Doctor Assisted Suicide
.... not allow physician assisted suicide. For example, people like Dr. Kevorkian has been under much scrutiny for assisting in deaths. I don’t necessarily agree with his bedside manor and his “icy okey-doke” (Goodman, 495) But when somebody decides to take his own life, it is up to the individual to do so.
Another problem is the moral issue. Is assisted suicide moral or immoral? If a person is terminally ill and is going to die from the illness, then the only thing to do is to take his or her own life to end suffering. Take for example, if somebody has Alzheimer’s disease, or Parkinson’s disease, that person will eventually lose the .....

Decisions About Abortion
.... anything at all, but its one very good perspective of it.
I also believe that the pregnant woman should decided for herself whether
or not she wants to abort her child. If the circumstances were on me, and
it was not my fault that I got pregnant because I was raped, and I felt
that I wasn’t ready for a baby, then I would most likely abort it. Only if
it was still an egg and it wasn’t developed. But if it was beginning to
develop, I wouldn’t abort it, because it would have a pulse, and if I did,
it would be murder. Say if I had unprotected sex, and was pregnant, then I
would not abort it. Why would I abort a human life when it wa .....

The Meaning Of Abortion
.... half
million babies a year (Willke vii). Many countries have followed our
decision on the abortion issue and some of these include Canada, England,
and France. Other countries still believe abortion should be illegal, they
include Germany, Ireland, and New Zealand. Although many believe that
abortion is a women's choice, abortion should be banned because its immoral
and life begins at conception.
Abortion is the choice of a women whether or not she want's to
receive one. Under the 14th Amendment's "personal liberty" women are given

arguments of the unfairness that is involved in the laws in regards to
abortion for instance in America if you pay taxes your tax money could be
used to help fund abortion in the united states . and she also talked about
how recent medical advancements have spread light on the reality that the
unborn child is not just a mass of cells and tissue, this hypothesis was
used to explain the anti- life message that the fetus is not human and
does not deserve the rights to protect but when this idea and most abortion
laws were being advanced there was not technological advances to show this

Abortion
.... of Americans
approve of abortion in cases of rape, or when the fetus is abnormal or
likely to suffer a disability later in life.7
Pro-life “supporters” oppose abortion because they believe a fetus
is a person from the moment of conception. A 22% minority of the United
States population oppose legal abortion according to a 1985 Newsweek poll.8
The anti-abortion groups include the National Right to Life Committee,
March for Life, and the Pro Life League.9 The Roman Catholic church and
fundamentalist Protestant churches oppose abortion.10 The anti-
abortionists believe that the fetus is entitled to protection of life in

Antibiotic Resistance
.... way to avoid the
effects of the drug.
One antibiotic that will always have a long lasting effect in history is
penicillin. This was the first antibiotic ever to be discovered. Alexander
Fleming was the person responsible for the discovery in 1928. In his
laboratory, he noticed that in some of his bacteria colonies, that he was
growing, were some clear spots. He realized that something had killed the
bacteria in these clear spots, which ended up to be a fungus growth. He
then discovered that inside this mold was a substance that killed bacteria.
It was the antibiotic, penicillin.
Penicillin became the most powerful germ-killer k .....

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
.... protective hairs called cilia help keep the dust and other
pollutants from entering your lungs. These airways end in tiny air sacs
known as alveoli. The alveoli transfer oxygen from the air you inhale
directly into the bloodstream.
Chronic bronchitis is one of the major lung diseases that underlie COPD.
Chronic bronchitis often develops in people over age 40 who are or used to
be moderate to heavy smokers. In chronic bronchitis, the bronchial tubes
have been constantly irritated by inhaled cigarette smoke, air pollution,
or other harmful substances. After the bronchial tubes have been irritated
for a long measure of time, their .....

For Information On The Medical Uses Of Marijuana
.... the safest
therapeutically active substances know to man.'' [4]
Opponents of legal cannabis access would have us believe that there is not
enough research available to determine its safety. Nothing could be
further from the truth. Cannabis is one of the most thoroughly researched
drugs in history, and the evidence gathered over the centuries clearly
proves that it is safe:
* The Indian Hemp Drugs Commission Report (1894): an exhaustive seven-
volume, 3,281-page report that concludes: "Moderate [cannabis] use
produces practically no ill effects." [5][6][7]
* The Panama Canal Military Study (1916-1929), amassing extensive data o .....

The Grieving Process
.... diminish as you begin to express and share your feelings about your
loss with others.
Following feelings of shock or disbelief, you gradually be¬ gin to realize
that the loss is real. Then you begin to ex¬ perience deeper and deeper
implications of the loss. Anger or depression usually follows. This is a
frequent response to a perception of injustice or powerlessness. During
this phase the most common question asked is “Why me”, A signifi¬ cant loss
can threaten a person’s basic belief about them¬ selves or about life in
general. You find yourself question¬ ing how a merciful and loving God
could have allowed this loss t .....

Aspartame And Olestra: Will We Buy The Bull?

but maybe he will be allowed to eat the French fries to go with it if they
are prepared with Olean (Olestra). Olean is a fat derivative that
chemically resembles real fat, with the exception that is much bigger,
cannot be absorbed by the organism and therefore, passes right through the
digestive tract. It will also give a sense of normality to a diabetic when
they want to have a chocolate bar. Sure, special chocolates are available,
as well as carob bar, but these substitutes taste nothing like the real
deal, with my personal experience testifies to that. We have now developed
new sweeteners that do .....

Myotonic Dystrophy

generation to generation. Amplification is frequently observed after
parent-to-child transmission, but extreme amplifications are not
transmitted through the male line. This explains anticipation and the

offspring of affected women.
Congenital Myotonic Dystrophy
Congenital myotonic dystrophy is the early childhood form of
myotonic dystrophy (also known as Steinert's disease). Usually in myotonic
dystrophy the symptoms begin to show in childhood or later in life, but
symptoms of congenital myotonic dystrophy are evident from birth. It occ .....
