Surgery on preborn helps save the baby humans: Update

I have written on this topic before in my effort to #savethebabyhumans. As a Registered Nurse with a long career I worked in a variety of paid positions. One of those was as Operating Room Circulator which is a defined role of assisting the surgeon and scrub team as the person who is not scrubbed up or "sterile" but who hands sterile supplies in a particular way to not contaminate them. And another of those positions was as "first assistant" in the operating room, with duties to hold retractors, cut suture, be the second pair of hands for general surgeons.

The surgery on humans in the womb at the stage of development of "fetus" proves that those humans are HUMAN. The surgeons who do those surgeries eyeball and touch and operate on those tiniest humans in womb. I am including some quotes about a particular center that specializes on surgery on babies in the womb so you can read more about it and be persuaded that ending abortion as a so-called "right" is the thing to do and it is the current civil rights battle.

About the University of California at San Francisco's:
UCSF Fetal Treatment center is the Fetal Treatment Center with quote: "of the most experienced institutions in fetal surgery and endoscopic fetal intervention (FETENDO fetal surgery) in the world. Our dedication to research, innovation, and clinical application has included the training of many dedicated physicians.

The Fetal Treatment Center combines the talents of specialists in pediatric surgery, genetics, obstetrics/perinatology, anesthesia, cardiology, radiology, nursing, and neonatal medicine. Our team of doctors, nurses, and social workers work together to coordinate all aspects of care from diagnosis to postoperative recovery and long-term follow-up." And: "The Fetal Treatment Center is intricately connected with the UCSF Division of Pediatric Surgery at UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital which is dedicated to providing expert surgical care for fetuses, infants, children, and adolescents with congenital and acquired conditions".[end quote]

Also, Life News has compiled some medical quotes about the scientific / medical facts of the humanity of the babies in the womb; and you can read them at the link:

http://www.lifenews.com/2015/01/08/41-quotes-from-medical-textbooks-prove-human-life-begins-at-conception/

I am asking all people with a love of THE LIVING GOD to repent of having supported the cause of killing and to turn from that, and to P.U.S.H. * until abortion is outlawed in the United States.

For those women who do not choose life, you should read this article I wrote:
My c. difficile article: https://sites.google.com/site/newsforlife/Page1

Also, I am adding in some photos and art I created to clearly identify this blog as one of mine for several reasons including copyright of my art and photos and words that I create; and for the sake of law enforcement to clearly identify me to prevent I D thieves from stealing my name or art, or anything else of mine. Also, fyi to @FBI and @Google: I received the fake Google login today to this account. The message in a woman's voice told me not to share my code with anybody and that Google "would never ask for it" but of course, Google asks for it! I set up the 2 step authorization on this account trying to prevent cyber-criminals from breaking into it. So, the code that is called to me is the login code. I know the fake code is coming from area code 202 in Washington DC because of caller ID; and that the fake code is some sort of trick to allow criminals [probably the same ones who try to steal my T-mobile phone numbers] into my account. FYI.

This is my signature I signed in digital ink with an electronic "brush" to create a personal logo for 2015. I also created one in paint & posted it to other blogs of mine.

This is my photo of my left hand holding one of my Southern Baptist cross necklaces that do not have any graven images on it. The Southern Baptist/ Great Commission faith does not worship images/ idols/ icons of any body; nor does it bow to idols or statues. I am Southern Baptist, born again Christian single woman and I worship THE LVING LORD only . You can read some of my reasons for that in Matthew 18:3-4 and also Mark 16: 15-18, King James Holy bible.

This is one of the photos I photographed in Dec 2014 on walkabout; of the U S flag that flies near my apartment. I post this on web sites and blogs in various photos to remind all that I am a U S citizen with First Amendment liberties to publish my religious beliefs, words, ideas, goals, actions, photos, art I create and to worship GOD; and to protest the governments without interference by governments. Google the First Amendment to read the precise words of it since this paragraph is my summary of the rights it conveys to U S citizens. I am a U S citizen by birth and have all civil liberties of the U S Constitution

Medical lesson on fevers, written by Gloria Poole, RN, artist of Missouri and Georgia

About fevers that develop suddenly

written by Gloria Poole, Registered Nurse, artist of Missouri and Georgia

This "lesson" for the public's health is about the diagnosis and treatment of a sudden fever, and is intended as a mere guideline for anyone anywhere who develops a fever suddenly or has a family member who does; or who is expected to care for a person with a fever. Pay attention to what other symptoms the person with a fever develops. Does shaking of body or arms and legs occur called "chills" ? Is there a general overall feeling of not being well, called "general malaise"? Did the person with fever lose the appetite for food? Does the person have a headache? Does the person with fever have spots or rash on face or body? Can the person swallow normally? Can the person keep down liquids? Has the person with fever lost weight? When did the fever begin? Is the fever worse at night? Does the person with a fever also have a cough? If so,, does the coughing occur in spasms? Does the coughing cause the person to spit out mucus? Are the pupils of the eyes reddened? Does the person's nose run ? Does the person have vomiting or diarrhea? Does the person have bleeding from eyes, nose, ears, rectum?

