Reporting on impairment
 

Mol notes (15) that an impaired person can serve as "[their] own ethnographer [...] someone who tells how living with an impaired body is done in practice"
 
"If you agree to go along with this possibility for a while, and listen to patient interviews in a realist mode, the question becomes 'what are the events people report on?'"
