The human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) test is done to check for the hormone hCG in blood or urine (Staff, 2012). The hCG hormone is made during pregnancy by the placenta or can be abnormally made by certain tumors. The hCG test can be performed to test if a woman is pregnant or not, as part of a screening test for birth defects, in a woman who may have abnormal tissue growth in her uterus, a molar pregnancy, or a cancer in the uterus rather than a normal pregnancy. HCG levels can even be measured in a man to see whether he has

I said it, I SAID IT, please please forgive me, oh GOD. I truly loved my wife, b b-ut I forced the life out of her, I I-”, he paused, as the golden eyes behind the glass roamed his expression. Nathaniel’s face scrunched in disgust at himself when he recalled the dreadful memory. “My pills and injections, I hated I was flawed, I hated that. I stopped taking them, as if I thought love would cure me. For months I was fine. A miracle, I thought. A miracle. I wanted a child, a sweet baby gal… my wife wasn’t ready… and anger consumed me. Selfishness. Violence. My sanity was losing itself, insanity slowly devouring me. A monster began to breathe through me. I lost reality’s connection. How could I have ignored that?.. ignored that psychosis was possessing me again. Again and again and again. Just as I had let my hands rip across my beloved’s

NARRATOR: Once upon a time there was a beautiful mother who was recently divorced with 3 daughters, two sweet ones and one rude one. All of her children were from a previous marriage that ended terribly. Two of her daughters Zella and Tasha were perfectly fine with the divorce but Cindy started acting very rebellious. Motherella’s ex-husband treated her terrible but Cindy never thought anything of it. Cindy thought that the divorce was all Motherella’s fault.

It was an ordinary winter day in the city of Lynn, Massachusetts. As people headed to work and school they looked forward to the adventures the weekend would bring the next day. However, not so far away, Henry Rosario and his wife, Wendy Contreras, waited anxiously in their apartment knowing that the moment that would change their lives forever was near. “As my first daughter it was very painful, scary, and anxious” (Contreras interview). After waiting for what seemed like forever, they decided to go to Salem Hospital. Once they arrived, however, they were told by the doctor that she was not was not ready to deliver yet and was sent back home. At home, Wendy paced around the living room in agony waiting for the moment to come so she could get

Everyone experiences moments of suffering at one point in their lives. These moments can be referred to as obstacles. These obstacles, when not overcome, can be detrimental to the physical and mental well being of someone. In A Narrative of the Captivity, Mary Rowlandson describes being a Puritan captured by Indians as a result of King Philip’s war during the 17th century. Not only did she have to live alongside the Indians as a prisoner, but she was also captured and separated from her children. In The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano, Equiano and his sister were kidnapped and traded among various households as servants. Every time Equiano managed to ease the pain, he was deprived from the alleviation, such as the time he was separated from his sister. Both authors suffered a great amount due to the fact that they lost important people in their lives and were filled with terror at the mere thought of being held captive. The difference between these two stories is the means they use to try to overcome their obstacles.

She had to accept the fact that what her mother did wasn’t something that she could control, however what she could control was being a much more open minded and loving daughter. And through this change in thinking she was able to “[experience] a tremendous sense of growth” which allowed her to let go of her bitterness and to let the relationship grow and prosper once more. The point she makes with this is that, even though blame is an effective defense mechanism against risk and embarrassment, that it creates a whole new set of problems. That only through a growth mindset can one effectively identify problem areas in relationships and work together with one’s partner to fix them.

Her journey began in her senior year of college, when her life inadvertently shifted. She left school to become a wife, mother and an overseer of her husband’s dental office. For years, all seemed well on the outside, but privately Carrie was enduring abuse from her husband. At the age of 36, now a mother of 3, she made the crucial decision to leave, never to turn back. Her courage to step out of an abusive relationship, and pursue a life of the unknown, proved to be a pivotal moment. In the beginning, she shared feelings of fear and adrift. However, through the process of reading an exponential amount of self- help books, she regained her strength. She fell in love with everything that she was learning and began to transform into a woman with purpose. This magnetically, attracted the attention of her peers, seeking insight to her transformation. For Carrie, this ignited the inspiration to help other woman, a process she refers to as the “Domino effect”. She realized that she could support and empower other women just like herself, and unbeknownst to her this was only the

One day while walking through Frankenmuth, my mother had a gut feeling that she was expecting. When my parents returned home from the day’s festivities my mom snuck away to take a pregnancy test, which confirmed she was in fact pregnant. According to my dad, he was surprised and very excited to be expecting. My parents had long been trying to start their family but had suffered a miscarriage 8 weeks into their first pregnancy. Due to the prior miscarriage, my parents decided to use caution and wait until they made it through the first trimester to share the news with friends and family. My mother went on to explain that pregnancy changed everything for her from her diet to her daily activities. Both of my parents

I interviewed Diana a fifty-one-year-old female who is married and has a twenty-one-year-old son who lives at home. She is the third child of three and her sister is nineteen years older and her brother is thirteen years older than her. She was always called the menopause mistake. As a senior in high school Diana’s sister got engaged to her high school boyfriend, Ken, after she discovered she was pregnant with his baby. They hurried to get married, but when she and her mom went shopping for the wedding dress, the pregnancy was discovered and called off. Diana’s Mom was pregnant at the same time as Diana’s sister was pregnant. The sister had a boy named Kenny; he and Deb grew up like siblings.

What is a crisis management? It is an unexpected crisis that happens on the company that will affect the trust and loyalty of the stakeholder.
