Art


The term art is generally used to explain a scrupulous type of creative production generated by human beings, and the term normally implies some degrees of aesthetic values. An artist makes a work of art for various purposes, such as creating an understanding for others or as part of a sacrament. There is no general agreed-upon definition of art, since defining the boundaries of "art" is subjective, but the impetus for art is often known as human creativity.

Art is that which is made with the intention of stimulating the human senses as well as the human mind and or spirit. An artwork is normally assessed in quality by the amount of stimulation it brings about. The impact it has on people, the amount of people that can be related to it, the degree of their appreciation, and the effect or influence it has or has had in the past, and all accrue to the 'degree of art.' Most art that are widely considered to be "masterpieces" possess these attributes.

Surgery

0 comments

Surgery is done to remove cancer cells and surrounding tissue. It is often combined with radiation therapy and chemotherapy. After surgery, the body needs extra calories and protein for wound healing and recovery. At this time, many people have some pain and fatigue. In addition, they may be unable to eat a normal diet because of surgery-related side effects. The body's ability to use nutrients may also be changed by removal of any part of the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, or rectum.

Nutrition suggestions for people recovering from cancer surgery: If you've had surgery, remember that many side effects will go away within a few days of the operation. Certain drugs, self-care practices, and changes in diet can help lessen any side effects you may have. If they persist, be sure to tell your doctor, nurse, dietitian, or other member of your health care team.
