Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The worst of times can sometimes be the catalyst to the best of times. At the age of forty-seven the author’s worst time dragged her into a whirlpool of self-pity. While suicide was knocking on her door, God sent an angel to save her life. God seems to delight in choosing unlikely saviors; Moses the stutter and Noah the alcoholic are two. The angel God sent to this author was a quadriplegic named Angelina Ayudar. With perfect timing, Angelina threw a lifesaver into the whirlpool that was taking the author down. After working a few months with Angelina, the author realized that this quadriplegic was living the fulfilled life the author craved. Little by little Angelina taught the author how to live a spirit-filled life, and this has made all the difference. The characters in the book have been given anonymous names in order to protect everyone involved. The events in this book occurred over twenty years ago, and many of the characters are deceased, including Angelina and Silass. Everything in this book is as true as the author’s twenty-year-old memory can make it.

Download or read book Bent But Not Broken written by Andrew Butters and published by Potato Chip Math Creations. This book was released on 2022-04-14 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bent But Not Broken is a heartfelt journey of a girl and her family as they navigate the healthcare system from diagnosis to surgery and beyond. Follow them as they use their own words in blog posts and through an emotional and gripping narrative that puts you right by their side. All the ups, downs, challenges, and successes of the experience changed their lives and taught them that compassion and love build strong communities, even stronger families, and that true strength comes from the most unlikely sources. For the Butters family, the punch that knocked the wind out of them was a diagnosis of severe idiopathic scoliosis for their eleven-year-old daughter Avery. The only viable treatment option was spinal fusion surgery. It was a terrifying prospect to stare down. Frustrated with the lack of information on what the family would actually experience, Avery's mother, Jodi, started a family blog. It was there that Avery, Jodi, and Andrew would share their thoughts and experiences about the journey in real time. Jodi was determined that if there were other families searching for this information her family would be able to provide it. When it was all said and done and the blog came to its rightful conclusion, the writer in Andrew felt that since the blog was so successful at spreading the message then surely there were other ways to help spread the word and share lessons that even applied beyond Avery's scoliosis.

Download or read book A Patient s Perspective on Spastic Tetraparesis Diagnosis written by Bianca Wiersema and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2023-12-18 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are books that discuss all types of cerebral palsy and provide guidelines for families of those who have it, but they do not describe specifically the spastic tetraparesis diagnosis. They address the plegia type of diagnosis and not the paresis one, yet these are two different conditions. They are mostly written from a doctor’s or physiotherapist’s point of view, and not by the patients themselves. This book is different, as it is written by someone with personal experience of receiving this diagnosis. It gives an overview of how the diagnosis of spastic tetraparesis affects the body at each level (face, hands, abdomen, lower limbs), as well as the challenges the diagnosed person faces in daily life, and ways to overcome these challenges (tools to make dressing easier, different walking aids along with their drawbacks and benefits, ways to be independent in carrying out activities, among others). It also explores the relationship between disability and sexuality.

Download or read book Thanks For Telling Her No written by Ruth Davenport and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2023-07-06 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shelbi was born with a rare disease that causes her to struggle in a world with little acceptance for those who are different. She was told “no” far too often and bullied, shunned, and mistreated. She was made to feel less than but still knew she could do what was being denied because despite mistreatment, she was also loved, adored, and supported. Thanks for Telling Her “No” follows the first twenty-six years of Shelbi’s life. Written through the eyes of her mom, you will feel the inner groans of a mother raising a child deemed “different.” Her mom devotes her life to seeing that Shelbi accomplishes what she wants to accomplish. No matter how high, how low, how crowded, or how bumpy, they find a way to keep going and make it through. Their story is written in chronological order with each chapter building on the last. The chapter titles are different names for God, signifying how He guided them through each trial and victory. The conclusion is proof that it takes a village to raise a child—but also faith. Have you ever been told “no” about something you thought you could do? Never let words keep you from being all you can be. Prepare to laugh, cry, and maybe get angry but ultimately rejoice!
Download or read book On the Political Economy of Social Democracy written by J. Weldon and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1991-02-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weldon's writings address many of the themes that have preoccupied Canadian political economists over the last thirty years: unemployment, wage controls, inflation, pensions, privatization and social ownership, economic planning, social policy, the means and extent of state intervention, and the rise of neo-conservatism. On the Political Economy of Social Democracy stresses Weldon's recognition of the vital connection between social democracy and political democracy. It provides a clear understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of economic and social policy -- a necessary understanding, Weldon maintained, for the success of social democratic government. Weldon's commitment to social democracy in Canada is also reflected in the role he played in the New Democratic Party, his willingness to support and assist unions, and his efforts to achieve social justice. These selected papers originally appeared between 1961 and 1986. The issues they examine are now in the forefront of economic policy debates in most industrialized nations. They will interest not only scholars but anyone interested in the fate of a democratic political philosophy that has had considerable influence in shaping Canada.
