The multiple dimensions of health and disease of the ecobiopsychosocial being in A monster calls (2016)
Abstract Connor O'Malley is a 12-year-old boy suffering from caregiver syndrome due to his mother's terminal illness; his fears materialize and come to life in a fantastic way constituting a fearsome monster whose purpose is to bring to light his deepest fears and feelings. Every terminally ill patient, when becoming no longer independent, requires care from caregivers who may ensure their well-being, and in many cases the caregivers are family members. Caregiver Syndrome is a condition caused by the strenuous care of a dependent family member. This syndrome manifests in response to emotional stress and is characterized by both physical and psychological exhaustion. By establishing itself as an ecobiopsychosocial entity, human health is the result of well-being in each sphere, so that, when only one of them is affected, the health of an individual can be affected, as occurs in caregiver syndrome. The caregiver syndrome in Connor is the subject of this article, as are the potential means for its approach.
