Later that evening, she posted the picture on her facebook page. It was clear from her facebook page that she worked at Morton’s Crossing Nursing Home.…

    Five Days At Memorial

    • 3027 Words
    • 9 Pages

    Five Days at Memorial by Sheri Fink was a very compelling overview of the tragedy that took place at Memorial Hospital during the five days after Hurricane Katrina ravished New Orleans in September 2005. The book approached the ethical dilemmas faced by those physicians and staff involved in the key roles of the rescue effort at Memorial Medical Center, one of the many medical facilities that were devastated by this category 5 hurricane. The physicians who remained to care for the patients were put in the difficult position of deciding who was most appropriate for rescue, and what to do with those left behind. Staff members, nurses in particular, were put in the position of whether or not to obey seemingly unjustified orders. The catastrophe was worsened by the backlash from the patients’ families, the community, and the nation regarding their decisions, including arrests and wrongful…

    Federal Hall National Memorial lies in between Wall and Nassau Streets in Lower Manhattan, paying homage to some of the most memorable political events in our nation’s history. It is of extreme political significance since it serves as the first US Capital Building, the site where the freedom of the press was first challenged, the Stamp Act Congress was held, the place where George Washington was first inaugurated as president, and the site where the Bill of Rights was ratified. The original structure was demolished in 1812, and the structure in its place today, Federal Hall National Memorial, was created in 1842, on the site of the old Federal Hall on Wall Street. It first served as the United States Custom House, and then as a sub-Treasury…

    My Funeral

    • 337 Words
    • 2 Pages

    For my funeral, I would like everyone I know to come to it. Also I would very appreciate it if no one cries or is sad. I would just like it if they share my memories instead of mourning over them. I don't mind if my funeral is not that fancy, because I will not be there to see it, but I sure don't want the mood of the funeral very melancholy. I would also like people to dress in white, as per our Indian culture. I do not want to be buried underground and just rot away, but I would like it very much if I am cremated. I would like my ashes to be scattered in India, near my home there. During my wake, I would like everyone to do prayers with me and hope that I would come back to them in a different form, because I believe in rebirth. In my culture, we don't mourn over the ones we lost, but understand that God pick his flowers for a reason and we don't question the all knowing. My funeral should all be the way they used to do it in India. Most importantly, I would like to die where I was born, in Chicago. There, most of my friends and family live. I would also like the president to come to my funeral, even though that might be impossible, along with Bill Gates. I would also like to have my favorite possessions, at the time, to be with me at the wake. Mainly, I would very, very much appreciate it if my family members do not cry, because that will make my soul very sad and much attached to the previous body. Also I would like if everyone shares my memories on behalf of me, since I can not address to the public when I am dead. My funeral does not have to be the most expensive, but it would be excellent if it is the most…
