Family reunification

so proud of my illegal parents, I am so proud they have raised me to be the person I am TODAY. I know what its like to have your mother ripped out of your house in the morning by ICE and have you little siblings crying their eyes out because their family is torn apart but those parents came back stronger, fighters and they proved that without them here those hundreds of people they help would have lost their jobs and their homes. I do see your point about closing the border and I do see the…

Old Dogs Is it inherent to associate the elderly with mothballs and bingo? Is it a natural occurrence in nature for the youth to regard their ancestors as merely artefacts of a generation long gone, remnants of a society brought up by different social values and morals. Where have those beliefs of decades ago gone, where the elderly were considered oracles of wisdom and knowledge? Has the Internet connected us so extensively to the point that we no longer need to know of our own history and…

My family went to church every Sunday for years until a reverend that my parents respected was asked to leave the congregation and when I decided to not be confirmed into the congregation as a teenager. I remember getting my first bible from my church after…

at the hospice since the last night when the ambulance had taken him away. (I no longer remember the name of the hospice for reasons pertaining to having repressed the memories because I have never shared this experience with anyone else outside my family.) I wondered if this was his last day. An afterthought I had each day for those last nine years my grandfather had spent the remainder of his life in a hospital bed in my family’s home after having suffered the debilitating effects of a stroke…

exceptional nature of her family form, and for any kinship relations within it. When Antigone argues for the irreplaceability of Polynices, then, she should not automatically be taken to be arguing for the general irreplaceability of a brother to a sister. Her family is, importantly, aberrant—according to Ismene when she recounts of her “[fathers] reputation in ruins, driven on the crimes he brought to light himself” (line 62-63). Thus, the monstrous nature of her family is the chief source of…

Respect as defined by Merriam-Webster Dictionary is stated as “a feeling of deep admiration for someone or something, elicited by their abilities, qualities, or achievements.” Respect is something you cannot teach through words, it is something you earn. After reading Wes Moore’s The Other Wes Moore I believe that success or failure in life is not a result of where you grow up, the education you receive or even the genes you are born with.

Those factors include the stability of the family, the support friends and loved ones give the mother, the risk level for depression, and the capacity to adjust and adapt to the unpredictability inherent in medical care. However, nurses control many important factors in maternity care. This paper begins with a fundamental point. In the…
