Case StudyJason is a 40-year-old airline pilot who has recently begun to experience chest pains. The chest pains began when Jason signed his final divorce papers, ending his 15-year marriage. He fought for joint custody of his three children, ages 12, 14 and 10, but although he wants to be with them more frequently, he only sees them every two weeks. This schedule is, in great part, a result of his employe's announcement that budget constraints would result in layoffs. Jason worries that without his job he will be unable to support his children and lose the new townhouse that he purchased. Jason's chest pains are becoming more frequent and he fears that he may be dying.
