The Universe

i’m not happpy

“Like any responsible parents, Kristy and Josh Schwade wanted what was best for their only child, Kaleb. They did a background check on their day care worker, and even interviewed her in her home for two hours. Kristy was even willing to drive 20 miles out of her way to provide, what they thought to have been, “optimum” care in a good neighborhood.

On May 9th, 2007 their worst nighmare was brought to fruition. After being in the care of this home day care worker only five times, Kaleb was picked up by his Grandmother and Aunt. They noticed that he was lethargic and experiencing obvious breathing abnormalities. The caregiver told them he was ill, but Kaleb had just visited the doctors the day before and was given a “clean bill of health”. When Kristy arrived at her mother’s home to pick Kaleb up, she described him as “having no life in his body”. She tried repeatedly to wake him, but with no avail. She and her father got in the car and rushed to the hospital. While in the vehicle, Kristy lifted Kaleb’s little eyelids. She noticed that his pupils were different sizes. Being the wife of an EMT, she knew immediately that this was the sign of a head injury- Kaleb needed IMMEDIATE care. They stopped at the nearest firestation. The ambulance took him to the nearest hospital, and he was classified as a “trauma alert”. He was then life-flighted to Tampa General Hospital, and was admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). He was diagnosed as having Shaken Baby Syndrome. They also discovered that he had been SMOTHERED!

Kristy is not currently working, and she and Josh spend every possible moment by their young son’s side. Medical bills, cost of gas, lawyer fees (I assume they will begin building), and general living expenses are mounting.

When something happens to your child, your world STOPS. Suddenly it doesn’t matter that your “roots” are growing out and you are getting split ends. It doesn’t matter that your neighbor is parking his dumpy car in your parking spot. You no longer care that someone cut you off on the highway, or that someone jumps infront of you in line at the grocery store. Nothing else matters but your child.

Kaleb is their world. The doctors. The PICU. It’s all that matters now.”

The Universe is defined as the summation of all particles and energy that exist and the space-time in which all events occur. Based on observations of the portion of the universe that is observable, physicists attempt to describe the whole of space-time, including all matter and energy and events which occur, as a single system corresponding to a mathematical model.

The currently accepted scientific theory of the universe’s formation is the Big Bang model, which describes the expansion of space-time from a gravitational singularity. The universe underwent a rapid period of cosmic inflation that flattened out nearly all initial irregularities. Thereafter the universe expanded and became steadily cooler and less dense. Minor variations in the distribution of mass resulted in fractal segregation into features that are found in the current universe; such as clusters of galaxies. There are probably more than one hundred billion galaxies in the universe.

A multiverse (or meta-universe) is the hypothetical set of multiple possible universes (including our universe) that together comprise all of physical reality. The different universes within a multiverse are called parallel universes. The structure of the multiverse, the nature of each universe within it and the relationship between the various constituent universes, depend on the specific multiverse hypothesis considered.

Multiverses have been hypothesized in cosmology, physics, philosophy, theology, and fiction, particularly in science fiction and fantasy. In these contexts, parallel universes are also called “alternate universes”, “quantum universes”, “parallel worlds”, or “alternate realities”.

I live in the Universeeeeeee….I am lost in the Milky Waaaaay!
