This movie called My Sister’s keeper is a film that is all about a couple’s life that has a daughter named Kate. Kate was diagnosed with promyelocytic leukemia. Promyelocytic leukemia (PL) is a malignancy of the bone marrow in which there is a lack or insufficiency of mature blood cells in the myeloid line of cells and an excess of immature cells called promyelocytes. PL is due to a translocation (an exchange of chromosome material) between chromosomes 15 and 17 which is symbolized t(15; 17). This translocation is not a mere marker of PL. It is the cause of PL (MedicineNet, n.d.). Gordon’s functional health assessment pattern was use in this presentation. The patient’s culture, geographic, religious, ethnic or spiritual and sexual concerns

On February 1, 1951 Henrietta visited John Hopkins because of a painful knot in her cervix and nonstop vaginal bleeding. After her exam, she was diagnosed with cervical cancer. Cells from her tumor were removed without her consent or knowledge for research purposes Skloot states, “no one had told Henrietta that TeLinde was collecting samples or asked if she wanted to be a donor” (33). Those cells would eventually become the first immortal cells, which would create a big breakthrough in science and medical vaccines.

There are various sections in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms that articulate the rights of Alotta Gannja. According to the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (1982), “everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of the person and the right now to be deprived thereof except in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice” (p.111). Another right that Alotta Gannja has under by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (1982) would be “any person charged with an offence has the right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty according to law in a fair and public hearing by an independent and impartial tribunal” (p.111).

He proposed they contact the Lacks children to request samples from them so they could compare their DNA to the HeLa cells. When asked if informed consent had been given, McKusick replied, “I suspect there was no effort to explain anything in great detail. But I don’t believe anyone would have told them we were testing for cancer because that wasn’t the case” (183). Nevertheless, this is what the Lacks believed for years, causing Deborah to panic as she had long feared developing the same cancer that had killed her

Jessie Quinn and Gregg Gordon were diagnosed with an acute myeloid leukemia that is the type of blood cancer with a fast progression (Berger, 2016). Besides the courses of chemotherapy and radiation, they both needed a bone-marrow transplant. Jessie Quinn did not get the match because of her mixed racial heritage. Berger states that the same situation happened with Gregg Gordon – no perfect donor match. In addition, Berger tells that a patient’s likelihood of finding a donor match on their registry ranges from 66 to 97 percent, depending on ethnic background.

In the year of 1989, an infant named Eric was born. However, he wasn’t your mediocre child that everyone hopes for. He was fairly sick, which was because doctors and hematologists found out he had anemia. He was suffering shortness of breath and fatigue, due to him not having enough red blood cells being produced in order for him to survive. It was because he has a very rare case of anemia called Diamond Blackfan anemia. This is where the bone marrow fails to function. He was expected to only live for 6 years.

The tragic news of Anissa’s leukemia and striving to find the cure or the right match gave the family the prospect to work together or understand one another in a variety of standings. The Ayala’s family needed emotional support during that tough time when they were stunned by the atrocious news of their teenage daughter who developed leukemia. This could mean offering support through attentive listening instead of critiquing the family’s decision. Therefore, the family endured the public’s detractors by adhering on to their faith, love, respect, and compassion for each other. Although the public criticisms were intense, Ayala’s family did not lose sight in a caring boldness toward bringing a fresh life into the light. It might have been harsh for the Ayala’s family to digest what the world had thrown at them, but the family’s great relationship brought to an end the long-term healing.

These cells, later known as HeLa cells would go on to cure diseases like Polio. The cells they had taken were studied by doctors who were trying to find cells that would continue to reproduce, and when hers did they were astonished. The debate about these cells comes from the fact that she didn’t give consent for the withdrawal of her cells and her family wasn’t compensated. So the real question… Was it ethical to take her cells without her knowledge even though they have made hundreds of medical advancements? It was both ethical and not ethical because yes, it went on to cure polio and is in testing for many other uncured diseases today, but her family was not compensated for this traumatic experience and she was not treated like a real human being because of the color of her

Leukemia was diagnosed for the first time in Edinburgh by John Bennett. Later in 1868, a vital discovery was made about changes in bone marrow and the red blood cells on leukemic patients. “The earliest report of the illness to have been made by Velpeau. Velpeau reported a case of a 63 year old woman who had a fever, swollen stomach, as well as being generally weak” (Thomas 63). At the time they have not discovered leukemia, so they were unsure what it was. Scientist has also found dinosaur bones from over millions of years old that had leukemia. Neumann discovered that changes in bone marrow are linked with the source of blood. Leukemia comes from Greek words “leuko” and “Heima” that means white blood. The Greeks were given credit for leukemia. “Leukemia is a cancer of blood and bone marrow. It affects white blood cells called lymphocytes” (Childhood, Pediatric). Leukemia is started when the DNA of white cells are mutated or damaged. A child that has a sibling with leukemia has a greater chance of developing it than someone without a sibling but the risk is still low. The risk of a twin to developing leukemia is a lot greater than just being siblings. Leukemia is one deadliest cancers. There are more than 300,000 americans living with this cancer. There are about 150 people diagnosed with leukemia us the U.S and about 70 people die everyday. This cancer is more common for children who are Hispanic and adolescents with the five
