Abortion: Pro-life - Reilyism Speech
... The aborted children. I dare the negative to PROVE that a
child in her mother's wound is alive!
Does the negative actually believe that a human being is alive when
and only when a human being has fully developed? If this is true, then
most of here are not alive. The human specie is only fully grown at
adulthood, many of us here are not adults yet -- and by that definition, it
wouldn't matter if your shot and killed on the street because "your not
fully developed". We are a stage in development -- teenager -- just like a
child is, just like a toddler is, just like an old man is, and just like a
aborted child is. There is no magical transformation that oc ...

Emergency Visits On The Rise
... urgent and seventeen percents are life threatening.
The reason for the increase in emergency room visits are because of an estimated forty-one billion Americans who does not have health insurance coverage and the senior citizen who is growing to use the emergency room. The psyche patient and homeless patients choose the emergency room over going to a walk-in clinic or doctor’s office because it’s more convenient for them, they rather not put up in the waiting room for hours, and for the homeless patients, the know that their chances of getting a real bed is higher if they come in the emergency room. Eighty-nine percent of all emergency patient thought they need to ...

The Controversial Issue Of Doctor-Assisted Suicide
... the decision.
If you are ever in a situation where you now you wil soon die the choice
whether or not to kill youself should be your own. I believe that
doctorassisted suicide should not be controlled by the government, but should be
apersonal choice based on the individual. Many people could not imagine living
in a hospital bed for the remainder of their lives. They would rather die with
dignity than live out the rest of their lives depandant on others. The
government thinks that they know what is best for the people. If everyone is
an individuall, how can the government know what is best for everyone. I feel
that people shold make up thir own minds about ...

Reproductive Technologies: Does Choice Mean Freedom?
... (Haylek 1960, p.12f). This subject is so socially charged
that a women could not possibly have true freedom of choice but a choice which
is basically decided for her, whether it be by the limited choices made
available to her by medical science or by the men which are directly involved
with them in the decision.
In order to truly understand this issue we must look at it's core,
reproductive technology. This is a vast area to discuss because it ranges from
artificial insemination to abortion to contraception to genetic engineering with
many area in between.
Artificial insemination is the introduction of sperm to an ovum
artificially either inside or outsid ...

Legalization Of Abortion
... for this
contradiction is that most people believe that the unborn infant is not a human,
but an organ or part of the woman's body, which would make the act of aborting
the child just the same as removing an appendix. This problem of when life
begins stems from the inconsistencies which come from the case of Roe v. Wade.
The Supreme Court interrupted that by the ninth and fourteenth amendments that
a woman has the right to an abortion. The court that day, however, did not rule
when a life begins for a human. If society is to assume that a fetus is a human
the second it leaves the uterus, then what is the unborn baby three minutes
from birth , a monkey. Wh ...

The AIDS Virus
... lightly.
Early on there was a struggle to learn about , but things soon became clearer, although not all is still known. When it was first discovered researchers had named it the T-lymphotropic virus, type III ( HTLV-III ), but later they renamed it HIV-1 because several more forms were discovered. After the virus enters the bloodstream, it destroys white blood cells ( T-lymphocytes). Since they play a big role in the immune system, their presence is very damaging. also infects another part of the immune system. Once the virus gets to the macrophages, it doesn't destroy them, but instead it stores it there. Later the macrophages carry the virus to other vital ...

The Hormones And Development Of One's Sex
... Jost believed that the fetal testis secret a hormone which causes such
a differentiation. In order to confirm this belief, he removed the gonads from
embryos, prior to the onset of phenotypic differentiation. All resulted in
female phenotypes. The male phenotype is induced and will not manifest if the
proper secretions are not made from the testis.
Although the article fails to mention how, "Jost deduced that two secretions
from the fetal testis are essential for male development - Mullerian-inhibiting
substance and androgen." The mechanism in which spermatogenic tubules form
Mullerian-inhibiting substance is still unclear to scientists. Problems with
improp ...

Obstetrician Vs. Midwife
... is a catalyst for the mother's body chemistry, helping the laboring woman use her energy wisely.
The midwife's philosophy is different from the obstetrician's. The obstetrician makes things happen; the midwife lets things happen. The doctor trusts technology and is wary of nature. The midwife trusts nature and is cautious about technology. The obstetrician fears a birth may go wrong. The midwife expects the birth will go right.
"Midwife" is a word that comes from the old English words mit wif, literally "with woman." A midwife is a person who is "with woman," especially during the period of pregnancy, birth, and caring for the newborn. Some people also use the ...

Malpractice Or Poor Judgement?
... money in order to insure themselves adequately. Insurance
companies have caught on as well, raising the price of malpractice insurance on
most doctors. For instance, a doctor who would have had to pay Rs. 125 annually
now has to pay up to Rs. 1500. These costs will only be passed along to the
patients in the long run, and the condition is only going to worsen. Take for
example the United States, where surgeons annually pay an average of $75,000 on
insurance premiums. On top of these premiums, doctors who practice very
defensively add as much as $21 billion US to the health care bill every year.
Twenty percent of the tests prescribed by doctors were not necessar ...

Physician's Responsibility
... even from his wife. Everything that is discussed in the doctor's office is confidential, therefore, the doctor has an obligation to every patient's privacy. But the husband can not ask the doctor to lie to the pilot's wife or ask the doctor to do something illegal as to prescribing her antibiotics that would also cure her gonorrhea. The doctor only can cure her for what he knows that she have. The doctor could suggest to wife that she should get a blood test done too as for a physical. But he will have to get consent testing for HIV. The only other thing the doctor can do is talk to he husband, to persuade him to tell his wife on his own accord. Another reas ...