In a normal healthy person, the normal temperature when taken by mouth varies from 96.5degrees fahrenheit [35.8 degrees Centigrade] to 99.0 degrees fahrenheit [37.2 degrees Centigrade] and usually the temperature is lowest between the hours of 2 -4 am, and highest between 6 -10pm. In very hot weather or after running, the body temperature may be 0.5 to 1.0 degrees fahrenheit higher [03. to 0.6 degrees centigrade] temporarily. Most pharmacies sell some sort of thermometer for home use either the glass bulb sort that has mercury in it that is very durable but has to be disinfected between patients; or electronic ones which are much more expensive, have to be recalibrated at every use, and have to be replaced often.

Infection somewhere in the body is the most likely cause of any fever. Some infections cause other symptoms within a day or two. Some fevers can persist for 3 weeks without developing other symptoms. Most common infections are viral infections including infectious mononucleosis, viral hepatitis, varicella [chicken-pox], rubeola, [measles], rubella [German measles], human immunodeficiency virus {HIV], and rickettsial infections such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever, caused by tick bites, and Q fever caused by airborne rickettsiae in dust caused by contaminated animals or by direct contact with infected animals; Lyme disease which is a spirochetal infection caused by deer ticks; and a variety of bacterial infections including infections of the pleura, biliary tract, retroperitoneum, kidney, liver, spleen; and several acute [creating a crisis] bacterial infections including acute bacterial endocarditis [bacteria affecting the outer sac of the heart] and Salmonella bacteremia [food poisoning] , and Leptospirosis caused by contact with domestic or wild animals' urine in moist soil or water.

Also, if the person with the fever has traveled to other countries that he or she does not normally live in, the diseases prevalent in those countries must be taken into consideration when arriving at a diagnosis. Some of those diseases that cause fever are malaria, dengue fever, scrub typhus, tuberculosis, ebola, plaque caused by rodents, typhoid, tetanus.

The incubation period varies for different fevers. Incubation period means the time it takes for symptoms to develop after the person was exposed to the virus or bacteria. The incubation period for chicken-pox is 10-21 days; for German measles it is 14-21 days, for ebola it is up to 21 days after exposure, for Leptospirosis it is 4-19 days, for measles it i 9 to 11 days, for Q fever it is 14- 26 days, for Rocky Mountain Spotted fever it is 3 to 14 days.

Hypersensitivity to prescribed medicines can cause fever also, but digitalis preparations and insulin almost never are the cause of fever. Medicines that frequently cause fever because of hypersensitivity of the patient to them are: Allopurinol, Amphotericin B, antihistamines, Atropine, barbiturates, Bleomycin, Captopril, cephalosporins, Clofibrate, Ethambutol, Heparin, Hydralazine, Ibuprofen. iodides, Isoniazid, Methyldopa, Nifedipine, Nitrofurantoin, p-Aminosalicyclic acid, Penicillinamine, Penicillins, Phenolphthalein, Phenytoin, Procainamide, Propylthiouracil, Pyrazinamide, Quniidine, Salicylates, Streptomycin. Sulindac, Sulfonamides. Fever may begin [promptly with the first dose of these drugs or occur weeks later, but a person who has taken any of these for longer than 3 months' time, is not having fever because of these drugs. A drug-induced fever may be low grade or rise to 104 degrees fahrenheit [40 degrees centigrade]. Chills do not commonly occur with drug-induced fevers. But itching, rash, eosinphilia occur in many cases. In a few cases drug induced fevers progress to serum sickness [rash, swollen lymph nodes, arthritis, nephritis, swelling . Some drugs can cause a lupus-like syndrome of fever, arthralgias, and positive anti-nuclear antibody [ANA] titers, If removing the drug causes the fever to go away, that is a definitive establishment of cause and effect. If organ damage occurred with the administration of any drug, the drug should not be taken again. Administration-related fever may occur with any medicine give by intravenous method. Some medicines cause leukopenia and fever.

Other causes of fever are vascular occlusion events such as deep vein thrombophlebitis, minor pulmonary embolus, asymptomatic myocardial infarction [ M.I., commonly called heart attack]. Also, fever may be the only symptom of acute autoimmune hemolytic anemia or hemolytic anemia due to glucose-6-phosphate dhydrogenase [G6PD] deficiency. Some vaccines cause fever.

