While Jenna was having a conversation with Amy, Amy tells that she thinks Joe did not kill her father. After that comment, Jenna starts to suspect that Michael may have done the crime. For example in this quote “Haunted by images of Joe Sadowski and Michael MacKenzie, all she wanted was to get to the bottom of things, She wondered what Michael MacKenzie had been doing at Joe’s.” In this quote, Jenna starts to suspect things with Michael because she saw him with the person who was the potential culprit, Joe. Also the book reads, “Because she kept seeing, over and over, no matter how hard she tried to block it from her mind, was the familiar face of Michael MacKenzie.”

This poem really intrigued me with its use of repetition and the message it was trying to convey to its readers. The narrator of this poem seems to depend on another person to give him directions. After reading the poem, I realized that there was a connection between the narrator of this poem and Jenna in the Adoration of Jenna Fox. Both Jenna and the narrator seemed to be lacking an independent train of thought. The “old” Jenna was dependent on her parents to make her decisions while the narrator of this poem seem to follow whatever commands he is told to do so by the other unknown person in the poem. Having your own judgment and opinion will be the differentiating factor between you and the next person.

The book that I read was Memoirs of Teenage Amnesiac by Gabrielle Zevin. The book is from the point of view of Naomi Porter, and it begins when Naomi is retrieving a yearbook camera from school because she lost a coin toss with Will Landsman, her co-editor, as well as the guy she kissed just days before. But, this does not matter because as Naomi is going down the stairwell in the school, she falls on the front steps of the school, or as she is told, and hits her head. Hard. Luckily, James Larkins, the resident delinquent from school, is there. Naomi loses her memory from the past four years. As life goes on, she develops into the person she wants to be, and she realizes some of her relationships with people are not the way she would like

Jennifer Dixanna a women with power to control men; however, her last taunts her to do things she thinks is right. She is someone who becomes what men desire in a women and leaves them hopeless.

Her parents then found out her chance of survival was 30% and as shocked and discourage her parents were they then found out that she could have been paralyzed.

For example, when she was playing with a little girl at Chic-Fil-A, the little girl kept calling her “girl.” Aaliyah would respond “no, I Liyah.” I did not observe, at this time, what Aaliyah self-esteem is like. The only emotions I can remember she showed was happiness, excitement, frustration and sympathy. For example, she likes to do things on her own and gets frustrated if someone tries to help her. The way she handle her anger, sadness, and aggression is by pouting and going into her own little corner. Her least favorite thing is being told no. For example, while observing her I’ve notice she doesn’t like to be told no, and her patient level is low. Her most favorite thing is anything that’s fun. For example, when I was observing her at the carnival. It was time to leave her mother asked her “did you have fun?” She replied saying “yes, thank you mommy.” She does go to church, but doesn’t understand. Aalyiah knows the concept of right and wrong in the home. For example, when I was observing her she knew that the empty bag of skittles belong in the trash can and not on the floor.

In the novel The Adoration of Jenna Fox, by Mary E. Pearson, an important message is the value of medical ethics. The author shows us many points of view on this issue. The two that are the most prominent are 1) that medical ethics are important, and we should have laws regarding them, and 2) that while medical ethics are important, we should still be able to save those we love, even if it breaks the law.

The main characters in the novels The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho and The Adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary E. Pearson, have many interesting traits. Santiago and Jenna Fox display several similar qualities in their stories. Both characters are brave, determined, strong, and curious. Although Santiago and Jenna go through many continuous struggles, they become more knowledgeable and evolve at the end of their journey. This essay will show two qualities of each character.

Someone with no control over his or her mind will unknowingly yearn for independence; some may come to realize this, but others will refuse to do so in fear of the outcome. The mom character from “The story for Children” and Truman from The Truman Show, both suffer a lack of control over their minds, which have continuously been suppressed and governed by society and man. The thoughts they have are not their own, neither are the decisions they make. The characters differ in their initial reactions towards the chains binding them to what society thinks is okay, while Truman chose to grasp control over his mind and break out of the chains Christof had tightly wrapped around him, the mother remained a prisoner to society’s thoughts and beliefs. Living a controlled life is similar to being a dependent variable in an experiment; the factors someone depended on will always affect him or her, yet

Jenna case is heart breaking, I would hate to be in this situation and have to make the decision that her parents had to make with the help of the Case Manager. Jenna is a 12 year old girl that has a rear disorder that causes tumors to grow along the myelin sheath of her spine. As a result of this disorder Jenna developed scoliosis, in the attempt to correct the scoliosis a surgery was performed that left her paralyzed in her lower extremities. Because of the paralysis and the limited mobility in her upper body, Jenna was hospitalized and treated for abdominal sepsis. This lead to a complete gastrectomy. Foremother, the were complication during her surgery that resulted in a tracheotomy which requires mechanical ventilation. In addition she also had several different types of drains that require special attention; a jeujenostomy for feeding, a gastrostomy tube for draining, and a esophagostomy that draining from the side of her neck.

Jenna’s future was unknown, no one could predict how much longer or the quality of life that she would have.

Before the above mentioned hospitalization, Jenna had been responsible for most of her own physical health care, she was independent, even preformed her own catheterizations. This article does’t mention if she was

In the poem “Medium,” Jennifer Grotz utilizes various examples of selective memory, phallic symbols, and yonic symbols to demonstrate a man raping a girl and ultimately leading to the realization of his mistake and evidently his suicide. She describes the situation in which she is being contacted by the man who raped her, and uses hidden language to compare her unwilling experience with him and his attempt at suicide. It is obvious that Grotz belittles the intruder’s suicide by speaking in an ironic, nonchalant tone due to the fact that she does not care if he dies because of what he did to her. The word “medium” has multiple definitions including a clairvoyant and the plural of media. The significance of the word clairvoyant, someone who speaks

Everyday life is complicated for Jenna, hence the name of the series. She has her own blog titled “the invisible girl” that she types in everyday about how her day went, similar to a personal journal.

Emma’s early childhood experiences with animals bred a passion about all living things that sparked a deep interest. Even today Emma’s common thoughts consist of her future career, which she hopes to fill completely with animal interactions. In fact, the vast majority of her thoughts focus towards the future, whether it concerns her career, family, or even college.
