Tow #19 Uterus Transplant

"I crave that experience ... I want the morning sickness, the backaches, the feet swelling. I want to feel the baby move. That is something I've wanted for as long as I can remember." The very words of a women who was born without a uterus. On NPR (National Public Radio), they discussed the importance of the uterus transplant in Europe and how it's now being used in the United States. The importance of this topic (uterus transplants) is demonstrated through the multiple quotes that are being used; utilizing pathos towards their audience. Their audience pertains to women who are experiencing pregnancy issues to to their uterus. Many people such as surgeons, doctors, and innocent citizens, describe the newly introduced operation to the United States, by saying that "we've opened the door. We've stepped through it." With many women agreeing that childbirth is the "true feeling of becoming a mother", since their feels are being captured, NPR then sold their audience on the factual evidence that is presented. Mainly describing the number of individuals who are affected by this and the number of lives that it has changed. Anyone who many view this article would also be aware of the current political debates going on. They would be aware of that because in a recent political debate, the topic of transplants was briefly brought up by a citizen towards the political parties and their take on the new procedures. With pathos hooking the audience, ethos locking them in, and also the questioning of political figures, it's no doubt that this article was successful of reaching it's purpose - successfully spread the news of the new surgery. Provided the number of women who are affected by this, from my understanding it successfully reached those individuals among others. NPR is known for their enlightening radio broadcasts and usually draw a lot of audiences. Through NPR, the audience received the information.
