgency. You must reach out to medical services if you are facing a situation of dire needs or medical consequences. If there is a serious problem you are dealing with or a more chronic nature, I am confident in having a conversation of calm and diligent care, but it is with the confidence of a civilian that I am willing to be a part of that, and not based on training. What I have to offer is meant to compliment the existing medical infastructure of society; it has to be known, and considered, that there are reasons that things and services exist in the ways that they do. It is often based on extreme efficacy in the short term, that certain protocols exist.
I do believe that people need more emotional, gentle, and gradual support in the long run than what is currently possible for most people to attain, but that is the opinion of a civilian. I am someone that benefits from slower conversations, and more meaningful topics, but that does not mean that I am qualified to give advice in accordance with laws or procedural requirements of medical professionals. If you need help, you need to reach out to a medical professional. If you need comfort, or someone to talk to, I may be able to help. It is NOT my estimation that I will be able to help in a medical situation, but if there is a chance that a gentle conversation may help provide context and relief to someone dealing with complex and drawn out issue then I would like to try. I can hope that I can be of help, but I am NOT promising that my approach has medical relevance. It is more like I am a person in a cafe with a curiousity and willingness to help, but only with situations that are of a more protracted nature.
I hope that I can help with someone taking on a big change, or a change from the norm, but it is only being through gentle conversations that this change may occur.
