Fourth Doctor

must follow. Socrates counters this by asking Thrasymachus if a doctor is a treater of the sick, or a moneymaker, and if a captain is a ruler of sailors, or a sailor. Socrates goes on say that they are craftsmen or rulers because of what they do and who their subjects are. The reason that Socrates does this because Thrasymachus does in fact agree with him when he says that a doctor is a treater of the sick in the precise sense. If a doctor is a treater of the sick in the precise sense, and not a…

When I was reading and trying to imagine “Nacirema’s Body Ritual” for the first time I couldn’t relate with any aspect of the culture. I found the Nacirema’s cultural practices as estrange behaviors. This culture was very distant, unusual and different from mine. Magical and exotic traditions and rituals were unnecessary for me and I could not understand why these people were so devoted to them. “Several shrines”, “charm-box” and “holy-mouth-men” were new words for me that represented very…

because in the year of 2010 alone, I had already had strep throat about five or six times. It had been going on since we moved to Ohio, from Indiana in 2009, and it was just getting worse. My doctor was worried and we were sent to an ENT doctor, which stands for ears, nose and throat. I still know my doctor and go to get checked every six months. So from my tonsillectomy and recovery, here are the moments I remember. When we started driving on the morning of the surgery, I was exhausted because…

David’s father Wes Hayden, the local sheriff, decides that they should call his brother Frank, one of the town’s local doctors, to come over and check on her, Marie declines. Frank still comes with the request by Marie that Gail Hayden, David’s mother, stays in the room with her during the check-up. The decline leads to Gail Hayden…

Personal Narrative My personal narrative to me was when I went to Mexico. We weren't planning to go to Mexico ,but something really bad happened. One day my uncle called us to inform us that my grandma was really bad in the hospital that they weren't sure if she could of would survive. As soon as my dad hanged up the phone. He told us what was going on and he also told us that we are going to Mexico the next week. Because we couldn't go the next day because there was no way my parents…

Making a change in the world for the health care provided to Jehovah’s Witnesses didn’t become so personal until recently. My cousin who is a Jehovah’s Witness as well passed away last month after being put on the waiting list for liver transplant. She got sick two weeks before, but really didn’t think anything of it until she started having sharp stomach pain and was having trouble walking. She and her husband went to the hospital that night, there they tried to give her a blood transfusion,…

My first week of this summer program didn’t go as well as I expected. I felt scared and unfamiliar to this new environment. On the second day, I couldn’t stop throwing up. My head was in immense pain. I went to the health center with one of my mentors to talk to the Physician Assistant. She gave me a quick checkup, a list of foods I should eat, and pills for my head. I went to my Social Justice class for the last ten minutes. When I entered the class, everyone was sitting in a circle. Even…

broken because I could not feel them. The lady who had hit me called the ambulance and my parents, and then I was taken to the hospital. While at the hospital I had to get x-rays done to make sure that my legs were not broken, which they weren't. The doctor was saying how I was lucky that they were only scratched and bruised. I know that it was a miracle that saved me from getting too hurt. I was afraid to ride my bike for a while because…

The night out was cold, about four degrees Celsius. Men were huddled up together, while others kept their eyes out for the German troops. The first battle of Ypres didn’t go so well, our enemies had used a new weapon on the French troops. It was some sort of deadly chemical weapon. It was April 21st, 1915, so far we didn’t know what to call this war. It was enormous, and affected most of the world. Poor Belgium wasn’t even a part of the force, but Germany tried to attack France by going through…

Have you ever had a broken bone? One day I went camping with my Grandpa, Grandma and my sister. We were going to go to Mt.hood. We had to make a lot of stops and one of the stops we made was at a park. We stayed there for a long time because it was really fun.I went to go on the monkey bars and when I was on them I fell and hurt my arm. My arm hurt really bad and stung and my arm was really numb. My sister was sitting down in a chair, when she saw that I was hurt she started laughing really…