The people who at most at risk of developing infections are those with preexisting conditions such as lymphoma, HIV, those receiving corticosteroids, those on immuno-suppressive drugs, rheumatic valvular disease, certain congenital heart diseases, multiple myeloma, splenectomy, sickle cell disease, granulocytopenia [less than 1,000 granulocytes/mm] , advanced cirrhosis, diabetes, alcoholism, and those who use illegal substances .

Fevers lasting more than 3 weeks are usually chronic conditions such as tuberculosis, subacute bacterial endocarditis, [SBE, chronic osteomyelitis, cytomegalovirus infections, intra-abdominal abscesses, urinary tract infections, HIV, systemic lupus erythematosus, temporal arthritis, certain neoplasms especially lymphoma, acute leukemia, hypernephroma, hepatoma, pancreatic carcinoma. carcinoma of lung, bone malignancies, granulomatous hepatitis, hyperthyroidism, drug fever, inflammatory bowel disease, sarcoidosis, thyroiditis, recurrent pulmonary emboli. If fever has continued longer than 3 weeks in spite of diagnostic studies, these diseases must be considered as the possible cause of it.

To diagnose fever, start with taking a comprehensive history from the patient. Ask the questions in paragraph one and include other questions about possible exposure to other people who have symptoms of any disease? Any travel abroad? To where, when, for how long? Are other people in the same household sick or have a fever? Does the person with a fever have any of the diseases listed in the above paragraph? Does the person with fever take any of the drugs or illegal substances listed in the paragraph about hypersensitivity ? After the history is written see if any of it suggests a path to take to diagnose? if not, start the diagnostic work-up to include: a chest X-ray of both lateral and posterior-anterior views, a complete blood count with differential, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, liver function tests, at least two blood cultures [aerobic and anaerobic], urinalysis, quantitative urine culture if urinalysis reveals pyuria or bacteriuria . If symptoms are severe, the patient may be hospitalized and treated with prompt anti-microbial drugs to prevent sepsis. A physical examination should be done intermittently as long as fever persists to see if organs are being affected; and should include examination of the eyes with opthalmoscope, palpation for an enlarged or tender temporal artery, listen for a new or changing heart murmur, palpate for an enlarged or tender thyroid gland, listen for pericardial, pleural, or hepatic friction rubs, palpate the liver, spleen, abdomen, for swelling or tenderness, examine the rectum [and prostate in men], feel for enlarged or tender lymph nodes, look at mucus membranes of mouth, eyes; look at nail beds for color and any splinter hemorrhages. Give the person with fever a PPD [Purified protein derivative test] for tuberculosis unless there is a documented history of a positive PPD or of tuberculosis. Examine blood smears if the person has traveled to countries where malaria exists in past six months. Evaluate medicines patient takes. If any are on the list of medicines and are not essential, discontinue them. If they are essential, change the medicine to something not on the list above that are known to cause fever.

Have patient take their own temperate twice a day for at least two weeks and chart it so you can see if a pattern emerges? If fever persists, continue diagnostic work-up with skin tests, electrocardiogram, serum calcium level, serum titers of antistreptolysin O, rheumatoid factor, antinuclear antibody, HIV antibody, and a Monospot test and repeat the complete blood count with differential. It is important at this point to have an independent observer/ care giver to test the temperature and record it for another week. A fever of unknown origin lasting more than 3 weeks probably should be evaluated in an acute care hospital. Fevers that have other symptoms especially causing hemorrhaging or vomiting and diarrhea need to be hospitalized as quickly as possible.

It is important to note that not all fevers have to be treated. Some will run their course and the patient will get well. The use of antipyretics may not be needed but if so, aspirin is a very good anti-pyretic but may cause the patient to sweat and have shaking chills. That response can be diminished by giving the patient aspirin in dose of .03 to 0.g grams regularly at 3 to 4 hour intervals. If patient is allergic to aspirin, or at risk of bleeding, acetaminophen may be given. Unless the patient is acutely ill, with involvement of organs, it is considered best to hold off on treatment with antibiotics until you know what you are treating.

To prevent contamination of other persons the care taker and or medical doctor must use good handwashing technique including scrubbing under fingernails with a strong disinfectant and a nail brush and washing any part of their body that came into contact with infected person. If the virus or bacteria is airborne [spread by droplets through the breathing in and out of the infected person] then masks and covering head to toe must be apart of the regimen of care. See the links in previous posts on how to do that.

