Download or read book Beyond Diagnosis written by Dr. Gillian G. Curry Williams and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “He who dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the sgadow of the Almighty” Psalm 91:KJV No one can fully capture nor describe what patients go through, especially when they suffer long-term illnesses. At some point, though, we have to change the narrative of care beyond diagnosis and treatment. Since there is no definitive method for caring for loved ones during these times, our love has to be the biggest potential to transform their lives. This book is my personal attempt to go beyond the diagnosis and share MY journey as a caregiver. This is all in an effort to change the perspective of caregiving. I also wanted the views of loved ones who suffered from these debilitating illnesses to be included in this narrative to ensure that you understand that beyond the diagnosis are human beings capable of and in need of being loved and treated with the dignity and respect that every human being deserves. EVERYONE has a story to tell, and NO ONE can tell your story like you can. – Dr. Gillian

Download or read book Daddy Issues written by Carrie Cantwell and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-09-05 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carrie Cantwell grew up with an unstable father who suffered from manic depression. His emotional absence left her wounded and yearning for his affection. To make matters worse, she struggled with unexplainable mood swings of her own. As a child, she was hyperactive and attention-seeking. By her twenties she was engaging in reckless behavior to quiet her inner demons. When Carrie was 24, her father died by suicide, and she was hit with her first major depressive episode. When she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, her heart sank. It felt like a death sentence. At age 38 and in a failing, abusive marriage, she tried to end her own life. Once discharged from an inpatient institution, she promised herself she'd never go back. Carrie made the same mistake her father had, but she'd gotten a second chance at life. She vowed not to squander it. She began a long journey of recovery by finally coming to terms with her daddy issues and the severity of her own mental illness. Carrie exposes a runaway roller coaster of emotions through brutally honest, raw recounting of soaring highs and crushing lows. Through powerful scenes of self-destruction and recovery, she invites readers into her turbulent and fragile inner world. Daddy Issues: A Memoir is a story of forgiveness and absolution, about how mental illness tore apart a father and daughter but was ultimately the very thing that brought them together.

Download or read book Prescribing under Pressure written by Tanya Stivers and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-03-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antibiotics will soon no longer be able to cure common illnesses such as strep throat, sinusitis and middle ear infections as they have done for the last 60 years. Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are increasing at a much faster rate than new antibiotics to treat them are being developed. The prescription of antibiotics for viral illnesses is a key cause of increasing bacterial resistance. Despite this fact, many children continue to receive antibiotics unnecessarily for the treatment of viral upper respiratory tract infections. Why do American physicians continue to prescribe inappropriately given the high social stakes of this action? The answer appears to lie in the fundamentally social nature of medical practice: physicians do not prescribe as the result of a clinical algorithm but prescribe in the context of a conversation with a parent and a child. Thus, physicians have a classic social dilemma which pits individual parents and children against a greater social good. This book examines parent-physician conversations in detail, showing how parents put pressure on doctors in largely covert ways, for instance in specific communication practices for explaining why they have brought their child to the doctor or answering a history-taking question. This book also shows how physicians yield to this seemingly subtle pressure evidencing that apparently small differences in wording have important consequences for diagnosis and treatment recommendations. Following parents use of these interactional practices, physicians are more likely to make concessions, alter their diagnosis or alter their treatment recommendation. This book also shows how small changes in the way physicians present their findings and recommendations can decrease parent pressure for antibiotics. This book carefully documents the important and observable link between micro social interaction and macro public health domains.

Download or read book What Are You Thinking Of Dad written by Nick Wisbey and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2011 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A heart-rending, honest account of the effect a stroke can have on family life. Nick Wisbey was 15 when his 49 year old father, Stan, was struck down by a stroke that was to leave him speechless and unable to communicate verbally. Instantaneously, the stroke relegated Stan from the head of the household, the breadwinner, to an invalid. The devastation on losing his ability to speak caused massive frustrations - with the family left to guess from his gesticulations what it was he wanted. The tensions mounted and Stan understandably struggled to adapt to his changed life - over time he sank into a world of TV watching, reading and silence. The family were left to cope as best they could, but felt that the stroke had cheated them out of a husband and father. The frustrations only increased as the years passed and the family grew. Stan Wisbey survived his stoke for twenty eight years, retaining the good looks and outward composure he'd always possessed, but never having resolved his anger with the illness. A further stroke took its toll on his well being and cognative abilities. What are you thinking of Dad? is Nick Wisbey's touching account of those 28 years. They focus on his relationship with his father - the highs and lows, the love and hate - as well as his mother's caring devotion to the family during this time. This account is unique because of the emphasis on the long term effect living with serious illness.
