Rip is resolutely drawn to the salty ocean breeze, and the crash of the waves, and he simply cannot be discouraged"€"even in summer when he is forbidden to follow his instincts and race miles along the coast. "No Dogs on Nauset Beach!" the sign reads, and the guards protest, calling for his young owner Zach to come retrieve him daily.

Download or read book Riptides Solaces Unforeseen written by Debby Mayer and published by Epigraph Publishing. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part mystery, part love story, part report from the medical front in the United States today, Riptides relates the fast-onset brain cancer that ripped through a strong, healthy man and led to his death four months later at the age of fifty-six. The book is a searing chronology of the effects of devastating illness, of being caught in the maw of hospitals, of unthinkable decision-making and small, unexpected solaces. Tightly written, fact-based, it is never maudlin, and it offers an element of hope without sentimentality. Riptides is a harrowing read. The writing is honest and intimate, the language spare and precise. Encounters with the health care system--doctors, nurses, aides--repeatedly fail to provide reassurance, honesty, or reliable information, and often end in promises that are not kept. These are human failings, but they are devastating when two is becoming one. Our hospitals and hospices can do better than that. --Nancy H. Smith Professor Emeritus of Anthropology and Psychology Antoin Boisen, the father of clinical pastoral education, wrote that every patient and family member is a "living, human document"--a story waiting to be heard. As a health-care chaplain I recommend this story, Riptides, to anyone working with patients. --Keith F. Patterson Chaplain, Episcopal Diocese of Vermont In four months an active, intelligent, forceful man becomes an invalid, incapable of speech or voluntary movement. Friends and family barely have time to adjust to one set of symptoms before the decline advances. The impact of these terrible events is heightened by the writer's understated, matter-of-fact prose until the reader feels almost a participant in this tragic story. No one who reads it will ever forget this book. --Molly Laird RN, PhD, Emergency Room Psychiatric Nurse Debby Mayer's blog, 2becomes1: widowhood for the rest of us, can be found at debbymayer.blogspot.com or through debbymayer.com.

Download or read book Riptides written by Richard Lemm and published by Acorn Press (CN). This book was released on 2012 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A call was sent out asking writers to submit unpublished short stories for a fiction anthology featuring newer writers with a significant P.E.I. connection. There were no boundaries for setting or genre, only a limit of 5,000 words. PEI is strong on tradition, which includes out-migration and immigration. Thus, its culture and demographics are changing, and these PEI writers both are Island-born and hail from away - Australia and Calgary, Newfoundland and Ukraine. The result is twenty-three stories, which take the reader from a ritual gathering of PEI widows to Chernobyl in the nuclear disaster?s aftermath, from a menacing marital game of hide-and-seek through the Maritime landscape to gender clashes on an outback sheep ranch, from a religious commune in Alberta to the Enlightenment Tour bus into Quebec. Whether the characters are struggling for dear life in breaking surf, gasping for emotional air at a ladies’ candle party or fearing the Tall Tailor?s scissors, the authors demonstrate a rich variety of fictional talent and imagination emerging from what Island poet Milton Acorn called the “red tongue...In the ranged jaws of the Gulf,” and revising our perception of “the land of Anne.”

Nick sees Bria as a beautiful but spoiled princess who's never done a day's work in her pampered life. But once they set sail for the dive site, and the legendary fortune in gold the wreck carries, Nick begins to see Bria in a new light.
