Kaitlyn is diagnosed with a heart condition, which causes her heart rate to beat 200 beats per minute. This can occur randomly, when Kaitlyn is stressed, or when she is overheating. When this happens, her blood pressure drops and she passes out.
FISHER anchors during medical episodes to give Kaitlyn a focal point to redirect her attention. He also alerts her to changes in her heart condition, and provides behavior interruption when she is too focused on something. Thanks to FISHER, Kaitlyn’s medical episodes happen less frequently, and when they do, she is able to recover quicker.
