Es un hombre de 62 años, viudo y con dos hijos, sin alergias conocidas y bien vacunado. Nos cuenta que lleva ya varios meses acudiendo al centro de salud (C.S) para curar su úlcera en el pie derecho, debido a que sufre de pie diabético. Padece de diabetes Mellitus tipo 1, hipertensión arterial, dislipemia y psoriasis. Nos comenta que está un poco cansado de tener que venir tres días a la semana al C.S a curarse, pero que no quiere que le pase como la última vez, que por no ir la ulceración empeoró bruscamente. Nos cuenta que vive con uno de sus hijos y entre los dos se apañan estupendamente, comenta que nada es como cuando estaba su mujer pero que afronta la vida con positividad. Está feliz porque su otro hijo acaba de ser padre y el tener una nieta le saca muchas sonrisas. Le preguntamos por su círculo social, nos cuenta que nunca le han faltado los amigos y sale todos los días con ellos. No obstante, debido a su diabetes mal controlada le ha derivado en una retinopatía y nefropatía diabética. Es fumador de tabaco habitual y de puros ocasionalmente, nos cuenta que no tiene intención de dejarlo, sabe que no es lo mejor dada su situación, pero según dice “de algo hay que morir”.
He is a 62-year-old widower with two children, with no known allergies, and fully vaccinated. He tells us that he has been going to the health center (HC) for several months to treat the ulcer on his right foot, due to his diabetic foot. He suffers from type 1 diabetes mellitus, high blood pressure, dyslipidemia, and psoriasis. He tells us that he is a little tired of having to come to the health center three days a week for treatment, but that he doesn’t want to end up like the last time, when the ulcer worsened sharply due to not going. He tells us that he lives with one of his sons and the two of them get along wonderfully. He says that nothing is like it was when his wife was here, but that he faces life with positivity. He is happy because his other son has just become a father, and having a granddaughter brings a smile to his face. We ask him about his social circle, and he tells us that he has never lacked friends and goes out with them every day. However, his poorly controlled diabetes has led to diabetic retinopathy and nephropathy. He is a regular tobacco smoker and occasional cigar smoker. He tells us he has no intention of quitting. He knows it’s not the best course of action given his condition, but, as he says, «You have to die of something.»
