Answer: Have had some surgeries

Explanation:

Ask him what day and time you have to be where

What should you bring, clothing, paperwork IDS cards

If you have not been there get good directions and the phone number of the doctor and his office

Tell him what existing meds you may be on in case they may not cope with this surgery.

How long will it take?

How much time will you be in the hospital post-surgery

Should you eat or drink anything before this surgery happens usually it is. " NO " you can drink water.

How long will you be out of work if you have a job...

How will your life change, will you lose anything like walking or picking up things with your hand? or will you have constant pain or gain weight?

Will there be a lot of pain after surgery YES !!!!!!! Tylenol did not cut it !!!

Ask him what is he going to do like what is he going to cut

is he going to be using microscopic technologies (like making 3 cuts and taking out my appendix and then gluing shut and leaving a very clean and tiny line?)

Or is he going to cut tendons (and leave 159 stitches and stop you from working for two years as you need a lot of Occupational Recovery and Physical Therapy cos you can't use your hand at all?)

Find out if he is going to put you on drugs cos of this and the side effects if any.

And HOW LONG does she or he expect you to heal ???

Which of the following correctly punctuates an essential expression? Architecture, so popular with Native Americans, is still a

valentinak56 [21]

The two examples which correctly punctuate an essential expression or element in the sentence are:

Architecture, so popular with Native Americans, is still a flourishing art.

Mexico, where sports are popular, has hosted the Olympic Games at the World Cup.

Some constituents that alter a sentence are indispensable and restrict the meaning of an altered word or prhase, whereas others aren't indispensable and don't affect its meaning. The first ones are separated from the main idea using commas.

Mexico City is home to several museums that display the country’s past. Here we don't have any non essential element.

The National Historical Museum, which is in Chapultepec Castle, is concerned with Mexico’s history since the Spanish conquest. Here, information can't be ommited and in fact, shouldn't be set off with comas, since such expression contains essential information (it is not any National Historic Museum but the National Historic Museum which is in Chapultepec Castle).

grigory [225]

One of the many persuasive messages of President Mandela's speech :
“I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it . The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.” He then continued " if you’re afraid; it’s normal, you’re still a brave person. What you need to do next is to conquer that fear by taking action." He attempt to convince people by his technique of persuasion. By anticipating an audience’s questions, He confront the question in their mind. And he answer their question. This connects with people because it builds trust, people see that He understand their view, and makes new space in their mind for his message.
