John Q Tough Decisions

But, as days passed, then weeks, Michael is filled with guilt as many of the people he cared about are dragged into the situation and end up getting hurt. Still, Michael was too afraid to come forward and admit the truth to everyone. Eventually, as the police investigation progressed, the evidence drew them closer to Michael, and he finally realized had no choice but to turn himself in to keep everyone he cared about from getting hurt even more. If Michael would have listened to his father in the beginning and waited instead of carelessly shooting into the sky, things might have been different. The bullet might have landed somewhere else, and he would not have killed

Rebecca Nurse was one of the most respected people in town and known for being a good person. In the play, Rebecca shows good pride when she was accused of witchcraft. When Rebecca Nurse was accused of killing Putnam’s babies she said, “let us go to God for the cause of it. There is prodigious danger in the seeking of loose spirits. I fear it, I fear it. Let us rather blame ourselves and—” (Act I 26). Rebecca prided herself in believing that Goody Putnam’s accusations of her were false. Throughout the play the accusations of witchcraft became more and more serious once they started punishing people. Though if one confessed and turned in other people, they would be safe from hanging. Goody Nurse prided herself into not giving up people’s names and lying just to save herself, “why, it is a lie, it is a lie; how may I damn myself? I cannot, I cannot” (Act IV 129). Even though Rebecca Nurse was put to hang, she kept with her morals and did not give up other people’s names. She stuck with what she truly believed in even when her life was on the line. Miller showed good pride through the acts of Goody Nurse because she held pride in her beliefs and did not give up on them even when her life was at stake.

Decisions are what direct a average person's life. Some decisions are easy some are hard. But that’s the way of life and how it works.

John Quincy Archibald (Denzel Washington) and his wife Denise witness their young son Michael collapse at his baseball game. After a series of tests at the hospital, John is informed by Dr. Raymond Turner (James Woods) and Rebecca Payne (Anne Heche), a hospital administrator, that Michael has an enlarged heart and will need a transplant. However because the company he works for dropped John from full-time to part-time, his health insurance has been changed and the new policy does not cover the surgery, leaving them to raise $250,000 in order to get their son's

The main question surrounding the John Quelch controversy was whether he and his crew committed an act of piracy or privateering during their voyage across the Atlantic. Historian Mark Peterson specifies that while Quelch was leading a crew of privateers, they had attacked Portuguese merchant ships at some point after Britain had signed a peace treaty with Portugal, thereby making these attacks count as acting against the King’s will (John Quelch video). Consequently, Quelch and his comrades were executed for committing such a treasonous act, but based on the evidence (or rather, lack of evidence) relating to their crimes, that punishment might have been too harsh for this particular group of merchants.

Rebecca Nurse would always try to keep a good reputation for many different situations and/or reasons. She was very truthful throughout the whole story, and also stayed true to what she believed in/knew. For example, when Abigail was extending her story so she wouldn’t get hanged, Rebecca Nurse knew that she was just pretending and continued to say that during court trying to protect other people that were being accused. She was also accused of killing the Putnam’s seven babies but knew she didn’t kill them always showed that she’d rather tell the truth and die, then live her whole life

Rebecca and I both refuse to admit to something that is not true. Rebecca was accused of witchcraft. She does not believe in witchcraft and she refuses even though she knew it might lead to her getting hanged, she insisted on sticking to what she believed was right. Also she was not going to take the blame for the death of Mrs. Putnam’s children when she was not responsible. Nobody was going to change her mind. If I thought something was not right there is nothing that change my mind. Nobody would be able to make me say or do anything different. If I did not do something, I would not take the blame for it. The person who did something wrong should be in trouble not someone who is innocent. The last trait that stood out to me that Rebecca Nurse and I have in common is our honesty.