I referred to medical textbook, Principles of Ambulatory Medicine, edited by L. Randol Barker, MD; John R Burton,MD,;and Phillip Zieve, MD; chapter 26 to summarize and put into my own words so that average persons could understand this.

I have never signed a blanket waiver of my copyrights to art I have created and do not have an artist's rep [agent], nor literary agent to represent me, and never did. I drew, painted, signed, photographed and uploaded all art on this blog and on any blog of mine.

For the record and to establish provenance of art I have already created also: the art I have created and signed and posted to this blog of mine is part of an on-going series of art I created since year 1991 beginning in Atlanta, GA that "blossomed" in year 2005 in Aurora, Colorado when I lived there for one year [May 2006-May 2007], and art began to really become an integral part of my efforts to save the baby humans from premeditated destruction. In 2005, I began to realize I could use the art to illustrate my talking points in some cases, and to build a secondary "career' for me as artist. In the year 2006 when I had endured and lived to tell about it a violent crash down a flight of stairs and had trauma, fractures, concussion, because my then-husband DBP tried to kill me to 'make it look like an accident" and he tried to twist off my broken leg, I had immobility for months except on crutches and walking boot after surgery to repair fractures and implant metal. As I sat with leg propped up I began to draw daily and paint to occupy the time and my mind. I also began to post art to the web on my blogs and websites, and also photographs I had photographed. I began a series of art then that is named "ethnic series by Gloria" [me] to attempt to draw and paint an art work of every ethnic group tribe, language, culture in the world and I created eight initial oil paintings in the first batch and posted them to the web on domains of mine. I moved from Aurora to zip code 80203 for 2 and 1/2 years and then moved to Missouri on Oct 31, 2009 with the art I had in my possession at that time. I paint some of the sketches I created in do-overs into oils on canvas and those are very visible on the web. I put many of them on my mini exhibit of art at https://mini-exhibition.blogspot.com, and also on my Picasa albums at https://picasaweb.google.com/gloriapoole.

I, Gloria Poole, am a white, Southern Baptist Christian, brown-haired woman, single-again, twice-divorced,natural mother of only two children who are grown daughters named Jennifer and Leigh, and also a republican, personhood promoter, prolife activist-blogger, photographer, artist in all mediums, poet, author, illustrator, cartoonist, writer, University of Georgia alumna, U S citizen born in the state of Georgia [but I lived in several places including New York, UK briefly, Nebraska, South Carolina, Colorado, Virginia, North Carolina], former TV producer,tweeter, Registered Nurse licensed in Missouri [but before that in Georgia, UK, other states], owner/writer/blogger/photographer/illustrator for words that WORK, and also for Tapestry of LIFE,and also for Life Media & Publishing in years 2004-2011; and a just-for-fun-photographer, and citizen journo . Gloria Poole is my real, born with legal name and I resumed my full maiden name including my surname of Poole legally by Court order at the time of divorce from male DBP in Colorado in Oct, 2007 at Centennial, Colorado; and I also removed the Pappas name from my name forevermore at the time of final decree in Oct 2007 . I was glad to end that four year horrible marriage of multiple trauma and injuries to me caused by male DBP, [which I testified about in Court on several occasions ]. That second divorce is public record in the state of Colorado, and my first divorce is public record in the state of Georgia. I have created art regularly since 1991, and I had formal training in drawing and in mixing colors /paint and painting in oils and I post much of the art I create on blogs of mine. You can see some of that art on one of my name blogs at https://gloriapoole.blogspot.com and see the about me page of that blog for the list of art blogs I own and post art too, that are all different. .

Update on Ebola situation by Gloria Poole, RN in Missouri

Ebola is in the news very much still as it seems to me to be the 21st century version of the Black Plague. Here is some of the information available on this topic that spans 3 countries in West Africa, New York, Georgia, Texas, Maine and New Jersey. I am numbering for ease of reference.

1) Center for Disease Control 's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Reports:
http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/ebola_reports.html [ all reports] and

http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm6343a3.htm?s_cid=mm6343a3_w [for week of 28 Oct 2014] with quote: "The map of the cumulative incidence of Ebola, as of October 18, indicates that the highest incidence rate (>100 cases per 100,000 population) was reported by two districts in Guinea (Guéckédou and Macenta), five districts in Liberia (Bomi, Bong, Lofa, Margibi, and Montserrado), and four districts in Sierra Leone (Bombali, Kailahun, Kenema, and Port Loko) (Figure 3).

2) The latest updates on the 2014 Ebola outbreak in West Africa, including case counts, are available at http://www.cdc.gov/vhf/ebola/outbreaks/guinea/index.html.

