Download or read book Georgia on My Mind written by Georgia Lee and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2019-11-11 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GEORGIA – on my mind defies classification. More than a collection of personal essays and photography, this book is a reflection, confession, and commentary on the bittersweet adventure of life. Georgia Lee’s unique voice is witty and self-deprecating; perceptive and astute. Her stories, illustrated by her poignant photography, combine humor and pathos in equal measure. MEET THE BEATLES!!! speaks to her rabid pre-teen hysteria at The Beatles’ 1965 Atlanta concert that led her mother to administer a post-show sedative. Accompanying photographs include her prized framed ticket with its $5.50 cost of admission. LICE LESSONS transforms every mother’s nightmare – a child’s lice infestation, during her own suicidal depression into a love story of mother-daughter togetherness, illustrated with a de-lousing photo from Atlanta’s Lice Ladies emporium. BIOLOGICAL CLOCK speaks to cultural impositions on women. Georgia Lee’s brave recounting of her reproductive battles is painful, yet compelling. Under a so-called “biological clock,” to have a baby, she endures horrific medical negligence and months of hospitalization that lead to the stillborn delivery of a son, followed by a bitter separation and divorce. In post-traumatic shock, as a working single parent of a four-year-old toddler, the tragedy is redeemed by a miraculous pregnancy and delivery, at 40 years old, of a beautiful, healthy daughter. An unexpected memorial, 20 years later, links a time to mourn and a time to heal. A tale of longing and loss, torment and joy, Biological Clock addresses the painful issues so many women endure, often in silence. Through every story and image, Georgia Lee is unflinchingly honest and authentic. On My Mind is one woman’s journey of joy and pain. Though all paths vary, the journey is universal.

In 1858, Tianci, a Hunkpapa Sioux, participated in the annual dance-in-the-sun ceremony. In the vision he had, he saw a white buffalo that beckoned Tianci to follow him to the East where many White people had settled. Tianci travels to Chief Little Crow’s village in Minnesota where the situation between the Whites and the Indians is very fragile. Little Crow and his tribal members teach Tianci to speak the English language. Tianci marries Tacincadan, and they have a daughter, Kimama. Tianci is hired by Colonels Sibley and Barrett to be a guide. Visiting the Indian Agency, Tianci notices the corruption of the White agents selling the Indians’ food to other Whites. He warns the colonels about the situation that could lead to warfare. When Little Crow visits the Indian Agency and asks for the food promised to the Indians because of the land the Whites had claimed, Little Crow is told that there is no food for the Indians. When Little Crow asks what he should feed his people, Andrew Myrick mocks him, saying, “Let them eat grass or dung for all I care.” Warfare ensues. When soldiers under Colonel Barrett’s command accidentally kill Tacincadan and Kimama, Tianci desires to take revenge on Colonel Barrett. He captures Colonel Barrett’s two daughters as well as two soldiers. He releases the two soldiers and the older sister but keeps Charissa, claiming she will become his wife. Then he takes Charissa to Little Crow’s village. Much more unexpected drama follows. Let Them Eat Grass is based on historical research though some of the characters are fictional. Read this book to find out what happens to the main characters and to better understand the plight of not only the Sioux but most Native Americans in the treatment they received from the Whites.

Book excerpt: Rebekah Diamond, M.D., the pediatrician, working mom, and parent advocate trusted by Parents magazine and NBC for her adept advice, expertly guides you through the noise to share her fresh, inclusive, sensible, no-nonsense take on making the right choices when it comes the first 12 months of your child's life. Becoming a new parent in the age of online advice can be a minefield of confusion, worries, and fears amplified by myths, misinformation, and too much information. As an experienced pediatrician, Rebekah Diamond is deeply grounded in a fact-based understanding of child healthcare. As a mother, she also understands that the accepted rules aren't always the solution to the challenges of nurturing a healthy new baby. But neither is the overload of relatable but often dangerously misleading information bombarding parents. So how do you trust yourself to make the best decisions for your child? With authoritative up-to-date research and real-world advice on the myriad obstacles facing moms, dads, and caregivers, Dr. Diamond unpacks the whys behind the facts to empower your best parental instincts. From safe-sleep guidelines, breast feeding, and binky addiction to sensory developmental activities, baby products, and the final—and 100% evidence-based—word on the vaccination debate, Dr. Diamond helps parents cultivate the clarity and sound decisions you need to lessen the anxiety (for parent and baby) around what should be the joyful, connecting early months of life. "Parenting can be nerve-racking, even for the parents who feel prepared and "ready." The truth is, no one is completely ready or knows the answers to every potential problem or situation that arises in a child's life…. Parent Like a Pediatrician has the capability to put a pregnant or new mom at ease." —Portland Book Review
