King’s side at least long enough to apprehend the Brotherhood. Alayna and the other nobles waited on a breath of hope that rescue would come. She had done her best to keep their hopes up and had even resorted in encouraging them to pray with the Septa. Anything to raise their spirits. At one point, even she found herself praying

with a lilac rose; a combination of his house’s colors and her sigil. A physical symbol her heart belonged to him even if they couldn’t be together. She smirked as she tied off the last stitch, admiring her handy work. For once the sewing lessons her Septa had forced her to sit through paid off, not that Alayna would ever admit it aloud. She had a reputation to uphold. Making her way through the bustling

Laughter of young men floated through the air like chimes on a breezy day as they sparred amongst each other near the barracks of Highgarden. As young Lords of the Reach, they all had dreams of finding glory for themselves as knights. Yet only one of them had been anointed, the future Lord of Highgarden, Mace Tyrell, whom many believed his Lord father had bought the title rather than earned it by his own merit. Having just turned seven-and-ten not three moons prior, one could see glimpses of the

On a day like no other, March 7th, 1997, a star was born – an anxiety stricken star, but a star nonetheless. My birthday is actually March 7, 1997 and I was born in Ionia, Michigan with the name of Alondra Gonzalez. I lived in Michigan until I was about 4 years old when my birth mother (Courtney), brother (Ian), and I left on a greyhound to Philadelphia.

Humeral shaft fractures account for 3 to 5% of all fractures in adults and for 20% of all humeral fractures. Fractures of the humerus can occur proximally, mid-shaft, or distally. Humeral shaft fractures occur most commonly in the elderly and are significantly associated with impairment of independence and quality of life. Majority of the fractures are non-displaced and can be treated non-operatively, which is still the standard treatment of isolated humeral shaft fractures. Although non-surgical

THE HEART The heart is a muscular organ about the size of a closed fist that functions as the body’s circulatory pump. It takes in deoxygenated blood through the veins and delivers it to the lungs for oxygenation before pumping it into the various arteries (which provide oxygen and nutrients to body tissues by transporting the blood throughout the body). The heart is located in the thoracic cavity medial to the lungs and posterior to the sternum. On its superior end, the base of the heart is

Introduction Menorrhagia, or heavy menstrual flow, is one of the greatest common complaints met by primary care doctors and gynecologists. It is defined as menstrual loss of more than 80 mL.
