[|Avascular Necrosis Blog] made by: Lauren Smith made: November 15, 2007

I was more interested in this blog than any other I have ever done. On this blog we were supposed to inform our readers about a bone disorder using research we looked up from a website or a book. The one I chose was avascular necrosis. Avascular necrosis is a condition in which the bones have tiny fractures in them due to limited or no blood circulation to that bone.

This one I liked better than any other blog. Why? Because I sounded like a doctor in an infomercial. Sound weird? Let me explain. I sounded like a person who knew about the condition they were talking about and what symptoms were common with that condition. And I did. I know that avascular necrosis can be caused by various things such as a dislocation, severe alcoholism, in some cases chemotherapy, and conditions like lupus, and sickle cell anemia. There is no official way to prevent avascular necrosis, but until that day comes I plan on keeping my bones healthy the only way I know how.

Despite how much I liked this blog there are a couple things I think I need to change. First, the pictures. Next time I will teach myself how to actually load the pictures properly so that the viewers can see them. And second I wish I had gone more in depth. There is much more to learn about avascular necrosis and I want to learn it. So, until next time.
