Why Do Women Need Control Over Their Bodies? Understanding Abortion Laws in India
The issue of abortion has consistently sparked considerable debate and conversation. Some individuals advocate for the rights of mothers or pregnant women to choose to continue with the pregnancy or terminate it; conversely, others believe that a foetus is more than just a mere collection of cells, viewing it as a living entity with its own life, deserving of individual rights and freedoms separate from those of the pregnant woman. A notable instance when personal freedoms were at risk was when women's access to safe abortion services was jeopardized. For many years, until 1971, India deemed abortion criminal and referred to it as “intentionally causing miscarriage.” Voluntary abortion, except in cases where the pregnant woman's life was endangered, could result in a punishment of up to three years in prison, a monetary fine, or both.

Furthermore, this is not a sentimental tirade about "the good old days" when people really spoke to each other in person without getting sidetracked by their phones (well, maybe it is a little). But pay attention: if technology is enabling us to communicate more than ever before, it is also gradually undermining one of our most vital abilities: the capacity for attentive listening.

Welcoming the Sabbath
Tonight is Friday night and at sundown, Sabbath began. I was listening to one of my favorite Christian playlists, while trying not to cry, and thinking back to something a good friend said, "good things come to good people." My life has been throwing one thing after another at me - which makes me feel insane and started to question if maybe deep down I am a terrible person who is just now getting what they deserve.

KIDNEY TRANSPLANTS
In the 1930s doctors started testing a new procedure. Once believed to be impossible in medicine organ transplants are now a reality. Several groundbreaking surgeons worked on kidney transplants. They would take a healthy kidney from a living person or someone who had just passed away and put it into a patient who was close to death because of kidney failure. However these early surgeries had a big challenge: patients' immune systems would quickly see the new kidney as something strange and begin to attack it. Only a small number of patients lived beyond the first few days.
