Meet the Learners: Alice Visits the Doctor: 1

Alice has always been afraid of visiting the doctor. Her family is aware of her fear and routinely plans a family gathering to encourage Alice on the safety need and even enjoyment in taking her annual trip to see her doctor. The goal of the family meeting is to try and ease her fears and to help her find courage as she anticipates her visit. Her mom dad and brother Bobby have all given their best shot at motivating Alice to embrace her doctor visits; none of their attempts have worked. However on this particular morning as she prepared for her visit something different was about to happen. Alices grandmother is known for telling the best stories and the one she revealed to the family this particular morning changed Alices perspective on doctor visits forever.Dr. Richards had grown accustomed to Alices reluctant visits and was pleasantly surprised to find her happy and enthusiastic about her visit on this particular day.