3) The most up-to-date clinical guidelines on the 2014 Ebola outbreak in West Africa are available at http://www.cdc.gov/vhf/ebola/hcp/index.html."

4) Surveillance and Preparedness in NYC Report [CDC MMWR]: http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm6341a5.htm?s_cid=mm6341a5_w/ with quote: "the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), in close coordination with local hospitals and clinicians, nongovernmental organizations and community groups, and city, state, and federal agencies, established systems around Ebola surveillance and management of suspected cases and contacts, and built upon existing general protocols for early recognition and management of persons with a viral hemorrhagic fever. Objectives included rapidly identifying Ebola patients in health care settings, implementing infection control precautions, and transporting ill persons to hospitals via emergency medical services, including persons arriving on international flights into John F. Kennedy International Airport. Enhanced planning began immediately after a CDC alert about Ebola on July 28, 2014. Reporting criteria and infection control guidance were developed in collaboration with local hospitals and sent to hospitals and clinicians via an electronic health alert system on August 11. Information also was shared on three citywide conference calls and in oral presentations to target audiences (1). DOHMH developed Ebola-specific data collection forms and triage protocols and trained staff to handle calls.
The guidance instructed clinicians to call DOHMH immediately after identifying any patient meeting the CDC definition for a person under investigation (PUI): a person who traveled to an Ebola-affected area within 21 days of onset of symptoms and had fever >101.5º F [38.5º C] and compatible symptoms such as severe headache, muscle pain, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, or unexplained bleeding ". ..."planning for isolation and management of PUIs or confirmed Ebola patients. DOHMH distributed posters for health care facilities to post in emergency departments to encourage patients to report recent travel history to an Ebola-affected country upon arrival.† DOHMH medical epidemiologists were available at all hours to respond to clinician and hospital questions about PUIs or other persons suspected of having Ebola, using guidance largely consistent with CDC's risk categories. Under the system, patients with high-risk or low-risk exposure to Ebola would be transferred to another hospital if there was concern about the ability of the reporting hospital to manage the patient; Ebola testing, if indicated and after consultation with CDC, could be performed at DOHMH with confirmatory testing at CDC. Patients should also undergo evaluation for alternate diagnoses. The protocol included consideration of laboratory studies such as complete blood count, coagulation studies, liver function tests, and malaria testing, to assist in determining the need for Ebola testing. Patients not needing hospitalization could remain isolated at home, with daily monitoring by telephone by medical epidemiologists until the patient's symptoms improved such that Ebola was no longer of concern, or until worsening or persistent symptoms prompted repeat evaluation for Ebola or an alternate diagnosis.
As of October 6, 2014, DOHMH had received inquiries from health care providers about 88 patients: 49 (56%) had not been in an affected area in the 21 days before symptom onset, and 28 (32%) met travel criteria but not clinical criteria. "

5) 27 Oct 2014: That ebola exposed nurse had an elevated temperature [ a symptom of #ebola] when she was discharged from quarantine in NJ according to http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_EBOLA_US?SITE=MOCOD&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT;

9) CDC new guidelines for ebola: http://www.fiercehealthcare.com/story/cdc-issues-new-ebola-guidance-ed-workers/2014-10-28?utm_medium=nl&utm_source=internal

From CDC and FierceHealthcare: "The guidelines call on ED workers to take the following steps when treating a patient who exhibits symptoms of the deadly virus:

Take the patient's exposure history to determine whether the patient lived or traveled in a country with widespread Ebola transmission or had contact with a patient with confirmed Ebola in the previous 21 days.

If the patient meets the exposure criteria, determine if they have signs or symptoms, including a fever greater than 100.4 degrees, headache, weakness, muscle pain, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain or hemorrhage.

If the patient with a relevant exposure history has the signs and symptoms, the ED must isolate the patient in a private room or separate enclosed area with private bathroom or covered, bedside commode and adhere to procedures and precautions designed to prevent transmission by direct or indirect contact (e.g. dedicated equipment, hand hygiene, and restricted patient movement).

If the patient arrives by ambulance, ED workers should meet the patient in a designated area away from other patients and have a process in place for safely transporting the patient on the stretcher to the isolation area with minimal contact with non-essential healthcare workers or the public.

To minimize transmission risk, only essential healthcare workers with designated roles should provide patient care. Maintain a log of all personnel who enter the patient's room. All healthcare workers who have contact with the patient should put on appropriate PPE based on the patient's clinical status.

Healthcare workers should follow the PPE recommendations if patients require invasive or aerosol-generating procedures, such as intubation, suctioning or active resuscitation) and use equipment dedicated to the patient in a pre-designated area.

