In which fundamental ways did the Arthurian legend differ from known facts? The place occupied by the King Arthur story seems to be midway between myth and reality. While early indications of his legend dating back to the sixth century‚ which correspond to the so-called Dark Ages of Britain‚ it has suffered such infinite variation to date that is virtually impossible to disentangle reality from fantasy.

Hitting is a major component of contact sports‚ and there are often arguments regarding whether or not for instance‚ body checking‚ should be banned in minor league games.

This week in clinical I was assigned a patient with contact precaution. I had never taken care of a patient who was on contact precaution‚ so I became very terrified. I didn’t know what to expect. I walked into the room wearing my PPE‚ shaking and expecting for the patient to be miserable because they are in a room alone and everyone that meets them has to wear that yellow gown. To my surprise‚ the patient was opposite of what I was thinking. The patient’s positive attitude‚ small stories‚ and funny
