Abstract
This chapter discusses the consequences for a long-term sick individual when rehabiliation back to work fails and where she is objectified in a double-sided process. She is objectified first as a "sick body" before the medical authorities charged with producing health. Second she is objectified in terms of her rehabilitation to work, when given the responsibility to find the "healthy" part of her self capable of working, if even part-time.