At minimum, healthcare workers should wear a face shield, surgical face mask, impermeable gown and two pairs of gloves. Do not use the same equipment used to care for these patients on others until appropriate evaluation and decontamination.

Notify the hospital's infection control staff and report the case to local health departments." Read entire article: http://www.fiercehealthcare.com/story/cdc-issues-new-ebola-guidance-ed-workers/2014-10-28?utm_medium=nl&utm_source=internal

10) A 21 day quarantine was also imposed on U S astronauts and they didn't whine about it. Quarantine guideline for astronauts included 21 day quarantine: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Quarantine_Facility [tweeted to me by NYCCouncilWatch and Seth Barron]

11) 30 Oct 2014: Comprehensive report on ebola: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-28754546 includes "The Basics" of http://www.bbc.com/news/health-29556006. Remember getting droplets of contaminated fluid into the eye is being exposed to ebola since the mucus membrane lining of the eye will absorb the virus into bloodstream.

12) NEVER, NEVER, Never eat bats! They are carriers of several diseases including rabies and ebola that infect humans.

13) Quote: ""Upon learning the healthcare worker intends to defy the protocols, the Office of the Governor [of Maine] has been working collaboratively with the state health officials within the Department of Health and Human Services to seek legal authority to enforce the quarantine," the governor said.

15) To start early intervention on any suspected of exposure to ebola you can follow The Rehydration Project formula [how to make oral rehydration solutions at home] :http://rehydrate.org/solutions/homemade.htm w/ quote: "Made at home: ORS Solution A special drink for diarrhoea:

Give the child a drink made with 6 level teaspoons of sugar and 1/2 level teaspoon of salt dissolved in 1 litre of clean water. Be very careful to mix the correct amounts. Too much sugar can make the diarrhoea worse. Too much salt can be extremely harmful to the child. Making the mixture a little too diluted (with more than 1 litre of clean water) is not harmful."

Ebola is in New York now.

The ebola virus arrived in New York today according to the news with the arrival of a medical doctor who had worked with ebola patients in West Africa. I am making an effort as a conscientious Registered Nurse [of 26 year career but not employed in it now] for the sake of the publics' health.

There is much in the news in every mainstream news about this so I am going to post links to the articles here so anyone can read them all together in one place. Also, remember that this is the third post on this topic and that there is more information on the previous 2 posts about ebola so scroll back to read those.

But, that is clearly not true. This particular Ebola strain appears to be more infectious than others." and it suggests it may be airborne since it is amongst animals.

The numbers have changed but this article contains some important information:
Quote: "Ebola has killed more than 3,400 people in West Africa, with more than 7,400 suspected, probable and confirmed cases." And: "The virus is transmitted through close and direct physical contact with infected bodily fluids, the most infectious being blood, faeces and vomit.

The ebola virus is in U S, now what? : Update2

Ebola is in the news much as some epidemiologists think it has the potential to become pandemic. And it is in the U S since patients with it have been admitted to Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, GA, and in Texas and in Nebraska. Remember it is a contagious disease and is carried through blood and body secretions of infected persons. I am posting some links to very well-written articles on this subject and also on the subject of sepsis which is bacteria in the bloodstream throughout the body. Ebola is a virus but some of the same emergency measures are used in any critical situation so I am including the American Journal of Nursing guidelines for sepsis.

Very good audio -visual of ebola infection:

The origins of mental illness is evil , written by Gloria Poole, RN, artist of Missouri; Update

This post is inspired by my thinking on this lovely, lilting prolife chant I read about in Missouri news about over-riding Gov's veto:
"“We love babies, yes we do. We love babies, how about you? "
And as I thought about how true that is for me and for all prolife true believers. Then I also realized that it is not true for those with defiled minds. The prodeathers defined as those who think the solution to any human conflict is killing the " unwanted" whether they are of so-called "wrong" skin color, or "wrong"national origin, or "wrong" beliefs, or their location of in the womb, or in refugee camps, or political opponents of the regime in power. I put the word wrong in quotes on purpose. ONLY GOD can define good and evil and HIS definition of those words stands the test of time and The Bible very clearly differentiates between the two promising in Deuteronomy chapter 28 blessings for those who obey GOD [good] and curses for those who disobey GOD [evil.] . However, wicked regimes through history have distorted the meanings of words to fool most of the people for a period of time and to declare whatever does not suit the tyrant in power as 'wrong". Some examples of that are these words that were used by wicked governments in history to make allowances for genocidal killing: slave; Jew; choice; Hebrew; ethnic cleansing; and in this 21st century the wicked regimes added the word Christian and "mass of tissue" as justification for slaughter, Of course that does not make it right in GOD's eyes. Propaganda is the very tool of evil. Propaganda is the mass media planned program to implant false ideas into the minds of the people, using a variety of methods , tools and techniques. The techniques were first recorded in Nazi Germany during Hitler's regime as he persuaded the German people that the Jews were poisoning their land, as his "justification" for killing them with poisonous gas. In the United States, since Roe v Wade usurpation of authority by the U S Supreme Court.* history books have been re-written; TV broadcast channels have been hijacked by the killing democratic party in the U S; the words of the U S Constitution were omitted from schools and the mantras and slogans of the wicked were substituted; and words to dehumanize humans are put into every text on every subject in all schools; and the idea that humans have the so-called "right" to kill is repeated over and over and over again by the wicked and their paid lawyer teams that make money off the blood of human beings. This blog post is my effort to undo the propaganda, and that has been a goal of mine since 1991, when I first began writing as a Registered Nurse on the prolife cause and how that the U Sis being shifted to a prodeath philosophy in hospitals, insurers, government agencies, culture, entertainment , TV; and the current administration in office.

