Article: If you can, make your whole costume the same color. A black plastic garbage bag makes convincing seaweed when cut into strips. Drape it over your tentacles or stick it in your belt to hang around you. If you like, cut a secondhand skirt into eight pointed strips to further mimic tentacles. This is a less striking but more comfortable costume you can change into if the larger tentacles start to annoy you.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Wear matching sweats, tights, or skirt. Cut strips of fake kelp. Make a comfortable backup costume (optional).

Problem: Article: If your family or community is extremely conservative, then it may not be safe to tell them that you're pregnant, especially if you think you will abort. Don't risk being verbally abused, physically abused, or kicked out of your house if you think it's possible. If it's not safe to tell your family, you may be able to go out "camping" or "on a road trip" and get an abortion in secret. (See if there's a trusted friend who will go with you and corroborate your story.) Be cautious about signing forms and make it clear to the clinic that you want this to be secret from your family and your family doctor. After your abortion, you might not be feeling so well. Your family might think it is a cold or the flu. Once your doctor has confirmed your pregnancy, you will likely have many questions. Your doctor is a great resource for you. Being pregnant will cause significant physical changes to your body. Even if you don't plan to be pregnant for long, you should ask your doctor what you can expect. Your doctor will also perform a physical exam, and may perform blood tests or an ultrasound at the visit. Ask your doctor to give you an approximation of how far along you are in your pregnancy. Many states have laws about when you can and cannot receive abortions. Typically, abortions are safest in the first trimester. Being unexpectedly pregnant can be a very frightening experience. You might feel confused and scared. Give yourself a few days to think about your options. If you have a friend or family member you can trust, don't be afraid to ask for advice. Most importantly, think about the decision that is best for you and your health. Essentially, you have three options to choose from: parenthood, adoption, or abortion. Even if you know what you want to do, it is still a good idea to talk to a counselor. They can prepare you with what to expect. Reproductive health clinics also provide resources to people who aren't sure whether they want abortions, and can offer resources if you think you want to keep the pregnancy but lack money or support. If you can, you may want to talk to the potential father to help you make your decision. But, legally the choice is yours.
Summary: Determine whether it's safe to tell anyone what's going on. Consult a doctor, if it's safe to do so. Think about your options.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Although you may recognize some telltale signs of ASD in your toddler, ultimately you need the professional discernment of a doctor or other qualified individual. Your doctor may choose to recommend tests to more thoroughly examine relevant potentially telling aspects of your toddler's cognitive development. If you suspect your toddler is showing signs of ASD, tell your doctor. Try to have relevant information on hand such as if your child: Doesn't respond to social interaction with a smile of happy emotional expression by 6 months of age. Doesn't mimic facial expressions or facial movements (such as sticking out your tongue and your toddler doing the same), or sounds, by 9 months of age. Is not babbling or making cooing sounds by 12 months of age. Isn't making gestures such as pointing, by 14 months of age. Has not uttered single words by 16 months of age or pairs of words by 24 months of age. Doesn't engage in imaginary play by 18 months of age. Seems to be regressing in their social or verbal skills. There are individuals who may specialize is diagnosing and/or treating ASD, such as child psychologists, pediatric neurologists, or developmental pediatricians. Keep in mind there is no single medical test to diagnose ASD, so try to remain patient as you and your doctor work through the diagnosis process. There is no "cure" for autism, but therapies can help your child gain skills and be more comfortable. The aim of these treatments is to maximize your child's ability to function day to day through gaining coping mechanisms and focusing on learning outcomes. Some treatment options include: Behavior and communication therapy in which the aim is either to reduce problematic behaviors and communication styles, or to improve these areas by teaching new skills. Family therapies in which the emphasis is on teaching the toddler's family different ways to interact with the toddler to promote their social and emotional development. Sensory integration therapies and a sensory diet, to improve your child's tolerance to sensory input and manage hyperactivity. Educational therapies that are highly structured individually tailored programs executed by a team of specialists who have expertise in communicating with and teaching individuals with ASD. Medications such as antidepressants or antipsychotics can be somewhat effective in controlling symptoms such as anxiety and severe behavioral problems, respectively.

SUMMARY: Recognize you need a doctor to officially diagnose. Express your concern to your doctor. Realize you may be referred to a specialist. Recognize that autism is lifelong, but your child can receive support.

If your legs are swollen or you have been sitting for a long time as in a overseas plane ride, blood clots can form and spread to your lung arteries, causing blockage. Lung conditions cause chest pain that can worsen when you breathe, move, or cough. Get to an emergency room as quickly as possible. Lung conditions may require emergency surgery to alleviate symptoms. Pneumonia is an infection that affects the air sacs in the lungs. They become inflamed, and can fill with fluid, which results in the phlegm and mucus you see when you cough. The chest pain you experience may be accompanied by: Fever Coughing up mucus or phlegm Fatigue Nausea, and vomiting In mild cases, you can simply rest at home and wait for your immune system to fight off the infection. But if the infection grows severe it can become life-threatening, especially in children and the elderly. See your doctor if: You have trouble breathing The chest pain worsens significantly You have a fever of 102 F (39 C) or higher that won't go down Your coughing won't subside, especially if you're coughing up pus Be especially careful with children under two, adults over 65, and anyone else with a compromised immune system. If a bacterial infection has caused the pneumonia, the doctor can prescribe antibiotics (azithromycin, clarithromycin, or erythromycin) to fight the infection and speed up recovery. However, even if antibiotic treatment is not an option for your infection, he can still give you medication to deal with the chest pain or reduce the coughing that worsens the pain. A pulmonary embolism occurs when a blockage develops in a lung (pulmonary) artery. Pneumothorax (collapsed lung) occurs when air leaks into the space between your lungs and your chest wall. Both conditions cause severe shortness of breath or a bluish discoloration of the fingers and mouth. In delicate patients such as the elderly or long-term asthma sufferers, the intense coughing from pneumonia can sometimes cause a lung blockage or tear in the lung. If you suspect a pulmonary embolism or pneumothorax, then seek immediate medical attention. In addition to chest pain, both conditions cause severe shortness of breath or a bluish discoloration of the fingers and mouth. Both conditions require immediate medical attention. The blood leaking into the chest cavity or the air escaping into it can rapidly collect and compress your lungs. These conditions will not resolve on their own, but require medical assistance. Call emergency services or get to an emergency room as quickly as possible.
