I actually have time to blog more than once in a week or months. I have some free time between classes and decided to take a break. My online "Medical Law & Ethics" class meets once a month. We all have to do presentations in the class. Since, my last name is Wiford. I'm at the bottom!! :) For once I'm happy to be at the bottom of the alaphabet. Gives me more time to prepare and come up with material. I throughly enjoyed the presentations. Medical Law and Ethics coveres a lot of "touche" subjects in the health care. One gal did a presentation on genetic engerinering. Wow! That is a crazy subject. You are able to pick or delete what genes you want your child to have. You could pick down to the eye and hair color. There is a lot of cons to the subject though. Your baby becomes more like an object. Similar to going to Wal-Mart and picking out the best baby you want out of the options. There may be more of a positive light to it. If the parents first child has some type of disease the parents can "genetically engineer" a baby. They would use the cord and tissue from the second baby to help cure the disease of the first baby. I want to do more research in this topic. I know where I stand on the subject, but I think I need to do more research.
I am doing my subject on "Hospice Care" since Grandpa and Uncle Stephen both were under hospice care before they died. Mine is not due till the last week of April.
I am striving to get all "A's". It can be tough! I'm not doing too bad, yet. I hope I can do it. Taking 15 credit hours this semester can make life hetic. My homework is never ending. But, I'm doing good and getting things done on time. Teachers for some reason like to give busy work.
My favorite class of the semester is Microbiology! Wow! This class has changed me! Now more than ever do I believe in the Germ Theory. I'll post more about that later! I have to head off to class! Have a great Wednesday!

Aww... I like your blog! I didn't realize that you had one until I noticed that you had read mine in my "traffic" stat thingy. :) Thanks! I sometimes feel as if no one ever reads it. Haha!
