PHI332 : The Class : Argument ID : Topic Sentence : Exercise 2.12.2
Mark the topic sentence in the following paragraph with an arrow. Then diagram the argument in the paragraph.
We must also acknowledge that the lives of our loved ones can be devastated
just by having to pay for health care for us. One part of the recent SUPPORT
study documented the financial aspects of caring for a dying member of a family.
Only those who had illnesses severe enough to give them less than a 50 percent
chance to live six more months were included in this study. When these patients
survived their initial hospitalization and were discharged about one-third required
considerable caregiving from their families; in 20 percent of cases a family
member had to quit work or make some other major lifestyle change; almost one-third
of these families lost all of their savings; and just under 30 percent lost
a major source of income (294).
