Read the paragraph.
Like so many of the Greek divinities, however, the
refined conception of the Muses is somewhat marred
by the acerbity with which they punished any effort on
the part of mortals to rival them in their divine powers.
An instance of this is seen in the case of Thamyris, a
Thracian bard, who presumed to invite them to a trial of
skill in music. Having vanquished him, they not only
afflicted him with blindness, but deprived him also of
the power of song.

CASE SCENARIO 2

Chad is a 9 year old Chinese-Filipino, high school student, who was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis when he was 3 months old. While growing up, he has been required to go to the hospital every other month. He now only has to go about once or twice a year. Chad comes into see you at his mom’s request. His mom, Sylvia, is concerned about the fact that Chad is refusing to take his medication. She has noticed that Chad is starting to cough more and gets exhausted much easier. He stopped taking the medication about two months after Kyle, a friend that Chad had met in the hospital, died. Chad had maintained a friendship with Kyle for about 2 years. Chad respected Kyle because he was one of the few people who didn’t consider him a foreigner, a common occurrence despite the fact that his ancestors immigrated to the Phil. in the late 1800’s. Kyle had been waiting for a lung transplant, and Chad had observed him rapidly decline in health. Chad refused to discuss Kyle’s death with his mother. And recently, there were long periods of time when he wouldn’t speak to her at all.

In a phone conversation with Sylvia, you learned that after Kyle’s funeral, Sylvia had hoped that Chad could spend the summer with his father (Kevin) and older brother David (15) who live in another state. Kevin owns a small car dealership and David works with him detailing the cars on the lot. The dealership has been successful enough to pay for the numerous surgeries and maintain both middle class households. Kevin and Sylvia divorced when Chad was 6. When Sylvia discussed the idea of Chad coming for the summer, Kevin said he didn’t feel it would be a good idea because of animosity between David and Chad. In the initial session, Sylvia explained that “David has always felt that I favored Chad because I spent so much time with him. I had to because of his health, but there still is a lot of jealousy.
