The book is called Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers, by Mary Roach. Why choose this book? One reason for choosing this book is that death is very scary but also interesting. Everyone always is afraid of death of course that when it is in front of everyone what will they do? Some people will run away or get scared. Some will be the brave or just surgeons. Surgeons almost every day have to deal with many people but some are surgeons for cadavers. After reading the book it wants to show…

In the case, When Living Feels Like Dying: Ethical Decision Making with a Depressed Dialysis Client, which is described in the roleplaying description. Reamer page 51 tells us that the purpose of the NASW code of ethics gives us an idea of the code’s main function as well as the principle for dealing with ethical matters or dilemmas while in the human service profession. These ethics have a wide array of ethical principles and allows us to reflect the profession’s core values by having ethical…

Have you ever thought about killing yourself? “Assisted suicide is a controversial medical and ethical issue based on the question of whether, in certain situations, medical practitioners should be allowed to help patients actively determine the time and circumstances of their death” (Lee, Stingle). I support assisted suicide because it stops suffering, it is humane, the grief period is shortened, and the cost to the family will decrease. All of these reasons and more are reasons why I support…

Sounds sad but sometimes killing yourself is the only way out. Suicide is a very sensitive topic that a lot of people don’t like to talk about. I on the other hand feel like it’s important to talk about these things; although for my family they don’t like to talk about it because four years ago my aunt decided to take her life. The official definition of suicide is, it is an act or instance of taking one’s own life voluntarily and intentionally. There are several reasons why a person would take…

When the reaper snuffs out a life he takes with him many things. Some of the many things that death takes with him is the hope for that person to do something amazing in this world, the connections that the deceased person has made throughout their life, and lastly the knowledge collected throughout the life of that person. Age has a huge role to play with death because with different ages comes different feelings of loss. The death of the young (usually between 0-18 years old) carries a…

During this course Human Development, various subjects have discussed among the peer group. There is passage of scripture that stands out in support of this topic, I looked up and saw a horse whose color was pale green. Its rider was named Death, and his companion was the Grave.” (Revelations 6:8, NLT) Every culture on earth has a different philosophy of death and how to deal with the subject of death and how to face it. Facing death can be viewed from an intellectual, cultural, and spiritual…

wants to receive treatment, and they want to try to battle their disease, then that is great. However, if they no longer want to fight, or deal with the pain, then they should be able to make the choice to die peacefully. In the article “Should Euthanasia or Physician-Assisted Suicide Be Legal”, written by ProCon.org, Stephen Hawking is quoted saying “I think those who have a terminal illness and are in great pain should have the right to choose to end their lives and those that help them should…

Jax stood in front of the metal tube that now contained the woman he now knew he loved. She was dead, well, not truly dead, she was cryogenically frozen. They had pumped her bloodstream full of chemicals and dropped her temperature down to below negative 40 degrees Fahrenheit. They would wait until they had some way to save her life. Jax only hoped that they hadn't been too late and there was no way to save her. Probabilities were high that she would never be saved. Tears had dried up long ago,…

Ever since the late 1930s, euthanasia has been a very sore subject both for the courts and American society. The question of whether people who suffer from terminal illnesses should end their life early sticks in the mind of doctors and psychologists alike. In my opinion, voluntary active euthanasia is morally wrong and is nothing more than voluntary homicide. However, when the person who suffers from the terminal illness is no longer able to make decisions for themselves, and they no longer…

it became a problem because this type of ritual is beyond the American culture which conflicted with the laws that they paid no attention to. Another conflict was the medical procedure of the American doctors and the spiritual healing process the Lee’s traditionally believe can help cure diseases or illnesses. How both cultures define epilepsy is the same which is a dangerous condition but the treatment styles are opposite. The doctors see the potential in prescribing the necessary medications…