I realized after reading in the book of Revelation yesterday that the United States has endured a massive propaganda brain-washing in the decades since that infamous decision of Roe v Wade hijacked the "right to life" as guaranteed by our U S Constitution and Amendments, to create a FAKE right to kill one's offspring in the womb. Righteous people cannot think the way wicked people think; and wicked people cannot think the way righteous people think. There was a piece of the "puzzle" missing until this morning when I read an alert in which a prodeath group was trying to hijack the prolife cause by saying that if people are really prolife they would oppose the death penalty. But that is not correct Biblically since GOD told all righteous people to not tolerate killing of innocents, and HE defined which crimes should be punished by death of the guilty murderer, and how guilt should be established. Read the Old Testament cover to cover for yourself and you will read that info for yourself.

The prodeathers equate the death penalty for heinous crimes with the murder of an innocent tiny defenseless baby. There is a verse in the Bible that says the minds of the wicked are distorted and reprobate. Romans 1: 28, KJV : "and even as they did not like to retain GOD in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient [footnote says debased]. " And also these verses: " but to us [believers] there is but one GOD , The Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord JESUS Christ, by whom are all thing, and we by Him. Howbeit there is not in every man that knowledge ; for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour , eat it as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak, is defiled. " I Corinthians 8:6-7, KJV. And this scripture: " unto the pure all things are pure; but unto them that are defiled and and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. " Titus 1:15. " A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways. " James 1:8, KJV. I am convinced this condition is what the world labels "mental illness" of a deranged, unstable, reprobate, abominable mind that causes the to lust after blood and evil. And here is GOD's decision about those sort: " and there shall in no wise enter into it [heaven] any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie; but they which are written in The Lamb's Book of Life. " Revelation 21:27, KJV

This verse :"So, ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are; for the blood it defileth the land; and the land cannot be cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it. " Numbers 35:33, KJV, is what GOD said about the shedding of innocent blood and the 'cure" for it. It is only one of the verses on this topic. I put many of the scriptures about human life on another blog of mine at https://publishing-life.blogspot.com. And I also put many scriptures on all topics on my https://salvation-is-free-blogspot.com blog.

What the righteous should remember is that it is written in Holy Bible: "he that justifieth the wicked and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to The Lord". Proverbs 17:15, KJV. those who condemn the innocent creations of GOD in the womb to death for the sins orf the mother or the father are abomination to GOD. Those who vilify and attempt to demonize prolifers who promote the right to life, and publish the commandment "thou shalt not kill", are abomination to The Lord.

De-romanticizing smoking with sketch and medical info, created by Gloria Poole, RN, artist

"A smoker" sketch by Gloria Poole , RN, artist of Missouri and Georgia; mixed media, 24 August 2014

I, Gloria Poole, RN, artist, drew, painted, signed, photographed and uploaded this sketch today 24 August 2014 as part of my 2 decades as a Registered Nurse long battle against smoking [by others-- I never smoked] trying to effect change by publicizing the truth about smoking. I worked on med-surg units of acute care hospitals for 26 years in my career as Registered Nurse. In that experience, I had patients to care for who had cancer that originated in many parts of their bodies, but today I am addressing the lung cancer . Those patients develop a sick appearance of not a normal healthy color, ad heavy smokers are usually very wrinkled and old looking. I drew this to discourage smoking and to warn people that if they smoke they lose their health and also their appearance. Yes, of course, I dramatized this. Cancer patients don't turn green, but they do develop a grey-ashen color of death appearance. I painted smoke into the background of this sketch. This sketch is watercolors and acrylics on 8 x 11 paper.

