A  DREAMED WISH

"I always dreamt of having and bringing up my own children. But I never met that special guy,  -  at least, I thought I did (years ago), but he wasn't committed.  Sometimes I wished I had tricked him into making me pregnant.  I'm too old to bear children now, and I couldn't afford to bring any up alone, so it's no good adopting (I'm still single).  However, I do work with children, which as some compensations."

This is the voice of a lot of women around the world.Have you thought in the impotence that one mother has when she can't have a baby?? If you haven't been in this situation, you are not going to realise it, it is very difficult to put your mind in this situation. Sometimes we think that it is not a big problem, that this is a simple whim, but as you know humans would be very selfish, not for us but sometimes yes for the rest of the population. Fortunately we have a lot of involved people in the physiology and the medicine and thanks to them some problems have been vanished in the air, like the teardrops that were slating in the face of this woman. They have done a big development in the last years in the problem of the fertilisation, the man who did a big step in this unknown world is Robert G. Edwards, pioneer in reproductive medicine and in-vitro fertilisation. Looking for the winners of the Nobel prizes we have found different people winner of different themes, like physics, chemistry, literature, peace, economics, and the last which I have chosen, physiology and medicine. I recommend you to investigate in your own about the invent of the future but before starting the exploration here you have the open door to the mysteries of the creator of the in-vitro reproduction. 

The birth of Louise Brown, the world's first 'test-tube baby', at 11:47 pm on 25 July 1978 at the Oldham General Hospital made medical history: in vitro fertilisation meant a new way to help infertile couples who formerly had no possibility of having a baby.

In the in-vitro fertilisation, when medical conditions prevent the sperm from reaching the egg, our skilled physicians and laboratory staff are here to assist. Your eggs are retrieved, inseminated in our lab with semen from your partner or a donor, and then inserted back into your uterus as embryos. While every woman's cycle is unique, the following is a general outline of the steps involved during a cycle of in vitro fertilisation. 

Sir Robert Geoffrey Edwards, was an English physiologist and pioneer in this in-vitro fertilisation. With surgeon Patrick Steptoe, he founded  the first IVF program for infertile patients and trained other scientists in their techniques. Edwards was the founding editor in chief of Human reproduction in 1986. In 2010, Edwards was awarded the Novel prize in physiology or medicine "for the development of in vitro fertilisation".

Edwards began his work in the late 1950s, conducting experiments with scientist (and Edwards' future wife) Ruth Fowler, in which they were able to alter the ovulation time in mice.

Edwards extracted human eggs and documented the time line of human egg maturation in his laboratory. In 1969 he accomplished the first fertilisation of a human egg outside a human body, and in 1972 he became the first scientist to implant an in vitro fertilised human egg in the womb. He conducted dozens of implantations over several years, yielding no pregnancies, as Edwards and Steptoe tinkered with the hormones and other conditions that could make the procedure lead to pregnancy. A late 1977 implantation led to the birth of Louise Brown, a normal, healthy child, the following summer.

IVF clinics play a vital role in infertile couple´s life. It is the only destination that provides them appropriate solution based on their exact solution of infertility. However, some couples seek natural remedies which also shown good results, but there is no evidence yet noticed on how these remedies work. Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes, low sperm count, ovarian issues and other reproductive health problems are some major reasons that do no allow couple's to conceive naturally. 

Since the birth of Louise Brown, refinements in technology have increased pregnancy rates and it is estimated that in 2010 about 4 million children have been born by IVF,with approximately 170,000 coming from donated oocyte and embryos. This has been a big step to the mysteries or the fertilisation problems, until nowadays this method has been very successful and because of that a lot of couple's had reached their dreams. The feeling of becoming parents is wordless, there is no a word that can describe this feeling in the moment you see your baby coming to the world. Every day you go out and see women pushing their strollers, and pregnant women are everywhere. Sometimes it feels as if it's all you see. You see what you need or want more when you want it so, and it's hard to see especially when you know that you cannot just make it happen. 

This can be very heart breaking for the couples who are unable to conceive naturally, but we don't have to worry, we are not going to see the teardrops of the woman mentioned in the first lines, this has been finished, thanks to people like Robert G. Edwards, that make a smile from a sad look.

Good morning readers!!

