cococandy: I used to work in the ICU and I can tell you that what’s involved in keeping that woman’s body alive just so she can be used as an incubator is nothing short of horrendous.
Her body is actively trying to die and they’re doing everything they can to keep her in hell on earth just so she can be used to grow a fetus her family doesn’t even want.
The vasopressors to keep her blood pressure from bottoming out will turn her fingers and toes purple and they’ll eventually die and fall off. Why? Because vasopressors work but constricting the blood vessels and concentrating blood supply to the vital organs only. It’s a dire last resort solution that’s only intended to be used as a short term solution before the patient is stabilized or unfortunately passes on. In her case she’s gone so what they are doing is basically desecrating a corpse.
The ventilator she’s on is just a vector for all kinds of stuff to crawl down her throat and cause respiratory colonization. I guess that doesn’t matter now.
Pretty sure they have all kinds of tubes sticking out her as well. Arterial line, probably a swan ganz, fecal management systems, urinary catheter etc.
Most ICU nurses will make you promise to let them go if they ever find themselves in that situation.
Ridiculous pointless torture. I cannot just imagine being in this position either as the brain dead person on life support or the parent looking on. Absolutely horrendous. |

Lovelytyme: On the 9th Thursday,April 2025 when I was just washing my clothes outside and jejeli minding my business, that something remarkable happened. Before I go into detail of what happened, it should be understood that where I reside is a very well civilized environment so I don't expect such occurrence to arise A large bird from nowhere entered into the passage of my house. It was as though the bird was chased by something. I never waited as i took hold of the mop I saw around to pin it down to avoid it from flying away. I searched the whole house for whatever I could use to cage it. Actually, I noticed the bird was unique and that was why I decided to keep it. At last I was able to find a breakable plate racket whereby I quickly emptied the plates so that I could keep the bird safe in there. I succeeded and right now I can successfully celebrate the eighth day with my African grey parrot.It has started talking self. Our love for each other has no bound. Thanks for coming into my life from nowhere. Dude you've never seen a parrot before? |

Nope I used your favorite book of fairytales to show you are a hypocrite. You claim that lying is wrong but you lie and believe in a deceiver. Isn't that just so deliciously rich. Bwahahahahahaha! |

The person who needs a doctor is the one who believes fairytales are real instead of the fables they are meant to be. LoLz. |

NaijaGoBetter2: We used to pay our house rent monthly. There was also an option to reduce your rent if basic amenities like tap water weren’t available. But everything changed the moment democracy returned in 1999. That flexible system disappeared overnight.... Hmmmm, Back then, the government set the rent range based on the location. But now, landlords call the shots. No regulation. No control. Just skyrocketing prices. How did we go from structure to chaos so fast? Democracy really do us bad thing It's called capitalism aka free market. |

raumdeuter: You don't bring it back in hours, it takes time, these are examples of companies that have annouced their intentions to bring back
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/us-manufacturing-domestic-tariffs/
Abbott Laboratories Illinois-based medical device company Abbott Laboratories said in a statement Wednesday that a $500 million investment in manufacturing, research and development capabilities at plants in Illinois and Texas will "go live" by the end of the year. To support the expansion, Abbott plans to hire up to 300 workers across both states.
Apple Apple in February said that it's committed to spending more than $500 billion on expanding its U.S. manufacturing capabilities over four years.
TSMC Taiwanese semiconductor maker TSMC in March announced a $165 billion total investment in U.S. manufacturing capabilities. The investment augments an existing $65 billion investment in semiconductor manufacturing operations in Phoenix by $100 billion.
Roche Swiss pharmaceutical company Roche in April said it's committing $50 billion to growing its U.S. operations.
The funds will go toward building new research and development sites, and expanding existing manufacturing facilities in Indiana, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and California, the company said on April 21.
Nvidia Last week, American chip maker Nvidia announced that for this first time in the company's history, it will be manufacturing chips and AI supercomputers in the U.S.
Merck Drugmaker Merck is investing $1 billion to build a U.S. plant in Delaware. The move comes amid plans by President Trump to impose tariffs on pharmaceuticals, which would include taxes on imported ingredients used drug manufacturing.
IBM IBM on April 28 pledged to invest $150 billion in U.S. manufacturing over five years. At least $30 million will go toward research and development to further U.S.-based computer manufacturing, the computing giant said
Honda Motor Honda Motor this week said it is moving production of its Civic Hybrid Hatchback from Japan to the U.S., in the face of a barrage of tariffs by the Trump administration, including a 25% tariff on vehicles and auto parts imported into the U.S.
Hyundai Motor Company Hyundai in March announced a $21 billion commitment to investing in domestic manufacturing from 2025 to 2028. As part of that commitment, the company has pledged to put $9 billion toward expanding domestic automobile production to 1.2 million vehicles a year, it said.
Johnson & Johnson Johnson & Johnson is planning to invest more than $55 billion in new U.S. manufacturing facilities over four years. The investment represents a 25% increase compared with the previous four years, the health care company said in March. At least it is clear this is not any kind of quick fix. |

raumdeuter: The only reason Apple went abroad is because they can manufacture for cheap and hope to bring it, when you have to Bring it into America and pay a tariff on it, the advantage you were seeking in China has already been eroded
It then makes sense to manufacture in America and not having to deal with supply chain shipping issues when there is no advantage to manufacturing abroad anymore
That is why some manufacturers are starting to come back into the country. That is why even the EU placed a tariff on China or why are they fighting back against China?
It took 40yrs of lax leadership to get to this point, Its mischievous to be asking why have 40yrs of ruins not been fixed in 40days
The ruler the rest of the world respect, who wont be their mumu but stand for America Which ones have come back into the US? |
