Book excerpt: Storytelling is an essential part of life. Much of what humankind has known has been through storytelling. This performance thesis focuses on the narratives of a cancer survivor and her caretakers. In-depth interviews were conducted to determine how, through narrating their stories, participants could possibly develop awareness of the experience of healing. I gave my participants a voice through a public performance, which took place on April 1st, 2016 in the Hazel Kelly Wilson VIP Room of the Jack B. Kelly Student Center at West Texas A&M University. This performance thesis, presented five different narratives: The Worst Phone Call Ever, The Heavenly Call, The Battle for Life, A Message from God, and God's Existence—My Biggest Take-Away. Through these narratives, the participants shared their experience, and the process of how each coped with cancer. Three stages of the process of the illness were analyzed: The Genesis, The Fight, and Survival of the illness. Feelings of healing were observed, and mentioned from participants. The theory of Narrative Medicine by Rita Charon provided the theoretical basis for the study.

Download or read book Anatomy of a Survivor written by Dr. Joyce Mikal-Flynn and published by Post Hill Press. This book was released on 2021-04-27 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1990, after a sudden cardiac event, Joyce Mikal-Flynn was dead for twenty-two minutes. While CPR and determined doctors returned her to life, she came to find that this new life wasn’t her life at all. Faced with depression, personal and professional setbacks, she ultimately recognized that this was not an end point—but a beginning. Over time, she understood that taking control begins with the essential choice to move forward. Her struggles fueled her. You got this, she told herself with every obstacle, failure, and misstep. Trauma and crisis are inescapable aspects of life. Framed, at times, as something to get over, trauma never fully leaves those who experience it. For over two decades, Dr. Mikal-Flynn has worked with and studied issues faced by survivors. She understands and recognizes their desire to move forward, identifying specific mindsets and behaviors that encourage progress. Making the choice to move forward, fierce determination, and well-researched actions are key for survival and growth. Interlacing stories with research on genetics, posttraumatic growth, and the neuroscience of resilience and happiness, this book outlines how survivors of trauma structure a positive and productive response. An ingenious strengths-based rehabilitation system—metahabilitation—engages them by uncovering and developing their resilience, grit, and capacity for growth after trauma. This book shows you how survivors are built and presents a unique system guiding them forward.

Book excerpt: In the future, when no first-person witnesses to the Shoah are left to tell their stories, we will be left with their written, audio, and video narratives. Those who will be left to bear witness for them can tell their stories from a purely historical viewpoint. However, this thesis adds a new option - a theological dimension through which to read and further appreciate their stories. It argues that the theology of Irving Greenberg is well suited to express the theology implicit in the lives of many Shoah survivors, providing an opportunity to reflect theologically on their experiences both during and after the Shoah. The thesis explores Greenberg's distinct postwar model that expresses concern for the theological and socio-political implications of the Shoah, addressing themes of morality, faith, religion and interfaith dialogue. The second part of the thesis examines the narratives of three Canadian Shoah survivors through the lens of Greenberg's theology. The first, Stefan Carter, is a secular Jew who survived the Warsaw Ghetto and makes his home in Winnipeg. The second, Pinchas Gutter, is a Majdanek/Buchenwald survivor who was from a family of Ger Hasidim. Gutter lives in Toronto and has become well known due to his participation in cutting-edge exhibits and videos. The third, Robbie "Romek" Waisman, is a Buchenwald survivor, lives in Vancouver and is an Honorary Witness to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada.

Download or read book Discourses of Sexual Assault written by Victoria Elizabeth Thomas and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examined rape and sexual assault survivor narratives in visual images to better understand lived experiences of sexual assault. The thesis sought to determine ideologies of sexual assault that emerge on the tumblr blog Project Unbreakable through examining eight survivor narratives. In addition, this thesis focused on discovering rhetorical strategies employed by survivors of rape and sexual assault when explicating their experiences. A rhetorical ideological critique informed by theories of feminism and cultural studies discovered ideologies of sexual assault in chosen images by employing Rice's (2004) omnaphistic visual schema to analyze postmodern visual images. In highlighting oppositional elements, co-constructed elements, contextual elements, and ideological elements in each image, this thesis was able to discover rhetorical strategies used by survivors to shed light on experiences of sexual assault.
