Download or read book About My Mother written by Peggy Rowe and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-11-13 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Message from Mike Rowe, the Dirty Jobs Guy: Just to be clear, About My Mother is a book about my grandmother, written by my mother. That’s not to say it’s not about my mother—it is. In fact, About My Mother is as much about my mother as it is about my grandmother. In that sense, it’s really a book about “mothers.” …It is not, however, a book written by me. True, I did write the foreword. But it doesn’t mean I’ve written a book about my mother. I haven’t. Nor does it mean my mother’s book is about her son. It isn’t. It’s about my grandmother. And my mother. Just to be clear.—Mike A love letter to mothers everywhere, About My Mother will make you laugh and cry—and see yourself in its reflection. Peggy Rowe’s story of growing up as the daughter of Thelma Knobel is filled with warmth and humor. But Thelma could be your mother—there’s a Thelma in everyone’s life. Shes the person taking charge—the one who knows instinctively how things should be. Today Thelma would be described as an alpha personality, but while growing up, her daughter Peggy saw her as a dictator—albeit a benevolent, loving one. They clashed from the beginning—Peggy, the horse-crazy tomboy, and Thelma, the genteel-yet-still-controlling mother, committed to raising two refined, ladylike daughters. Good luck. When major league baseball came to town in the early 1950s and turned sophisticated Thelma into a crazed Baltimore Orioles groupie, nobody was more surprised and embarrassed than Peggy. Life became a series of compromises—Thelma tolerating a daughter who pitched manure and galloped the countryside, while Peggy learned to tolerate the whacky Orioles fan who threw her underwear at the television, shouted insults at umpires, and lived by the orange-and-black schedule taped to the refrigerator door. Sometimes, we’re more alike than we know. And in case you’re wondering, Peggy knows a thing or two about dirty jobs herself…

Download or read book So You Want to Be a Nurse written by Amira Clemens and published by Amira Clemens. This book was released on 2018-10-20 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When I started nursing school, I learned a lot of things that were important to my success. I attended a workshop on how to do things like navigate the textbook, revise notes from class and how to study. Once I became an instructor, I learned things to have students do that would assist them with test preparation and success. This book is a collection of those things that came to be a significant and positive change in success for me and those seeking help from me. Another important element of this book is the importance of staying positive, believing in yourself and the influence energy has on the person. These are some things that are generally left out of moving through school, career choices and places of employment. This book is a guide to help with achievement through nursing school. It is a collection of tips, tricks, and theories that have assisted many to a successful nursing career. Start to finish, it will help change your thinking about the nursing career and the good in it. If you are considering nursing as a career choice, this is a nice tool that you can use to fill your time while you prepare for school to start or while you wait for your acceptance letter. It can also be used if you are stuck on something and need a reference. This is a great gift for a new nursing student and a nice addition to other prep books like Nursing School Thrive Guide by Maureen Osuna. The rules of this book can also be translated to students in other careers. This has been written with nursing in mind but many of the chapters can be used as advice to a multitude of college and vocational students. Lastly, this book is designed like a workbook. Extra pages are added to take notes or to complete the activity at the end of the subsequent chapters. So, mark it up as you see fit and keep it as a keepsake and reminder of things you wrote and therefore put into the universe. Thank you for purchasing this book. If you did not purchase it (yet) I still would like to thank you for taking the time to consider this and reading the introduction.

Download or read book I Wasn t Strong Like This When I Started Out True Stories of Becoming a Nurse written by Lee Gutkind and published by Underland Press. This book was released on 2013-02-25 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of true narratives reflects the dynamism and diversity of nurses, who provide the first vital line of patient care. Here, nurses remember their first "sticks," first births, and first deaths, and reflect on what gets them though long, demanding shifts, and keeps them in the profession. The stories reveal many voices from nurses at different stages of their careers: One nurse-in-training longs to be trusted with more "important" procedures, while another questions her ability to care for nursing home residents. An efficient young emergency room nurse finds his life and career irrevocably changed by a car accident. A nurse practitioner wonders whether she has violated professional boundaries in her care for a homeless man with AIDS, and a home care case manager is the sole attendee at a funeral for one of her patients. What connects these stories is the passion and strength of the writers, who struggle against burnout and bureaucracy to serve their patients with skill, empathy, and strength.
