However, with rehabilitation provided by Physical therapists and their assistants we’re able to decrease the functional deficits that accompany a CVA. My patient is a 41 year old male who had been brought to our acute care hospital due to a…
I did not realize what was happening until after the warm colored leaves had disappeared beneath the snow, quite like my old self had disappeared beneath my new self. It was December and, I had always hated the winter months. That winter was supposed to bring record-breaking cold weather, and living in northern Illinois meant frostbite galore. All I did those days was sit in a box (I’ve called school) for eight hours, and get home with eight more hours of homework. At least I had homework to get…

It is one of the many ligaments that holds the knee joint in place, and keeps the knee from buckling. “About two-thirds of injuries happen during movements like twisting, pivoting, or moving sideways, while the rest are caused by direct contact with an object or another person.” (Humphries) There is a wide variety of why the ACL tears.

I’m currently losing a fight to my pants, they're too tight and refuse to not be inside out. I'm dreading another day of school. The Corgan and Stoley volcano is about to erupt. I just hope I'm not one of the people that gets engulfed in flames. This weekend, bothered the fuck out of me, Clyde pestered me about Thomas the whole time at work. I am an informant, but leave me alone man, after I tell you that I don't know. My phone vibrates on my desk scaring the shit out of me, I almost drop…
Learning is a process of training hard in life. Learning is not only for the resources, but to make beautiful personalities, and give people the success in life. All begin with the good grades in school, and a graduation from the colleges. That lead to a bigger problem, in which students may cheat in colleges, disregarding the effects it has on them and others around and the punishments with consequences they may face due to their actions. It is a persisted problem in the education, not within…
Lukas put down his worn down pencil in between the pages of his most recent journal entry. He carefully shut the journal making sure no pages would unnaturally crease due to recklessness. He lifted himself up from his writing desk slowly. His neck and back aching from being hunched over his journal, scrawling in their history and his opinions. A task worth the pain. He slowly extended his arms and rolled his head in attempt to loosen his stiff joints. He walked out of his cabin, recruits passing…

and to serve. Though servitude and sufferance can, at times, imply submission, Peters, author of “Julian of Norwich’s Showings and the Ancrene Riwle: Two Rhetorical Configurations of Mysticism,” argues prayer and spiritual suffering is not another buckling of the lady’s knee beneath pressures of man but rather a way to help free “women’s bodies and turn their minds to contemplate the compassion they feel for others through God...” (Peters, p. 347). In other words, this new way of understanding…
It is a well known fact that living in San Francisco is expensive. Apartment rent in a decent 1 or 2 berooms in a good neighborhood costs fortune, there are tons of nice but expensive restaurants and all the nice small and unique boutiques sell three digits and four digits shoes and dresses.
