Download or read book Lady with a Lantern written by Kay Parley and published by Benchmark Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lady With a Lantern is an eye-opener for anyone who was neither patient nor staff in “the big mental” hospital. Kay Parley was both and she can light the way. The author uses journal, narrative and short story to convey a range of emotion from despair and violence to hope and fun. She provides an understanding of the variety of creative therapies used when the Saskatchewan Hospital at Weyburn was named the most improved mental hospital in North America. There will be times you’ll feel lucky you weren’t there and there will be times you’ll wish you were. You get a clear sense that the hallmark of psychiatry is the unpredictable. Kay Parley has written an entertaining and valuable piece of Saskatchewan history which has too often been neglected and misunderstood.

Download or read book Tales from Kentucky Nurses written by William Lynwood Montell and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2015-02-20 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This oral history shares stories of Kentucky nurses—from frontier births to emergency rooms and from the early twentieth-century to the present day. From frontier times to the present day, Kentucky nurses have served with intelligence and energy, always ensuring that their patients received the best available care. Folklorist and oral historian William Lynwood Montell collects nearly two hundred stories from these hard-working men and women in Tales from Kentucky Nurses. From humorous anecdotes to spine-chilling coincidences, tragic circumstances, and heartwarming encounters, the tales in this lively volume are recorded exactly as they were told to Montell. This collection features anecdotes from the famous Frontier Nursing Service, which provided essential care to families in remote areas of the state and whose leader, Mary Breckinridge, is remembered for her wit and kindness. In addition, Montell's interviewees share ghost stories and describe folk remedies like the practice of placing an axe under a woman's pillow during labor to cut the pain. These firsthand accounts not only pay homage to an underappreciated profession but also preserve important aspects of Kentucky's history not likely to be recorded elsewhere.

Book excerpt: When Dr. Lawrence A. Cooper (Coop) has three patients inexplicably bleed to death on the operating table, the vultures begin to circle. First, he is accused of operating while under the influence of alcohol and his surgical privileges are stripped. Next, the deceased patients’ families each slap him with separate malpractice lawsuits and not too surprisingly, the State of Utah revokes his license to practice medicine. Then, just to make sure his bones are picked clean, the county attorney charges him with negligent homicide, a criminal offense punishable by up to five years in prison. Just as Coop is pretty sure things can’t get any worse, his malpractice insurance carrier assigns Samantha Rose Jardine as his defense attorney. He and Samantha Rose go way back.

Download or read book A Handful of Rain written by Carol Ward Wilson and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every day there walk anonymously among us people who have had extraordinary experiences. Their very presence serves as a tribute to the strength of the human spirit. That cannot be better illustrated than by this moving account of a young girl who discovers she has a medical condition whose lifelong consequences she could not even imagine. This is her story, right up to the touching moment when a stranger's death brings her renewed hope through the modern magic of a double organ transplant. Her story takes an even more dramatic turn as she discovers her organ donor's identity. As it turns out, her donor, too, had a story. As the author takes us through her childhood, we relive with her the days when doctors sterilized and reused syringes and the treatment of diseases like hers, diabetes, was somewhat hit and miss. She describes how her early optimism took shape with each small victory-learning to inject a grapefruit with make-believe insulin, celebrating with nurses at her bedside the Beatles' debut on the Ed Sullivan Show. This book brings timely attention to the complexities and consequences of diabetes, a disease becoming more prevalent in our times. It also serves to remind us of the immense medical progress we have achieved over the last few decades. The legally blind author's tale makes us realize the hardships some people experience and highlights the courage and determination that led her to write her story. A Handful of Rain is an inspiring book which will lift your spirit, make you appreciate your own blessings in life, give you new insight into the marvels of modern medicine, and perhaps make you look at the people around you in a new, more appreciative light. You will find that this book teaches more than what it may have set out to do. While readers will be introduced, gently and often with humor, to the daily realities of life with diabetes, they will come to the end of the story with a sense of awe at what goes on around us that we who are not blind fail to see. While the author may have embarked upon her autobiography with the goal of providing useful information about her condition, her exceptional writing skill and personal humility turned this account into a work of inspiration and hope that will uplift anyone's spirit. Carol Ward Wilson was born in Whitewater, Wisconsin in 1953, one of five children. When she was eleven, her family moved to Ohio, where she graduated in 1971 from Hilliard High School. She attended Texas Christian University-Harris College of Nursing from 1971 to 1973. She and her husband Mick married in 1975. They now reside in Peachtree City, Georgia, just south of Atlanta. A Handful of Rain is the author's first book.
