1.we are the same because we are all human and we are all put on this earth to be us. we are different since they have to live a harder life not always having control of the things that happens to them and cant always say ill see you tomorrow because today could always be their last.
2. the needs are more medical help and depending on where they are they need money help. some people cant work so they can make sure that whom ever is sick can get the attention they need.

1. They wouldn't be able to do some of the stuff that you can do. They would have a harder life to live. They might not have as long as long of lifespan as you do I mean short life. They still can eat and drink but they might need help. They can do stuff with you but they might need a lot of help well doing it. They are sick and your not sick so it might be hard but you can spend time together with each other.
2. The challenges they might face are trying to stay positive. Trying not to ague and fight. Also maybe being able to not spend time together or not do regular stuff like a regular family. Also in the worst of cases death the might have to face as a challenge. They might need supports from their doctor and from friends or their other side of the family and also medical insurance help in case something bad should happen to anyone in their family at all.

1) I think that people affected by chronic illness are the same as others in every way, they're human, they have feelings, and they have emotions. The only difference between the two, is that people dealing without a chronic illness don't need constant watching, don't need medical attention all the time, or they do, depending on the situation. I think everyone is equal, with or with out a chronic illness.
2) depending on the chronic illness, you would probably need a source of money (because you would spend time with the person who had the chronic illness, or if it's you, you wouldn't have a source of money and yeah), councillor, doctor (obviously), and people who would not be negative around you (a good support system)

1. People that have chronicle illness can still go out and have fun like others enjoy their lives and they can even go on dates with their boyfriend/girlfriend and they can still be with family just like others but the big differnts is that people with chronic illness have to go through so much pain and things that effect the family like moms or dad have to quite their jobs to take care of them and stay by their side and fight for then to stay healthy, family have to go to hospitals and suffer through their rough life some chronic illness can cause a fight with family they might devorce and life would change if they die. Their happiness dies and they can't let go. They need to be inpack with doctors friends and people who are their for them.

1. They are the same because they want to do the same things everyone else is doing. The difference is that they can't do these things since they would get sick and their body's won't be able to keep up with those things.
2. To get enough money so the person with the illness can be helped. Be ready to let go of that person. Help the person with the chronic illness when ever you can. Don't forget to thing about other people in your family if their are some.

1 I think financial need always come to play, you will need a lot of money in order to buy all of the medical treatment. Stress and depression is always a factor. It's just hard to think someone has a disease that can't be cured and might die anytime..
2 money- in order to pay for the treatment
Support- someonen has your back no matter what
Medicine- to make someone with chronic illness live longer
Stress- knowing that someone has a disease that can't be cured

The people mostly affected by any type of chronic illness are affected people because they are the one that have it and are unable to do the some of the same things as anybody else but are no different than the rest a challenge for them is like going to the store and walking to go and get the grocery's or even being able to get out of bed even the stairs could be a challenge.

1.)when people have a chronic illness the will sometimes go into a state of depression.
2.)One need for a family is money for medicine and drugs. Another one is time to go to the doctors or a hospital for a check up. One more is friends and family to comfort the person with the disease. And lastly people to help keep there emotional state up.

(1). It would be the same because not only are they just like us but they have purpose. Things would be different because they have it harder and they have to suffer through some difficult times.
(2). They would need money of course. They will also need the support from their family & friends to make them have comfort. Some challenges they might face are not having a vehicle to get them from their home to the doctors. Also another challenge is being to weak to do anything. For example; playing with kids and/or siblings, & going to get things for themselves like: water or food!

- A challenge; they might not have a vehicle to go places. ex. doctors
- Challenge; Might not have any support that they need
- Need; To understand that their loved one may not make it..
