I have had friends who were having symptoms, had all kinds of tests and were taking all kinds of medications and when they stopped consuming Aspartame, the symptoms disappeared. Written by Lisa Zak Physician Credentialer University Pediatric Associates, Inc. Women & Children's Hospital of Buffalo:
In October of 2001, a friend's sister started getting very sick. She had stomach spasms and she was having a hard time getting around. Walking was a major chore. It took everything she had just to get out of bed she was in so much pain. By March 2002, she had undergone several tissue and muscle biopsies and was on 24 various prescription medications. The doctors could not determine what was wrong with her. Because of her pain and sickness, she was sure she was dying. She put her house, bank accounts, life insurance, etc., in her oldest daughter's name, and made sure that her younger children were to be taken care of. She also wanted a last hoorah, so she planned a trip to FL (basically in a wheelchair) for March 22nd. On March 19th her brother called to ask how her most recent tests went, and she said they didn't find anything on the test, but they
>>> believe she had MS. He recalled an E-mail article I might have sent to him and asked his sister if she drank diet pop? She told him that she did. As a matter of fact, she was getting ready to crack one open that moment. He told her not to open it, to stop drinking the diet pop, and then E-mailed her the aspartame articles sister called him within 32 hours after the phone conversation and told him she had stopped drinking the diet pop AND she could walk! The muscle spasms went away. She said she didn't feel 100% better, but she sure felt a lot better. She told him she was going to her doctor with this article and would call him when she got home. Well, she called, and said her doctor was amazed! He is going to call all of his MS patients to find out if they had consumed artificial sweeteners of any kind. In a nutshell, she was being poisoned by the Aspartame in the diet soda and literally dying a slow and miserable death. When she got to FL March 22nd, all she had to take was one pill, and that was a pill for the Aspartame poisoning.
It’s hard for a family to go through this and the terminally ill want to save their families from as much heart break as they can.
The Odyssey is an epic home it was written by homer in the classical Greek. The story is about the main character Odysseus a Trojan war hero and his journey to return home to Ithaca conflict and obstacles are throughout the story and affect different characters many of the characters experience some form of reciprocity by the end of the epic and get what they
Thalidomide is 90 years of aspartame, a.k.a. NutraSweet, Finn, Zero Cal, and other trademarks. The text of the American researcher Barbara Alexander Mullarkey was aired on the Internet by Betty Martini and his original can be found in http://www.dorway.com. This is a free radical for the Portuguese, made by me, Beatriz Medina in July 1996.
Throughout the Odyssey there are many themes that Homer uses to portray different people and events. To name a few, there are the themes of Betrayal and Revenge,Greed and Glutony, Hospitality, Role of the Gods and Wealth (the amount of money one had determined the status he held in the greek society, and this explains Odysseus's love for plunder).
This case comes down to: Does the written living will or the proxy named in the living will have the louder voice in end-of-life care discussions? In this case, the voice of the proxy won. In the best cases, such decisions should be made together at the time of the creation of the living will with both the patient and the proxy. If this occurred, the son would be more on the same page with the concerns for his mother’s end of life care. Another way of solving the issue of the possibility of the woman’s life changing over the past seven years, would be having a way for the woman to acknowledge that thoughts are still the same by updating/resigning the living will
She was a 29 year old newlywed with a terminal brain tumor that lived in California. After learning about her tumor she had several procedures done to attempt to stop the progression of the growth of the tumor. Unfortunately, not only did the tumor not slow down, it actually became more aggressive. The doctors gave Brittany six months to live. The doctors presented her with options of treatment where the hair of her scalp would be singed off and her head left with first-degree burns, among others. She had to weigh her options and determine her quality of life. Her and her husband came to the difficult conclusion that there was no treatment that would save her life and all the treatments that were suggested to her would destroy the quality of the time she had left. She did not want to put her family through the nightmare of watching her decline and suffer on hospice and so she decided that death with dignity is what she wanted to
Honor is a primary theme throughout The Odyssey. This honor culture is about the value of your name or reputation, how that affects your family, and a relation between honor and manners. While the entire text is chalk rich with examples, the encounter with the Cyclops, the Paeacian games, and the slaughter of the suitors are the clearest examples. The honor culture seen in The Odyssey is one that continues today in various cultures throughout the world. While many of the examples shown are of a violent nature, honor does not always correlate to violence. In fact, a strong honor culture may inoculate against random violence due to the need to have a certain reputation.