I tweeted that I was creating tis sketch yesterday and that another site of mine has been on web for years to promote healthy lifestyles at :
https://sites.google.com/site/optimumhealthisachievable and it may also be located at :
https://sites.google.com/site/gloriapooleRN/optimumhealthisachievable. I had two urls up for it because it was often attacked by Big Tobacco.

Also, I saw in the New York Times at : http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/24/business/international/michael-bloombergs-harder-sell.html today an article "Michael Bloomberg's Harder Sell" with a very good photo of him and Turkey, about his personal goals for Bloomberg Philanthropies to make a difference globally to end smoking. I was thrilled to read that article because Michael Bloomberg has the personal power and the financial clout to effect change around the world in the marketing of tobacco products. That article also makes the point that Turkey's new President Erdogan is also an anti-smoking crusader and I say welcome to the mission of ending tobacco usage to him and to Michael Bloomberg @MikeBloomberg; #MikeBloomberg. Also, for those high-powered people Mike Bloomberg and President of Turkey Erdogan if you gave grant money to individual artists to create art deglamourizing tobacco, you would see a bigger change in the culture faster than approaching it from a marketing angle only. In other words, some of the best contemporary artists in world are not incorporated, are not LLPs; are not charities and if you want subway art or train art or or airport art to deglamourize tobacco, the best results might be to become art patrons/ benefactors for private artists and commission specific anti-smoking "art" . [Similar to the poster art campaigns of U S government at times but a lot less expensive to your charitable foundations. ]

Here are some medical facts about smoking:

Quote: " Lung cancer is the leading cause of visceral cancer and of cancer-related deaths in the United States. ...Eighty to ninety percent of these cancers are caused by tobacco smoke , most importantly from cigarettes but also from pipes and cigars....For smokers the major determinant of risk of lung cancer is the number of cigarettes smoked per day. The relative risk rises from 5.5 for those who smoke 1 to 10 cigarettes a day, to 14.2 for 20 cigarettes a day, and to 20.4 for those who smoke 21-30 cigarettes a day. ...Ninety percent of patients with lung cancer have symptoms at the time of diagnosis and most of these symptoms are respiratory. They include cough, dyspnea [ difficulty breathing] chest pain, hemoptysis [coughing up blood] and symptoms related to postobstructive pneumonia... The appearance of a chronic cough with or without expectoration [coughing up phlegm or blood ] in an older smoker should raise a suspicion of lung cancer. " From medical textbook, "Principles of Ambulatory Medicine" edited by L Randol Barker, John R Burton and Philip Zieve, pg 678-679

From the CDC Morbidity and Mortality report for year 2013 : Quote: "During 2012–2013, an estimated one in five U.S. adults (50 million persons) currently used any tobacco product every day or some days, and an estimated one in four (60 million persons) used tobacco products every day, some days, or rarely." And "The 50th anniversary Surgeon General's report on the health consequences of smoking concluded that disease and deaths from tobacco use are overwhelmingly caused by cigarettes and other combusted products, and that rapid elimination of their use will dramatically reduce this burden (1). Additionally, the use of emerging tobacco products (e.g., e-cigarettes and water pipes/hookahs) was also evident and could be attributed to lower price relative to cigarettes; an increase in marketing, availability, and visibility; and the perception that they might be safer alternatives to cigarettes (1). Taken together, these findings underscore the importance of continued implementation of proven population-based interventions to address all forms of tobacco use, especially combustible products that currently account for the greatest public health burden."

From : http://www.cdc.gov/tobacco/campaign/tips/resources/data/cigarette-smoking-in-united-states.html :
Quote: "Tobacco use remains the single largest preventable cause of death and disease in the United States. Cigarette smoking kills more than 480,000 Americans each year, with more than 41,000 of these deaths from exposure to secondhand smoke. In addition, smoking-related illness in the United States costs more than $289 billion a year, including at least $133 billion in direct medical care for adults and $156 billion in lost productivity.1

From : http://www.surgeongeneral.gov/library/reports/50-years-of-progress/index.html has a download of full report of U S Surgeon General and a consumer booklet that is available.

http://www.cdc.gov/tobacco/data_statistics/sgr/2004/index.htm has downloads for how smoking causes or exacerbates other diseases including cancer, coronary heart disease, and stroke and is a virtual library on the subject.

This is not a comprehensive report by any stretch of imagination on the risks and dangers of using tobacco products. Indeed, whole books are written on the treatment of lung cancer and entire hospitals are dedicated to the treatment of cancer. This is intended to be an introduction to the public at large of the dangers of smoking, the symptoms of lung cancer and the resources available.
