children's hospitals as a child life volunteer and a practicum student. I interacted with patients and families who have different cultures, languages, and religions, such as Hispanic population, and Amish and Mennonite populations. During my child life practicum, I observed the bereavement care provided for an Amish family. I realized that the grief process and bereavement could be different depending on cultures and religions. I learned how I can respect and support the individual differences…

addition, due to the abundance of unequivocal and ambiguous allusions alike, the book may not be a desirable read for individuals lacking a knowledge of political and popular culture in American during the late 1990s through 2000s; the aforementioned Amish are an example of such an individual. Those who are at least moderately interested in politics are very likely to enjoy the book. The wit and candor of Rich is stimulating, making the book difficult to set down. During the era in which…

A significant amount of concern from the anti-vaccination community has been for the MMR vaccine, more so than any other vaccine, due to its past association with the preservative thimerosal (Fombonne, Zakarian, Bennett, Meng, McLean-Heywood, 2006).

Hearing this directly from the source of my pain, I found closure through forgiveness. Through those months of suffering, I…

Today, Germans are considered one of the largest ethnic groups in the U.S. with 1 in 6 Americans being of German descent. The Amish and Mennonites groups settled in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Indiana, and are known today as the “Pennsylvania Dutch.” The Pennsylvania Dutch are well known for their excellent farming skills, large families, and a very simplistic way of life.…

in 2014, including one large outbreak of 383 cases, occurring primarily among unvaccinated Amish communities in Ohio.” This case may have a link to the one to the outbreak in Disneyland, since both outbreaks had an identical virus, however, no source was found.
