.... died because of this. Its very first outbreak was really in 1967, with monkeys and thirty-one people died before it was identified in 1976. The Ebola then occurred in 1995, when a patient in a hospital thought he had malaria. Ebola was also discovered in the United States in 1989. A shipment of African Green and Rhesus monkeys arrived in Virginia from the Philippines. The one hundred and forty-nine workers that had worked with the monkeys were not effected by the virus at all, although two have developed antibodies from the Ebola Reston. Many other countries have been affected with this deadly disease and are spreading rapidly. Like many things, .....

.... is one of the most debilitating and baffling mental illnesses known today. This disorder is characterized by “a dysfunction of the thinking process, such as hallucinations, delusions, and withdrawal from the outside world�(Bower, 1). is a biologically based brain disease. “The most recent advances in brain chemicals- dopamine and serotonin- in those who suffer from �(Bower,1). Also scientists believe is caused by poor parenting of weak will power. “This disease makes it difficult for a person to tell the difference between real and imagined experiences, to think logically, to express normal emotional responses or to behave normally .....

.... wholly dissimilar to either wakefulness or sleep, during which attention is withdrawn from the outside world and is concentrated on mental, sensory, and physiological experiences. When a hypnotist induces a trance, a close relationship or rapport develops between operator and subject. The responses of subjects in the trance state, and the phenomena or behavior they manifest objectively, are the product of their motivational set; that is, behavior reflects what is being sought from the experience. Most people can be easily hypnotized. The depth of trance, however, will vary from a light state close to waking, to a profound state of somnambulism. .....

.... countless hours and millions of dollars it has not led to a drug that can cure infection with the virus or to a vaccine that can prevent it. With being the leading cause of death among adults, individuals are now taking more precautions with sexual intercourse, and medical facilities are screening blood more thoroughly. Even though HIV (Human Immune deficiency Virus) can be transmitted through sharing of non sterilize needles and syringes, sexual intercourse, blood transfusion, and through most bodily fluids, it is not transmitted through casual contact or by biting or blood sucking insects. Causes HIV is primarily a sexually transmitted disease, it .....

.... of treating, diagnosing, and preventing disease is known as the field of Medicine. In ancient times Medicine was a vague field, mostly incorporated with magic and superstition, it was not like our modern medical system of scientific analysis.  Early Amputation Tools Shown here are the contents of a case of amputation instruments dating from about 1800. Within medicine the most crucial component, besides the professional Doctors, Nurses and Pharmacologists are the drugs that make it possible for millions of humans everyday to overpower their ailments. Within .....

.... with the mental health system appeared to be marked by power and control issues. "Consumers/ex-patients often report a feeling of "invisibility"; they sense that their views and desires do not matter (Carling, 1995, p.79 )." The commission's report (1995) spoke of several incidences where Mr. Gordon eluded to his desire for autonomy. Mr. Gordon did not wish to live in a supervised setting. Mr. Gordon did not wish to attend group day treatment settings. Mr. Gordon did not wish to use medication in the treatment of his mental health disorder. Without medication his behavior was deemed unacceptable and did not permit him the opportunity to .....

.... vena cava. When the right auricle contracts, it forces the blood through an opening into the right ventricle. Contraction of this ventricle drives the blood to the lungs. Blood is prevented from returning into the auricle by the tricuspid valve, which completely closes during contraction of the ventricle. In its passage through the lungs, the blood is oxygenated, that is, then it is brought back to the heart by the four pulmonary veins, which enter the left auricle. When this chamber contracts, blood is forced into the left ventricle and then by ventricular contraction into the aorta. The bicuspid, or mitral, valve prevents the blood from flowing ba .....

.... this type could be fatal quickly. The body cannot get enough energy from tissue glucose so it starts to break down stored fat. With this people loose a lot of weight and they have fatigue. Your blood becomes acidic and respiration becomes abnormal. People usually die from diabetic coma until they figured out how to use insulin therapy. In both forms it could cause a kidney disease from high blood sugar levels; bad sight from blood vessels in eyes rupturing, less blood going to the limbs could make them have to cut them off. They have high blood pressure which increases heart attacks and strokes in diabetes too. Type II This type is found .....

.... I found that it may be caused by many different factors. There are conflicting ideas between sources. The most recent book I used was Diabetes by Carol Semple printed in 1996. On page seventeen, he states that Type II is hereditary. In my oldest source, Diabetes by Sarah Riedman printed in 1980, she stated on page five that Type II is not a hereditary disorder. I concluded that Type II is hereditary because all the newer sources support that fact. In my source from the Ames Center for Diabetes Center (written in 1995) Jackson and Weir stated that the gene, or genes, responsible for the most common kinds of remain a mystery. Scientists .....

.... Euthanasia say that anyone trying to remove a life from the earth, before it is ready to go is playing God. Another argument against the idea of Voluntary Euthanasia is the difficulty of doctors to accurately diagnose a terminal illness. They are basically saying that the medical profession, despite some public opinion, is not infallible, and does make some mistakes. Also, if the sickness is cancer, it may go into remission, and then the person, if they were euthanised, would have died prematurely for no reason. The next argument against the idea of Voluntary Euthanasia is the ambiguity of a valid consent from the terminally ill patient. Many drug .....
