Euthanasia is the practice of causing the death of a patient for medical reasons, such as an incurable disease associated with suffering or unbearable pain.
Euthanasia is the painless killing of a patient suffering from an incurable and painful disease or in an irreversible coma. There are different types of Euthanasia voluntary or involuntary.
It's all about one's choice,situation,condition and much more.It is OK if someone's one's disease is incurable choose a path of euthanasia. But If 1% chance is there just go for saving his life.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.

Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

presentation on euthanasia
1. Life comes with a
price tag, doesn’t
it???
Then why just let
it go??
2. The scissors and
the cutting of
the rose are
symbolic. If you
would mind
cutting the
beautiful flower,
would you not
think twice
before ending a
life???
3. EUTHANASIA
The act of putting to death
silently or allowing to die is
called Euthanasia.
6. Passive euthanasia entails the withholding of common treatments, such as antibiotics, necessary for the continuance of life
Difference between
active and passive
euthanasia
Active euthanasia Passive
entails the use of euthanasia
lethal entails the
substances or withholding of
forces, such as common
giving a lethal treatments, such
injection, to kill as antibiotics,
and is the most
controversial necessary for
means. the continuance
of life
7. Proponents of Opponents of
euthanasia say…. euthanasia
counter
1> right to self
determination
1> not all deaths are
painful.
2> death is better
than to suffer.
2> alternatives, like

8. The dilemma
How could the doctor
possibly inflict death on
someone he tirelessly strived
for??
Confused about what am I tawkngabt in the morning?? Umm maybe…but tht is all I wanted..to shed some li8 on hw important life is to all of us..wht we ve as a gftfrm god shudnt be let gone in any manner..Good morning to one n all present out here….istnd here wid a motive of shedding sm li8 on the very raging topic…..”EUTHANASIA”….
Life in all forms is beautiful…god sent us on the earth to blossom n grow…not to end up on the death bed…death bed which too is a forced one…”gifted” by others.
Jus b4 I begin..cud I jus see sm hands as to hw mnyhv any idea abt what excatly is euthanasia??Thts a gud majority of ppl out there….strtngwid ,,, euthanasia is…
The act of letting go of the painedsoul,relieving the crippled ones of their misery…But does letting go is all we can do? ? s mercy killing humane? Do we have the right to assess whether a life is worth living? Should euthanasia be practiced only in the terminally ill people or for the debilitated and mentally ill too? In this presentation, we get into the heart of the matter by looking at the pros and cons of euthanasia.
here are the three ways in which euthanasia s classified into..Voluntary-Euthanasia conducted with the consent of the patient is termed voluntary euthanasia. Non voluntary-Euthanasia conducted where the consent of the patient is unavailable is termed non-voluntary euthanasia. Examples include child euthanasia, which is illegal worldwide but decriminalised under certain specific circumstances in the Netherlands under the Groningen Protocol.Involuntary-Euthanasia conducted against the will of the patient is termed involuntary euthanasia.Othr two types are there even…(nxt slide then)
Active and passive euthanasia…The difference between them being (jus read out watevr is written on the slide..but slowly)
Euthanasia or mercy killing has its own share of proponents and opponents jus like any other thing…They have their own views wich are… (compare point by point)
Euthanasia is always administered by the doctor. Herein lied the real question for the docs..to do or no to???
Pie chart to show you abt the mentality or opinion of doctors regardngadministerng f euthanasia

Ststisticsregardng suicide abortion n euthanasia..
Here on the screen we c two women. Two entirely different (tell their stries a bit)What wud u say?? Do they have to live inflicting the pain on them wid days gone by or jus set their souls free??
At last I wud like to leave u wid the question wichmit stir any effect in u…--- is euthanasia right in to be banned or is the pain f the patient to b endured more?? Yes, it may seem sad to see the one we love suffer, but at the end of the day, can we take matters into our own hands and decide to end another life? Well, it's hard to say! When there is no further hope f revival…shud we just pull the plug?? Its up for u to decide.
