Is This An Overview?
Frank Briggs is a doctor who is helping a mother handle the
depression after losing a child.
Buckholdt tells the story of how the child died. The story of the toll that drugs took on the
child. How erratic the child’s behavior
had become. As a mother, Buckholdt
wanted to help, but the child made decisions that led to death. To handle the depression, Buckholdt sometimes
takes prescription medication.
Frank knows and can provide the medication needed for
Buckholdt, but wants to help more. Wants
more than the prescriptions, wants to have more regular conversations to help
with the depression. Buckholdt does
improve with the medication, but claims to handle life without them. Frank tries to impose more regular therapy
sessions. Why does Frank want to have
proximity to Buckholdt?