We have entered in the winter!! The mind maps are diagrams used to classify, visualize, generate and structure ideas and they are very useful for the students to make drawings. You are at home bored with the book in the front and looking from the window to the leaves falling from the trees?? I propose you to sign up an account in  mind42, to take a sweet cup of chocolate and with the honey in your lips to start doing a diagram. Later you will tell me if this method works!! If you want I have post my own mind map. Three, two, one...

The silhouette of the shiver

Hello readers!!

In this week we have done 9 collaborative stories, that is, we have written stories together. My class mate and me have done this Thriller storie, the silhouette of the shiver. Our purpose  was a little bit different, but with all the imagination of our Ict class the storie has taken a different way and it is fine. All the things with more help, always better!!!




A man got up of his bed and the first thing that he saw for his surprise was a letter that it was in the little table of his bedroom and he took carefully and at the same time worried with his bony and skeletal fingers. He didn’t know what

to do with the anonymous envelope, it was quite big and he was sure that it hides more than a simple words, this could change his future in one open and close eyes. The bedroom was absolutely old, without looked after. The man put with a frivolous care the glass eye that was floating seconds before in a bowl, for him this was an ordinary and common effort, an effort that started since he received the first letter.


He decided to open the letter. Inside the letter he found a finger with a note. In the note was written a sentence “You find the killer of my son or I will say your secret to the authority of the city, and then you and your family will die”. Evaristo was preoccupied. Nobody knew his secret before, except his servant. The first thing he did when he opened and read the letter was to go to his servant and he asked for help.


The servant didn’t know anything about the letter and he believed him because when he was his servant, Evaristo noticed that the servant had never lied to him. Evaristo asked to help him with the case, and the servant accepted very nicely. They didn’t know what to do and they started thinking. Evaristo noticed that he told his secret to somebody before he told to his servant.


Because of the secret he had, he was very deprimited. So to forgot his pains he started drinking beer one after the other. He was very drunk when he started to say things without thinking what was saying. He remembered that he saw a man with a strange aspect and he started to talk with him. The boy was asking a lot of things about his live to Evaristo and caused by the alcohol Evaristo told him everything. Including the secret he had.


While he was remembering that, he realize that he didn’t know anything about the strange man, and he neither remember his face. He was involved in a dangerous situation and he had to do something as quickly as he can. He didn’t know how to start investigating and he decided to turn to a detective that he know. Immediately, Evaristo left the house and took the way to the police station. He found it closed and he returned home to relax due to his tiredness. There he found a new letter.


He started worrying, he decided to not open the letter. He didn’t feel safe so he went to the wardrobe and he took his gun. Suddenly he heard:

- Evaristo, are you sure? Its not a good idea to take the gun.- Evaristo was becoming mad, he couldn’t see anybody talking to him. And he answered:

- If you want to talk to me, talk be face to face!.- He waited for 3 seconds. After he noticed that something was walking backwards him. He didn’t do anything, he just looked back and he saw himself in the other side of the mirror, and suddenly, he saw a ghost hand. He looked better, and he saw a ghost talking to his hear:

-Evaristo, now that I know your secret, don’t you think that its a bad idea to shoot that gun?

Evaristo was already mad, so he put his hand in his pocket to take the weapon but it was too late, the ghost had already taken a long knife, and it inserted in Evaristo’s heard saying with a threatening voice:

-This is my revenge for my death son!

The ghost completed his revenge but there was a witness,
 the butler. The butler was in the kitchen preparing the dinner, suddenly he noticed that the air was getting cold, and he felt a shiver. All the objects of the room started to shake and then, he saw the ghost. He got scared he started to run, he took the phone and called the police but before he could say a thing the ghost pull him back and throw him to the floor. The ghost hold him from the throat and squeezed until the butler’s throat explode. Suddenly the ghost heard the sound of the police siren’s.



The police was knocking the door, before they entered into the room the ghost was hidden behind the armchair. Immediately, the ghost saw a police emblem for the slit of the wardrobe. Quietly and with an indescriptible care, with his ghost starched hand took the uniform of a police, the first of the two victims. He wore the uniform and took a diary that seems interesant. He started talking with the polices and he disappeared like an ordinary police, covered with sirens until his silhouette passed unnoticed in the horizon.

