Taking Care
From a very early age, I knew I wanted to be a nurse. My mother was a nurse and I have always 1 her and the way she took care of everyone. I wanted to be just like her.
So, here I am, a 2 for the last seven years. I love my work. Now, my father is quite 3 . He is 71 and has heart failure, and a lot of other medical 4 . Up until April of this year, he was able to live alone, drive, and 5 all of his own needs. His health has broken sown swiftly. I’m the only girl out of the five children. Being the only girl and a nurse 6 me at the top of the caregiver list. Taking care of a sick parent is very 7 , not at all like taking care of other patients. I have to 8 my own family to be here with Dad. I know this is 9 I need to be but it is still hard. I 10 abut 12-15 hours day taking care of him. I want to spend all of the time that I can with him because I know that our 11 left together is short.
At the same time, I find myself 12 that my brothers don’t help more. Sometimes, it is days between their 13 . they all have families of their own and busy lives but…so do I. My eldest brother does help some. He 14 at night. He comes in at 8 or 9pm and lets me go home. But he is up and 15 to hit the road at about 6 am. My 16 brothers pop in for 10-15 minute visits. It is 17 annoying. They say they 18 stand “to see Daddy this way” which I understand. It hurts me to see him so sick 19 weak, too. But …he’s our Dad. He has taken care of us our whole lives. I just 20 like we should all do our part to take care of him now.

Rare birds in the UK have been living far better than the more common birds over the last decade due to the efforts of conservation organizations, according to a new assessment.
The research shows almost 60% of the 63 rare birds that live in the UK have increased over the last 10 years.
By contrast, only about one third of common species have increased over the same period.Just 28% of rare birds have decreased over the same period, compared with four out of every 10 common birds.The rare birds described in the assessment with increasing populations include the osprey (鹗) and corncrake (秧鸡).All of these birds are subject to conservation action.
The declining common birds include the nightingale, swift (雨燕), house sparrow and red grouse (苏格兰雷鸟).These are suffering declines for a variety of reasons, including changes in farming practices.
Dr David Noble, from the British Trust for Ornithology, said: “That some of our rarer birds have responded to targeted conservation action is great news.It shows just what can be achieved.What we need to do now is to continue the good work and use some of the lessons we have learned to help our more common birds.”
Dr Mark Avery, the conservation director of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB), said: “Over the last decade we've enjoyed some great conservation successes, including removing some threatened species from the World Conservation Union's Red List of Thratened Animals and increasing the populations of red kite, osprey, etc.However, these successes are countered (抵消) by continued declines of some widespread species.”
