Many writers have attempted to find the words to express how the family of a lost loved one feels in the aftermath of such a terrible tragedy, but often they fail to fully grasp the emotion in their writing. Lin Manuel Miranda is not one of these writers. In his song, “It’s Quiet Uptown,” from Hamilton, he beautifully portrays what its like trying to continue after losing someone

of my life. Unfortunately, I actually do not recall the moment when I realized that I could read by myself. I also do not remember reading or writing in my early years (kindergarten and first grade) or what my teachers taught me about literacy during that time. However, that doesn’t mean that literacy wasn’t important to me. I have always loved reading. My favorite moments from elementary school were when my favorite teachers would read to me and my classmates. I loved when my second grade teacher

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) affects everyone involved: the victim and his/her’s loved ones. First of all, caregivers are often overlooked, and never realized for what sacrifices they give up to care for their loved one. Secondly, the financial burden of caring for someone with Alzheimer’s is a big job that can hurt the opportunities that needed more time to get a better degree. Thirdly, although the victim of Alzheimer’s disease is the ill one, usually, they aren’t the only one suffering from this terrible

becoming upset yourself will only worsen the problem. After responding appropriately and de-escalating their anger, try motivating them to get help for their anger.