Social websites

A click in the button of enter, a simple piece of plastic can be an open door to a new era of life but also a big source of problems. Thinking before making this step, can be a way of preventing the risks. Nowadays someone that hasn't an account in a social website is a primitive person. The people that hasn't knowledge about computers and internet can be of the group of the fourth world, people without education . We have the habit of doing all the things with the computer or the Mobile phone, sometimes even speaking by the whats app when your friend is less than one metre close to you. The worst thing is that this is not only an education problem, this can be the start of an addiction, addiction that goes increasing.In the case of underaged people this problems can be solutioned by our parents, but unfortunately, if we don't tell them the truth fast, the ball is going to increase and increase until becames an enormous ball, a ball that is not in our hands, nor in our parents hands. The benefits of this lazy boxes are a lot, we can't count them with our hands, whereas the_ are limited but four steps stronger. Stop to think, how we are more in danger, in the front of our phisically or in front of her virtually??

All the time you put some information or a picture in the social websites, like Twitter, Facebook and Tuenti this can be seen by people you don't know, people that can have an evil and wicked goal of you. Don't put photos that give evidence of something, put normal pictures took with your friends, no more.

Text to see how big the addiction can be

Do you now that in front of you the computer has a camera? This camera is very useful to speak with friends or familiars that live very far away of you , but it puts in danger to you. Don't accept and open the camera to people that you don't know, there are a lot of cases of complaints of teenagers of abuses. Switch the camera all the times you don't need it.


And what you say about a traditional friend or a friend in this websites? A real friend is a person you know since you were a child , however a virtual friend is sometimes, an always sometimes, an unknown people and all this is the cause of this unrepairable problem. Look at your screens, I am sure that five of ten friends are never seen people.  

All this we have said, the friends, the cameras and the pictures can be more safe if we put the private account. The computers are totally of our freedom, but we are the owners of our freedom, we built the columns of our houses as we like it. But is better if this "as we like it" is more limited to our ideas. The technology can't take us behind it, we have to take the bull from his horns. This freedom is surrounded BY paedophiles and predators. Remenber that we are a simple screw in a huge building full of millions and millions of screws, in the incalculable expansion of internet.

The future in our hands ?

Our world, our environment, our lives, our mother earth is changing everyday and all because of the overexploitation of a big energy resource, our world. We are running out of  the energy sources little by little, but this small percentage will be a big problem in the future. Besides, all the planet is a big puzzle, when we  do a puzzle is enough the lack of one piece to damage the other ninety nine pieces. So imagine that this puzzle is the world. In the case of Amazonia, the big forest, they are cutting and destroying all the trees, only with the objective of making more and more paper. The animals and plants that live in cooperation with this trees died and the animals that eat this plants don't have food so they migrate in search of food. Also the civilisation that lives in Amazonia is damaged, they don't have meet to eat because of the migration of the animals and they don't have wood to make fire. So the ecosystem is broken and all because of the avaricious mind of the multinationals.

Other big brain teaser is the future of the Antarctica. The global warming is melting all the ice of the polar circle and the temperature is fluctuating. All is due to the consumption of products that contain carbon dioxide and other polluters. The penguins and birds are dieing, they don't have food so they go invading other habitats and the polar bears are dieing also because they don't have meet to eat. This problem doesn't affect only to the Antarctica life, in some years the water quantity is going to rise, sometimes making floods in our towns.

And what about the recycling? Are we sure of the things that we consume?Think about the glass  bottle that you have thrown in the garbage. How about its future? This bottles disintegrate in 5000 years so we can recycle them. When we use the bottle we trow it  to the garbage and in the factory they melt the glass in high temperatures , they manipulate it and there is the new bottle, prepared for a second use. And this can be applied in a lot of products.

Do you want a polluted breath? Our health is exposed to the contamination that we make with the cars, the factories, power plants and the burning of fossil fuels. Carbon dioxide, is the main pollutant that is warming Earth. We have to do something in order to take our carbon footprint out of the atmosphere. We will have to use less the car and more the buses and other alternatives like the bicycle. The government have to put higher taxes in gas and gasoline, in order to be more consequent.

 Do you think that the future is in our hands? God save the Earth??