End-of-life care in the United States is often fraught with difficult decisions and borne with great expense. Americans are often uncomfortable discussing death and
Safety is focused on reducing the chance of harm to staff and patients. The 2016 National Patient Safety Goals for Hospitals includes criteria such as using two forms of identification when caring for a patient to ensure the right patient is being treated, proper hand washing techniques to prevent nosocomial infections and reporting critical information promptly (Joint Commission, 2015). It is important that nurses follow standards and protocols intending to patients to decrease adverse
Jerry Fensterman, in his essay "I See Why Others Choose to Die", talks about how he can understand why terminal ill people after so long in pain with no hope to cure choose to end their life sooner than expected. Fensterman, who was a dignose with cancer, says "I know now how a feeling, loving, rational person could choose death over life, could choose to relieve his suffering as well as that of his loved ones a few months earlier that would happen naturally." I agreed with the writers point of view, and I can also understand why someone would make this type of decisions. It is not only physically devastating for the whole family to go through this type of situations, but it could also be economically damaging, and not to mention the stress that is slowly draining everyone around.
Her immobilization started rapidly declining, deteriorating her health, we checked her into the hospital where she got continuous round the clock care. As family came to say their final goodbyes before death came to take her, she held on for as long as possible till everyone left and it was just immediate family. Doctor whispered, “Kikki, you don’t look to good. Why don’t you go home to rest.” Later received a call already knowing that the cancer defeated her and my life would never feel and be the same, at almost 3am she passed. I entered the room and could not bear the fact that my greatest role model is no longer with me, sitting for hours crying sent home again.
When one thinks of the evolution of nursing, several noteworthy women come to mind, yet one stands out, Florence Nightingale. In Notes on Nursing, Nightingale says “…put the patient in the best conditions for nature to act upon him.” (1859, p.75) She established standards that reformed the industry. For example; her practices of sanitation and aseptic methods led to a decrease in hospital mortality rates. By keeping records of care given, techniques used and the outcomes; by utilizing these records, she implemented documentation and evidence-based practice. She started the ball rolling on the transition of nursing from a belittled trade to the profession it is now proclaimed to be. Nightingale, in conjunction with other
In The Odyssey, the hierarchical relationship between both gods and humans is a key aspect in the overarching unity that is the epic. These can both be in contrast with each other and it can been seen that there are similarities between the types of people we meet in The Odyssey as well as the gods we meet also. Homer uses this theme and system of hierarchy to effectively display aspects of his worlds though The Odyssey. The main features that help prove this point are: that society within The Odyssey is hierarchical, the upper class and the servants (with equivalent gods) are focussed on, (Hierarchy of Greek Gods, 2015) and finally, the gods parallel their respective opposites on earth. These features help to show Homers world of The Odyssey.
This can be an internal and/or external environment. The internal environment is vital to healing, because the patients’ thoughts, emotions, and spirits have a direct effect on their bodies, their choices, and their relationships (Sakallaris, MacAllister, Voss, Smith, & Jonas, 2015). It is imperative that nurses understand and be aware of the connectivity between mind, body, and spirit, as well as its importance in promoting the healing process. The external environment creates a positive physical environment that cohesively supports the mind, body, and spirit to find peace, rest, and vitality (Sakallaris, MacAllister, Voss, Smith, & Jonas, 2015). Nurses should make every effort to create an environment that will aid in alleviating stress or preventing harm as well as a supportive space for proper recovery and healing to occur. Families and communities are another example of the external environment. A community support system can be extremely helpful in improving patient care and managing healthcare costs. Communities can help prevent health problems from happening or re-occurring by implementing educational programs, developing policies, and administering services. It is paramount that a patient to be in an environment that is conducive to his or her
Homer clearly and precisely depicts the religion and the ethics of the Achian and Trojan societies in The Iliad. During the time of the Trojan war, religion played an important role in the societies. Sacrifice, prayer, and rituals were all equally significant, and the superiority of the gods and the fates above humans was a standard of society. The gods were sacred deities to whom one had to bestow honor and respect. Within the society, honor, glory, and fame were desperately sought by warriors striving to achieve enduring notoriety. One's word represented a considerable commitment to be acted upon. Religion and ethics are prominently displayed in the characters throughout The Iliad due to their importance in Greek and Trojan society.
