Casey court case, “which threatened to severely restrict women access to abortion” (Smith).

They turn instead to alternative treatments such as nutrition therapy and vitamin therapy among many others. Some (but not all) of these treatments have been shown to shrink tumors and prolong life. Always check with your doctor before beginning any unconventional therapies.

Although moral degradation among the youth in the United States portrays abortion as a vice that robs innocent infants the right to life, ethical medical practices may indicate abortion as a life-saving procedure. While there may exist unsafe and unprofessional means of medically performing abortion among adolescent girls, ethical medical practices may regulate the risks involved such as health complications and death, in order to promote the health benefits of abortion. Since there exist medically upright physicians motivated by a noble course, the adverse effects of abortion in young women may be controlled through professional services without much health risks and exploitation. Therefore, it is empirical that the high rate of fetal, teenage and youthful women death rate through unwanted pregnancy which leads to a disputing perception of abortion may be corrected through principled medical practices.

After four days, Samuel’s water broke. I was able to remain pregnant for eight more weeks. During this time I was daily told my son would die.

While radio- and/ or chemotherapeutic treatments are effective tools in treating certain cancers, a small population of cancer stem cells (CSC) can evade therapy which could be the reason for tumor recurrence and high rate of mortality. These CSC have the ability to bring the existence of new tumors and these are frequently found as multi-drug resistance (MDR) (Kawasaki et al., 2008). Chemotherapeutic drugs theoretically target the metastatic sites but current treatments do not exert significant therapeutic benefits in all cases (Soengas and Lowe 2003). Thus care should be taken to develop an alternative therapeutic strategy. Plant derived anticancer drugs are being considered more effective and safer for the patients, and do not have
