Florisel She’s running to bathroom. She’s been doing this for the past three weeks. It’s always at the same time. Right after our video production class, right before lunch. I grab our stuff and head to the bathroom. She’s pacing in the bathroom when I get there. I know she won’t be able to control it no matter hard she tries. Jackie finally runs into the stall and I run in to hold her hair for her. I tell her that I’m going to get her a headband. By the time, I get one out of my bag she’s already done and looks like she’s on the verge of tears. She tells me that a little blood came out this time. I ask her if she wants me to get someone, but she says no. She heads to the sinks and rinses her mouth. “I think I’m going to tell my mom,” she says as she’s wiping her mouth with a paper towel. I hug her and we head to lunch. Gabriela …show more content…
Jackie came to me saying her stomach was hurting for the past couple weeks.
Said she couldn’t eat lunch at school without throwing up. I’m taking her to QuickCare today. I’m worried that her old sickness is coming back. She had GERD as a child. Her doctors told me it was due to stress, and that stress was making her throw up. When she was a kid, her stress was linked to her father being away. And it began to get better once we were able to visit him. We get to the clinic, and we are seated. I wish she would have told me earlier. I wish I could know what she was stressed about. I wish I knew where I could take her to make her feel
better. Nurse She comes in and I ask her what’s going on. She says she’s been feeling nauseous and has been throwing up for the past couple of weeks. She says she decided to come in today because she was worried about the small amount of blood that came out the last time. I tell her it’s normal for that to happen after some time of consistently vomiting. I tell her that all I can give her for now are some tablets that can reduce her from getting nauseous and throwing up. But I think I already know what she may be dealing with. Her mother is there and I don’t want to jump to any conclusions, so I just tell her that we need a urine sample. I hand her the cup and she heads out the door. Jackie She thinks I’m pregnant. I almost wanted to laugh right then and there, but I just grab the cup and head to the bathroom. She didn’t even let me finish my other symptoms. Yeah, the one that worries me the most is the vomiting. What freaked me out was the blood and that’s why I came here, but that’s not all I’ve been dealing with. Lately, especially at school, it feels like I can’t breathe when I walk down the hallways. Lunch freaks me out the most. Too many people all in once place. It’s like I’m holding my breathe. It’s not like asthma or anything. I can’t really explain it. I’m finished with the sample, and give it to the nurse. She takes it for “examination” and comes back saying she’s not sure what I have exactly. I’m sure she was surprised to find out that I wasn’t pregnant. She goes on and tells us that we should set up an appointment with our own doctor to further examine me to see what’s really wrong. Doctor She’s showing symptoms of agoraphobia.
Dally you should not even think about killing yourself it will not solve anything and will only make thing worse for everybody who cares about you. I know that you will not believe this and think that the world is horrible and is not worth living in but I promise you that there is still good in the world. I know that you will say that there is not and that I am naive, but I was not the only one to see this even Johnny saw it as he was dieing. He wanted me to try to point this out to you but I knew that you would need more than just me and Johnny's persuasion so I got word from all of the gang and some idea of how to make things better.

Amy Widener is a real estate agent, mother of two, and a sepsis survivor. In 2013 Amy was in the best shape of her life. She had just finished a Disney half marathon and was reaping the benefits of her intense training, little did she know that that training was going to save her life. One night she woke up with extreme abdominal pain and was rushed to the emergency room where she learned that she had a kink in her intestines. They performed emergency surgery and released her after a little bit of recovery. Instead of Amy’s pain getting better with recovery after her surgery, it got worse. This resulted in subsequent trips to the E.R. only to be sent home with more and more antibiotics. Two months after her surgery she went into the emergency

Based on Ella’s persistence on wanting to stay home during this time of her illness; I would suggest combining Ella’s natural medicine with having someone come and monitor her condition within her home. Ella’s family should seek guidance from a therapist or medical professional who can help them cope with this moment in life and their own illnesses that they suffer from. Due to the families’ high history of medical issues physically and mentally; each individual must battle with their own illnesses before they can openly understand why Ella make the choices she does. Ella has lived a life of her own choices and how she conducted her life has prolonged her life
Their behaviors are often caused by physical or emotional stress. When a caregiver cannot find the root cause of an infant’s distress, it can be challenging for the individual to sooth them. There are five main ways that a caregiver can solve most of an infant’s causes of stress; swaddling, a side or stomach position, shushing, swinging and sucking. However, my youngest niece Elizabeth has had repeated, uncomfortable intestinal distress. For Elizabeth the best ways to relieve her of this discomfort was to allow her to lay on her stomach, and gently massage her lower back. Or, have her lay on her back and gently massage her stomach until the discomfort passed. Her parents had to see a physician to get advice on what formulas she could drink, and what methods they could use to relieve her of this discomfort. In this case the cause of the challenging behavior was not environmental or a result of her caregivers, it was the result of a digestion

Louisiana has several magazines that focus on food and drink but I have to admit that one of my favorites is Louisiana Cookin'. They produce some of the most amazing recipes and spotlight places, dishes and drinks throughout the state of Louisiana.
Throughout our lives, we carry and value our own beliefs. As we face different challenges, we may be persuaded into making certain choices. However, no matter how convincing a person may be, in the end we always have the last word. Nobody likes being told what to do but we do like to hear other opinions for a different perspective. The proper way of using rhetoric is through a confident tone that is knowledgeable of their topic. The speaker should have integrity and be selfless in the sense that they are understanding towards their audience.

Ever since the fall, mankind has had a voracious desire for power and influence. People witness this desire within the walls of the Capitol Building when the media exposes backroom deals. It also springs up whenever a politician uses a podium to persuade people that he makes the world work. Politicians possibly rely on persuasion because they crave the power. However, persuasion is a manipulative, unBiblical tactic of forcing others to accept a point of view by all means necessary.
In last week’s Olympic games we bore witness to some returning beloved champions as well as some fresh faces! Let’s not forget why we participate in these games my fellow citizens! Every four years we gather at Olympia to participate in a series of games in honor of Zeus. The days leading up to the commencement of the games, champions must travel from all across the country and in order to do this safely, an Olympic Truce must be called. This is presumably one of the only times it is safe to travel across the country but let’s not get caught up on that! In order to participate in these strenuous games, each young man must pledge an oath to the beloved statue of Zeus that they have been in training for ten months. The training and dedication
Sometimes life can feel super mundane during the week for me. A couple times a year, I find myself just going through the motions and not feeling like I'm truly living each day. In face, I've never met one person that hasn't felt obligated to do something they didn't want to but had to because, well, we are adults and don't have the luxuries to have naps, snack time and play time anymore.
