A quiet corner room

23 岁女人走进一个紧急情况部门。Shes 22 星期怀孕，并且她斜面呼吸。她的医生咕哝当她的头脑在 differentials 和她的手上流，使消除顾虑的一些东西传递一个 et 试管。在这时刻的耐心的跷跷板，和这个房间拿深 breath.The 23

A 23 year old woman walks into an emergency department. She＇s 22 weeks pregnant, and she can＇t breathe. Her doctor mumbles something reassuring as her mind pours over differentials and her hand passes an ET tube. The patient teeters on this moment, and the room takes a deep breath. The 23 year old has gone from a person to a body that doctors try to keep from becoming a corpse. A heart, two lungs, two kidneys, and one uterus containing another heart, two lungs, two kidneys, and another uterus. On the drive home, I will wonder what constitutes a life. Is a patient still alive if a machine bypasses her heart and lungs？ Is a patient still a person when she will die if doctors turn off her ＂epi drip＂？ But these questions come later.
