Complete atrioventricular canal defect (CAVC) is a heart condition in which there is a large hole in the center of the heart and only one heart valve. Normally, the heart is divided into four chambers, and there is one valve on each side of the heart. The chambers on the right side of the heart receive blood from the body and pump it to the lungs where the blood gets oxygen. The chambers on the left side of the heart get the oxygen-rich blood from the lungs and pump it back out to the body. In CAVC, the blood in the chambers mix, and the heart valve may not close tightly. This makes the heart work much harder than normal.…

Throughout the course I delivered speeches on Zombies, Coming of Age Traditions around the World, Leukemia, and Volunteering. Surprisingly, I found it quite easy to relate a majority of these topics to my audience which was satisfying.

However, the topic I had the hardest time relating to my audience was the Leukemia speech. It was a topic I wanted to do more research on since my mom was diagnosed, but many of my classmates may not have experienced that making it hard for them to adapt. As a result, I did my best to make the speech as interesting as possible. On the other hand, I…