Sixty-Eight year old Robert Rubio from Fresno California was diagnosed with an unknown lung disease that was not curable. The doctors told him that the only way to live was to get a lung transplant. To get a lung, it can take several years and Robert said he would wait so he could live longer to be with his family. After months of waiting in a hospital 169 miles away from his family, he decided that he didn’t want to wait for a transplant anymore, he wanted to come home to his family so he can die in peace. Months after his decision, Robert is much better than he was in the hospital and much happier. Even though this story does not relate to assisted suicide, people with a sickness that is not curable should not turn to doctor-assisted suicide, they should have hope for the future because you never know what’s going to happen.

For the most part, no two people have the same opinion of healthcare workers. Healthcare workers themselves, such as doctors and nurses, have a completely different view on how they should act and what they do. “The Yellow Wallpaper” by Charlotte Perkins Gilman is a perfect example of how a doctor’s view on healthcare workers differs from other peoples. In Gilman’s story John, the narrators husband and doctor, approaches his healthcare practice differently than the narrator, the one who is sick, thinks it should be approached. In Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s “The Yellow Wallpaper” John believes to be a good healthcare provider he needs to focus on the medical side of the case and leave the social aspects out; however, the narrator recognizes

Although, Rebecca was adored by many, she only loved herself and cared only for herself. She was also good at manipulating people. Even Maxim was unable to recognize her manipulation and became overwhelmed by the thought of the actions she was choosing that he killed her. While Maxim is explaining the death of his first wife, he mentions one thing Rebecca told him, “If I had a child, Max, neither you, nor anyone in the world, would ever prove that it was not yours. It would grow up here in Manderly, bearing your name.

In the movie, John Q was a blue collar worker who worked very hard and at times struggled to make ends meet. One day his only son got sick, and doctors found out that he was in need of a new heart. John didn’t worry too much because he had insurance

What started out to be a pleasant dream, turned into a very unsettling night. She knew it was the children trying to tell her about their kidnapping, but she couldn't figure out what they were showing her. Rebecca started searching for information about what she'd dreamt as soon as she woke up. She soon discovered the data she's looking for wasn't public record. She thought about going to the police but was afraid they'd think she'd lost her marbles. With nowhere else to turn, she decides to visit her medium friend for advice. Pulling in the driveway, she sees Wanda stepping out on the

No words can describe what goes on in this girl's mind. Some call her deranged, crazy, but others say she is smart and insane, but you really need to get into the mind of a deranged person. Before she met her maker, Rebecca was a well-rounded girl with a good head on her shoulders. She was smart, intelligent even a little nerdy, but she had a sweetheart/and would do anything for those of family or friends. Rebecca does have OCD so she is very picky on some things including everything has to be in an order. If not she goes a little mad which is normal at least for the normal side of her mind. Rebecca has what some would say split personality, but she wasn't always like that, in fact, this girl was school body president, someone who would volunteer at animal shelters and even old folks homes. Then there is another part of Rebecca that is hidden from most, but her maker brought the darker part out of her.

Too poor to afford private health care insurance coverage, but lucky enough to qualify for Medicaid John Q faces yet another challenge. John’s father recently suffered a heart attack which brought into question his own mortality. John like many Americans is a working class man who works full time but still under the poverty level and into a substandard and overworked Medicaid system. He like many others has high blood pressure and with his father recent heart attack he would like to be checked out. Due to John’s low income he qualifies for Medicaid coverage, but also has work within his restraints. John lives in

John was told that he may only have 2-3 weeks (previously it was3-5months) to live after a cystoscopy showed further widespread growth of the tumor, it was strong-minded that any further surgical/medical intervention would not be appropriate in this case and that a palliative care regimen was the next step. At this point, the patient reported to the health care team that he had resigned himself to the fact that he was going to die. Mr. John pulled one of the author's classmates aside and confided to the nurse that he intended to kill himself and that is was a covert that the nurse was not to tell anyone. According to this patient's case, the patient Mr. John with end stage aggressive prostate malignancy who had been confirmed that he only have 2-3 week to live expresses the suicide effort to a nursing staff and asks nurse do not tell others. The behavior of patient put the nursing staff in a hard situation, which can be identify as an ethical dilemma. Beauchamp and Walter (2003), defined an ethical dilemma as a situation happens when person must make
