This is an ethical dilemma that the healthcare personnels are facing. An 18 year anorexic patient wants to stop all of her treatments. Will the doctors allow her? She is already 18 years old and she can now make a decision...

romina_antonio maybe it is. if the patient is the one requesting it, why not give them what they want? but if you are the doctor, maybe you will not. because you are expert on that field. Why would you discharge a patient who is not completely well. right? if they have that...

romina_antonio Hacking is not the way for the government just to justify cyber war. There have been some issues on hacking, this includes hacking one of the government's websites. If hackers are hired by the government, why would they hack their own website? weird right?...

romina_antonio No one is perfect, really. We all know that. But people cannot keep themselves from giving criticism. We tend to react to what people do, and if what they do is some what not favorable to us, we react negatively. Which can be normal maybe for us. We must...

dolce_vita78 @dolce_vita78 (8062) • Philippines 16 Jan 10
