Body as a value in the experience of a disabled person: an axiological analysis of a text published on the website niepełnosprawni.pl/wszystko o niepełnosprawności

Journal Title: Physiotherapy Quarterly - Year 2016, Vol 24, Issue 1

Abstract

The objective of this elaboration is to perform an axiological analysis of an opinion of a person with a stoma published on the website niepełnosprawni.pl/wszystko o niepełnosprawności. The analysis will show how the author experienced her own body in various contexts during several years of her disease, e.g. in her family, peer group, sport, hospital, professional work, and moreover – how this kind of narration can be used in the therapeutic process.
