Book excerpt: The Heart of a Woman is a story of perseverance. It takes you from the fateful life changing day when Carole had a cardiac arrest and a 'widow maker' heart attack at age seventy, through the stages of recovery and complications that occurred. It emphasizes how stress has become a major factor in women having heart attacks. Carole had experienced years of stress during her thirty-eight-year marriage to a Marine pilot who suffered from extreme PTSD. She stood strong and helped him through his rough psychological episodes. Frequent moves, business failures, medical emergencies, and the worst; toiling in their citrus grove and driving a tractor for a decade, all put huge amounts of stress on her. Episodes that describe saving her daughter's life, stopping a potential home break-in, near fatal hemorrhaging after childbirth, and many more, will have you crying with her, and cheering her on. Never giving up, always persevering, doing whatever it took to keep her marriage, family and livelihood intact, prepared Carole for the long recovery from her coronary crisis. Then, realizing she was capable of meeting any goal, she eventually had both of her painful arthritic hips replaced. She took charge of her life again. Her cardiologist urged her to write a book to inspire other heart attack victims to work hard to recover their heart health and general health. The book ends with GETTING YOUR HEART HEALTHY AND KEEPING YOUR HEART HEALTH, A chapter on eating a plant based or Mediterranean diet, exercising, keeping a healthy weight, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle, all which reduces life-threatening stress.

Download or read book Widowmaker written by Tim Hillier-Graves and published by Casemate. This book was released on 2020-08-31 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dramatic history behind one of WWII’s most powerful—and dangerous—planes, “spiced with many first-hand accounts, American and British” (Aeroplane). Despite everything, I felt very lucky to have flown Corsairs. They were the best, you know, even though it took me some time to realize this when so many friends died flying them. —Colin Facer, Corsair pilot, HMS Illustrious The Vought-Sikorsky Corsair was one of the most potent fighters of WWII—and one of the most flawed. Conceived by Rex Beisel, Vought’s Chief Designer in 1938, it was condemned by the US Navy as too dangerous for carrier operations and wasn’t certified for use at sea. With British companies unable to build fighters with sufficient range and potency for carrier use, the Admiralty sought alternatives, and due to Roosevelt’s Lend Lease program, they could acquire weapons from American factories. In practice, this meant standing in line behind the US military for service, but it still opened up new opportunities. So with newly built Corsairs being stockpiled and the promise of an improved version to come, the Royal Navy saw an opening worthy of development and exploited it. By the end of the war, the Fleet Air Arm had acquired more than 2,000 Corsairs to equip its squadrons. But the risks identified by the USN were largely ignored by the Royal Navy and far too many men and aircraft were lost in accidents as a result. Yet in the hands of experienced carrier pilots, its virtues were only too apparent and, in due course, they achieved great things. Eventually, the US Navy noted this “success” and certified the Corsair for use on their carriers too, but the aircraft never entirely lost its reputation as a “widowmaker.” This book, with photos included, describes the Corsair’s development and tells the sad but inspiring story of the young men who struggled and suffered to make the Corsair a going concern in the most vicious, unforgiving war one can imagine. The author met and corresponded with almost a hundred veterans from America, Britain, New Zealand, and Canada. Their recollections made this book possible—and through their vivid memories we can experience what it felt like to be barely of age, a civilian called to arms, and a fighter pilot.

Download or read book The Rise of the Widow Maker written by Zoez Lajoune and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2020-12-29 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The soul-chilling story of Carlos MacIntyre continues with exploration into the darkest unswept chambers of his mind. Therein, his innermost fears are revealed, including his fear of the Light of Death himself, his dark side, the Widow-Maker. Since the Widow-Maker emerged from the darkness within him in The Awakening of the Widow-Maker, Carlos MacIntyre has sought to understand the mission of this Egyptian Blackness and be at one with his teacher. With the aid of his psychiatrist, Dr. Marcus Rutowski, who is his mother’s old college psychology professor, the journey into his mind through hypnosis proves that the walls between different worlds no longer exist. From the Johnson Parkway tunnel underneath the Seventh Street railroad tracks in St. Paul, to the halls of the Bell Museum of Natural History at the University of Minnesota campus, in Downtown Minneapolis. As Li’l Carlos gives in more and more to the darkness, he becomes the living embodiment of requital. A cyanide cocktail in a chalice of destruction waiting for a worthy soul to take a drink. There is no safe haven to flee to, no bargaining chip to use for leverage, and no plea to offer that will obtain mercy. Only a terrible fate awaits those that fall on his list. He is armed with a brand-new set of construction skills from Summit Academy. The contortion of disfigured bodies in crawl spaces at renovated stores and the nauseous scents reported at numerous residential homes all seems unending and baffling for Lead Detective Tommy Soprano and his rookie partner, Mike Kowalski, whom are assisted by criminal pathologist Raj Sarkozy from the FBI, along with several police agencies. Many people in the neighborhood praise the Widow-Maker for the peace he’s brought. Some want his head for the lives that he took. He is the walking curse upon many, the writing on the wall at the hospital, and the whisper in the minds of the unrepentant, reminding them of their deeds that they won’t even dare utter in prayer. All know him, and none will forget him. As he casts his dark shadow upon the Twin Cities, they will witness the rise of the Widow-Maker.
