00I can't sleep all night long. Hearing my sight, my mother asks me if I face the first case of birth failure. It's wrong but It's difficult to say what I confront this afternoon.02br

00A girl at my age was infected a sexually transmitted disease. Before giving a prescription , I carried out some propaganda to advise her to prevent from Aids. I couldn't imagine her violent reaction with a rude attitude:02br
02br
00-Every job has its own way to execute. You're a doctor, you've your doctor's way to do. I'm a prostitute, I 've my prostitute's way to do my job. Don't interfere my business. It's stupid to follow you. I'll have no customers ,be little in demand. Aids can't kill me at once but it's money,02br
02br
00. I felt defeated. I tried to explain the danger of this lethal disease but she didn't care about this. It's a waste of time. At the end, the elder midwife entered the room, interrupted this intime conversation and told her:02br
02br
00-It's better for you to go to the skin and venereal disease ward. You'll meet some male doctors.02br
02br
00It's self- love. I remember a story about the girl who likes adventures on the ocean. She wishes to go abroad like Jake in Titanic Film. Due to her self-love,she made up her mind to go to a tour in a small and uncomfortable ship with her economized sum of money for bribery instead of getting to the royal ship of her boyfriend, a nice boy who was ready to help her by showing a sign of swinging the keyring, his embarassing habit. But it's difficult to know why she couldn't imitate Jake to say goodbye to the point of departure like the third class people used to do in this elegant ship.In this destiny ship, she met her brother's classmate. Not only he neither received her bribery nor dimissed her from the overweight ship but also salvaged her after saving his wife and his child. Unfortunately,he failed to save the girl because of his continual driving for many days.They were drawn in the ocean. And after that there was a rumour around this catastrophe.02br
02br
00Self-love could drive people to the blind alley.A young girl this afternoon, regardless of death because of money is really a good condition to spread this lethal disease to the community. It's the first failure in my career. Sadly, I reread my memory about family planning . It got an excellent mark from the jury Dr NgocPhuong, a famous gynecologist with her concern about poor women in far away land, in mountainous tribes. She told us she couldn't hide her tears to see some roots of tree used as food for meals from a man of montainous tribe, carrying to her wife at the birth instead of rice.02br
02br
00Thinking about my first liar patient, an another girl at the same age of me. I can't forget the ray of hope toward me when the midwife proposed to remove her to the gynecologist hospital in the city because of the discharge of blood for a month. It reflexed something like a beggary and pain. Their parents must be received many years of deposit salary of the brosthel. I decided to responsible to her. No one could imagine what I found in her body: A bundle of dry roots and leaves caused the abnormal flow of blood. It's a production of the so -called "trees of houses, leaves of garden" in the bright neon sign advertisement every night of some entertainment resorts.02br
02br
00Sometimes a lie makes us more agreeable. Family planning is not only a limit sense of using method to decrease the number of child, contraception, avortement, sterilisation but also a series of activities to plan the iinterval between birth ,treatment of sterility, sexual education,and matrimonial advice. People always think woman, an object of attention to propaganda but it's good to reverse it's man the principal culprit of these sufferings.02br

0It's a bit hard to follow what you are talking about sometimes but to answer your questions02br
02br
00Is it phantasmagoria or introspection? neither02br
02br
001-Do you think what I said is a fantasma goria? no. 02br
02br
002-What do you think about self-love? I think you mean selfishness rather than self-love. Self love is a euphemism for masturbation whereas selfishness is where you think about only yourself and not other people.02br
02br
003_Does planning family need all these kinds of education? I think that family planning should indeed cover things such as contraception, avortement, (do you mean abortion? I've not heard of avortment) sterilisation. As far as the others go02br
02br
00to plan the interval between birth ,- isn't this contraception?02br
02br
00treatment of sterility - yes I agree.02br
02br
00sexual education, - yes I agree02br
02br
00 matrimonial advice - no I disagree here. This is a very specialised area and deals with the emotional and practical side of all aspects of relationships, whereas family planning should concern itself solely with *** and reproduction.02br
02br
00I agree that family planning has an important role to play with men as well as women. 02br
02br
00Notes on your writing: you have some odd word choices that I don't think are putting across the message you really mean and the parts that are particularly difficult to understand are: phantasmagoria or introspection; propaganda; execute; self- love; economized; swinging the keyring; destiny ship; received her bribery nor dimissed her from the overweight ship but also salvaged her; he failed to save the girl because of his continual driving ; drawn in the ocean; reread my memory; liar patient; It reflexed something like a beggary and pain; limit sense of using method ; avortement; culprit of these sufferings.0-

0Thanks for your help. I always face the interference between English and Vietnamese. Self-love is not self-abuse but it's not self-fish in our language, it's describe a state of a person who feels very, very hurt but I think you are right because you r English is better than me. Execute means work, do,I think I should use "do" "Economized' means simply she saved a small sum of money.Swinging the keyring means he has the habit to swing the keys in the keyring when he is embarassed, drawn has a mistake'drown:'Memory' means a graduated thesis, essay Liar patient is a patient whodidn't tell the truth about her situation because she's afraid of discrimination,It reflected something beggary and pain, limited sense is meaning of using method, culprit of these sufferings is the cause of these sufferingsPropaganda meansI'm a propagandist, I should persuade people to prevent from Aids, a part of family planning[treatment of sterility}Phantasmagoria means sequence of real imaginary images like that seen in a dream but it doesn't like because it's not in poem with metaphor. Introspection means I think about myself, my interior life.02br
