Life account biography

Have jotted the main points in point form and need your help to link them up into a professional life account biography that is able to capture the audience and touch their hearts. This is an account of someone who’s fate turn for the worse right after her marriage. The sacrifices she made. She has 2 elder brothers but they shifted out. There were minimal help from them in taking care of the father. She had to take up the family responsibility financially and physically. Here are the points:

– Got married in 2019, 31st March
– Shortly after, in April, Dad was hospitalised and was diagnosed with chronic heart failure, end stage kidney disease, heart arrhythmia which require pacemaker installer in this chest.
– The 9 days worth of hospitalisation bill amounted to 120k and none of the kids were willing to help. No choice, my husband took the initiative to pay the bill on top of our wedding a month ago. My dad was not subsided by any insurance (all thanks to one of my cousins who used to be an insurance agent. He changed my parents existing hospitalisation policies to other investment policies and left my poor parents with minimal medical coverage)
– During this challenging and stressful period, I’ve developed multiple panic attacks that causes strong nausea whenever i wake up in the morning and no medication seems to help. This lasted for the next 4 months.
– After my dad’s discharge, my husband and I became the main caregiver of my dad.
– We have our own house but we couldnt stay. We had to be cramped in a very small study room (since Andy’s room has bern fully occupied with boxes of precious moments and Lawrence hasnt shifted out yet) and we slept there for the next 3 years.
– My daily life revolves around my dad. Preparing his daily medication and meals for him, controlling his water intake
– Whenever he is down with a fever or fall down, he will lose his strength to walk completely and we have to assist him and shower him.
– He is not an easy man to deal with. He does things that he is not supposed to do and eat things that will affect his health directly. I spend the day closely monitoring him and head to work in the evening
– Staycation has never been something that i can enjoy with my husband. If we leave home, no one will take over in taking care of him.
– Our couple time has been sacrificed ever since we got married. We did not have time for ourselves except on weekend during meal time.
– In the evening, my husband had to force an unwillingly father in law to go for a 30 mins exercise.
– 2021 his condition deteriorated further. He had mild stroke and was diagnosed with dementia 2 months later. Shortly after he was hospitalised due to bacteria infection in his blood.
– After these episode, he became fully dependent on us. Shouting and demanding for things ever min. I did not even have time for myself
– Assisting him from point to point, showering him, feeding him, ensuring he eats enough, or doesnt pick his food.
– He wakes up every 30’mins in the middle of the night and request for food. We cant get our peaceful rest
– Despite having no strength to walk, he stubbornly gets out of bed and kept walking around the house without sparing a thought for the caregiver. The min he falls, he will give you 100% of his body with zero help on his end, to carry him up. He is 88kg.
– Relatives around us have no idea what we are going through and kept asking why my husband and i still doesnt wanna start family planning and have a baby. Do we have the time? Are we ready financially? On top of my dad’s costly medical expenses that we are paying 6k every month without fail? No one knows and people jumped into conclusion that its most probably we cant conceive.
– Everyday, i wake up at 7:30am to an angry old man demanding for breakfast. Should the breakfast be something that is not pleasing to him, he will start scolding vulgarities. No choice, he has a restricted diet, we just had to bite the bullet and make sure he doesnt demand his way but to eat the decent breakfast that he should be eating. I will then start to prepare lunch ingredients and cook lunch. Each meal there will be 3-4 dishes with 1 soup. However, he doesnt like homecook food and only wants to eat out. We dont want to inculcate such bad habit in him and continue to prepare home cooked food. The only time we get outside food for him is during the weekends. Hence on weekdays, every meal is a struggle with him. He yell and make a big fuss, spit food, refuse food and that used up a lot of our time.

Calculating Surplus and Introduction to Dead Weight Loss

By how much did total surplus fall when the market became less competitive? This is often referred to as the deadweight loss of imperfect competition. Other market failures such as externalities can also cause a deadweight loss. The next module will explore the deadweight loss associated with a tax.

sociology how society has changed over time

o‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌r this Argument Paper you need to write a 1500-word paper (about five and a half double-spaced pages). The first line of your paper should state an argument that the reader can either agree or disagree with. I expect and require that your first sentence of your paper begins “I argue that…”. Your classmates will be asked in their feedback papers to either agree or disagree with your argument, so this is an important aspect of your paper. The rest of your paper should be used to both demonstrate your mastery/understanding of the assigned material, and persuade the reader of your argument. You are encouraged to address the following questions as related to yourself, and potentially others, in a‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌ way that reflects your lived experience: Several of the reading and associated presentations discuss how society has changed over time (e.g. Marx, Weber, Durkheim, Tonnies, Simmel, and Sahlins). Discuss these various arguments and how you feel about that theorized changes. To what degree do you feel these changes are positive or negative? Which of these theories seem to reflect changes you see in our society, and which seem misguide or inaccurate? There are various readings and associated presentations that are critical of capitalism (. Marx and Sahlins), and others that are pro-capitalist (Davis & Moore and Rand). Discuss these various theories and provide your informed judgment of this ‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌debate.

Equifax, Experian, TransUnion

F‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌urther to our discussion of intangible or hidden risk, please search the annual reports or management reports [what is publicly available on the internet] of one of these credit agencies prior to February 2017 to determine the importance, level of priority and attention the company placed on protection of confidentiality records and data sources, cyber security investment and preventive steps taken to undermine the potential for hacking and to prevent data breaches. Did they discuss the amount of money spent or levels of security to protect their sources? W‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌as this priority one in their business strategy? Did they care? Knowing what you know now about the 160 million names that were breached in the UK and US, do you think if you were in charge that you would have been done more to protect the reputational capital of the enterprise? More recently a medical records company was hacked and consumer medical records were extracted….even more recently a law firm’s documents were accessed, including litigation documents [1/2/2022]. But the Equifax security breach is one of the most public examples of cyber theft‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‌‌.
