ABSTRACT

The present reserch project is about Taxes, that is an important topic in our society. The project has two main objectives. The most important one is to find out people's knowledge about taxes and the other part is to discover what part of our expenses are devoted to the payment of taxes.

In order to get results for these objectives, I did surveys to the population and I collected all the receipts that a random family has. 

Key words: tax, tax system, expenses.

'WE FELT LIKE WE WERE BEING DRIVEN IN A CAR WE HAD NO CONTROL OVER': PARENTS DESCRIBE THE ANGUISHOF WATCHING THEIR SIX-YEARS-OLD DAUGHTER BATTLE LEUKAEMIA.

Six-old-years Ellie Mae Wile is celebreating that she superated the big cancer that she had. Ellie has spend a physically and emotionally draining past couple of years battting the leukaemia. Also, she succumbed to E.coli and pneumonia and she had to learn to walk again after the cancer tratment severely damaged her bones.

The mother of the girl said that she was ver pale, tired and had aching legs. When on of his aunts recognised tell-tale signs of leukaemia. The aunt recomended to her parents to straight to hospital and demand a blood test. When the doctors said to the family the cancer they wer in shock and thet didn't understand.

The chemotheraoy drugs  that were saving Ellie's life were also suppressing her immune system. Her leg muscles were also affected, making it difficult to walk.

In may she was able to go to school, but she had to use a wheelchair as she re-learned to walk. In the summer she broke fer leg caused by the effects of the chemotherapy

In my point of view I think that this cancer for Ellie and her family had to be very hard and they had fight a lot to overcome the leukaemia.
