Kingston's mother portrayed her experience with good and evil spirits through the stories she told Kingston. She was also brave when she fought the ghost. She is not afraid to fight a ghost just like how she is not afraid to be brave and help people everyday by being a medical doctor. On page 75 Kingstons mother said, " I told you ghost that we would come after you" This shows how she is not scared.]]> 2018-04-09 16:19:58 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899344 https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899354 Kingstons mother not only has a medical diploma, but seems to possess an understanding of ghosts as well. On page 70, Kingston's mother says to a sitting ghost that " I've heard of you sitting ghosts before. Yes, people have lived to tell about you. You kill babies, you cowards. You have no power over strong woman. You are no more dangerous then a nesting cat." Kingston goes on to lead her peers against the ghost as she describes the problem on page 74. On page 74, Kingston describes the ghost as a "bacteria." In this way, Kingston has helped to cure a glaring problem outside of medicine.]]> 2018-04-09 16:19:59 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899354 https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899479 Kingston's mother is as much as a Shaman as she is a medical doctor. Brave Orchid is very courageous and intelligent. A Shaman is  a person regarded as having access to, and influence in, the world of good and evil spirits. Typically such people enter a trance state during a ritual, and practice divination and healing.  On page 74, Brave Orchid states, "You have to help me rid the world of this disease, as invisible as bacteria." Brave Orchid is trying to rid the world of a destructive evil, both medically and spiritually. ]]> 2018-04-09 16:20:11 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899479 https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899494 As a Shaman, she was able to stay brave and help others and herself in her society. She fought ghosts and as said i page 75, she said, "We told you ghost, we would come after you." She was successful in being both a doctor and a shaman by having many PhD's and majored in many classes.]]> 2018-04-09 16:20:13 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899494 keisley https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899586 Kingston's mother is as much a Shaman as she is a medical doctor because she is very in tune with her ancestors and her family, which allowed her to defeat the ghost. Being a shaman and being a doctor both require a lot of focus, patience, and mental strength. On page 71, Kingston's mother said to the ghost, "You are a puny little boulder indeed. Yes, when I get my oil, I will fry you for breakfast." Immediately after Kingston's mother said this, the ghost ran off. In this example, Kingston's mother showed bravery by stepping up to get rid of the ghost while everyone else was afraid of it. In being a medical doctor, Kingston's mother had to show bravery by being confident that she could cure any patient. ]]> 2018-04-09 16:20:22 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899586 athomas112 https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899779 Kingston's mother is just as much a Shaman as she is a medical doctor because she is brave and faces the ghosts. She also educated on how to deal with the ghost just like she is educated in medicine. On pages 70 through 75 she faces the ghosts head on and leads the other women to take down the ghosts.]]> 2018-04-09 16:20:41 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899779 skatie760 https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899783 Kingston's mother is just as much a Shaman as she is a medical doctor because during her time at medical school, she was able to stay focused and earn her degree while fighting off ghosts and standing up to them. On her first encounter with the sitting ghost, the book quotes "You do not belong here. And I will see to it that you leave. When morning comes, only one of us will control this room, Ghost, and that one will be me" (Kingston 70). Both roles require bravery, and Kingston's mother was able to manage both roles during her time at medical school. Both role require you to expel of something, whether that be evil ghosts or a disease. ]]> 2018-04-09 16:20:41 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899783 iwilliamson_student_lncharter_org https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899993 Kingston's mother is as much a Shaman as she is a medical doctor because she has trained very hard to get to where she is in the medical field, much like how Shamans are put through different physical and mental tests. Kingston's mother is a Shaman because she is brave and willing to fight off ghosts, as she is not afraid of them. When Kingston writes "you must rid the world of this disease," this can represent how Kingston's mother is fighting off both physical medical diseases as a doctor and spiritual diseases in the form of ghosts.]]> 2018-04-09 16:21:04 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249899993 kschroeder15 https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249900038 Kingston's mother is as much a Shaman as she is a medical doctor because she is knowledgeable about spiritual things like ghosts as well as medicine. An example of this would be her encounter with the ghost in the story when, "'Oh, no. A Sitting Ghost,' she thought" (Kingston 69). She is knows different types of ghosts and realizes that they are present. She is willing to fight them, and later rids the school of one when, "You have to help me rid the world of this disease, as invisible and deadly as bacteria."]]> 2018-04-09 16:21:09 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249900038 Jacob_Pinard https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249900425 Kingston's mother is much a Shaman as she is a medical doctor because she is both able to deal with the ghosts and be able to be prominent in the field of medicine.  On page 70, she talks about how the ghost made a mistake by haunting a medical school. This shows the connection because it says that, since they are a medical school, they are able to deal with the ghosts.]]> 2018-04-09 16:21:50 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249900425 https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249901174 Being a medical doctor in their society is different for a woman. She works very hard and she has to be very brave to have this job. She also talks to ghosts, while everyone is afraid of those. This makes her a shaman. On page 73 its says "I did not die. I am brave and good". This shows her bravery within both a medical doctor and a shaman.]]> 2018-04-09 16:23:19 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/249901174 https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/250358093 On page 57, Kingston's mother is shown to have many diplomas that are medically related. However on page 65, the author says she could 'validate ghost sightings' and defeats a ghost later in the chapter. Both jobs require bravery, respect, patience, and immense intelligence. Kingston's mother has all these traits.]]> 2018-04-10 16:19:20 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/250358093 https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/255312086 Kingstons mom is a much a shaman as she is a medical doctor because she works hard for what she has. Women in her society have to work extrememly hard which relates to a medical doctor. She is just as much a shaman because of how brave she is and how she communicates with ghosts. She is both brave and strong wich relate to Shaman and Medical doctor. Her mother has many character traits that apply to both. On page 65 it says “she needn’t have been afraid. Most ghosts are only nightmares.” This shows her bravery and knowledge.]]> 2018-04-25 16:08:42 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_n_hoffmann/3c5kpsnv3ro4/wish/255312086
