Download or read book Old and Thrown Away written by Marie Thunderwest and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2022-01-05 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Old and Thrown Away: One woman’s journey with her mom through the nursing home experience in the United States By: Marie Thunderwest The nightmare of COVID-19 brought to the forefront the plight of the elderly who reside in nursing homes. Most Americans have no idea of what transpires behind the walls of these facilities, the dangers they pose, and the risks we take when we move our loved ones from their homes to these so-called “homes away from home.” Marie Thunderwest lived through the harrowing experience of watching her mother, Jane, decline from a happy, active elderly woman who lived with her for over twenty-five years to a sick, dependent, fragile woman. This is Marie’s story of the journey she took with her mother into the tragic world of long-term care. Old and Thrown Away describes Marie’s six-year struggle to preserve her mom’s health and dignity in the poorly regulated, understaffed, and corrupt nursing home industry. Old and Thrown Away was written in memory of Marie’s mother. It was also written for the vulnerable elderly left behind in these facilities and for the future generations that will end up in nursing homes. In graphic and compelling words, Marie describes the battle she undertook as she journeyed with her mom through the nursing home experience. There are very few insider stories that have been written on this topic. We can check statistics, ratings, and websites, but nothing compares to the stark realities described in this book and the cry for change.
Download or read book To Throw Away Unopened written by Viv Albertine and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SHORTLISTED FOR THE COSTA BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARDS 2018 What was I fighting for? Even now I'm not sure. Something so old and so deep, it has no words, no shape, no logic. Every memoir is a battle between reality and invention - but in her follow up to Clothes, Music, Boys, Viv Albertine has reinvented the genre with her unflinching honesty. To Throw Away Unopened is a fearless dissection of one woman's obsession with the truth - the truth about family, power, and her identity as a rebel and outsider. It is a gaping wound of a book, both an exercise in blood-letting and psychological archaeology, excavating what lies beneath: the fear, the loneliness, the anger. It is a brutal expose of human dysfunctionality, the impossibility of true intimacy, and the damage wrought upon us by secrets and revelations, siblings and parents. Yet it is also a testament to how we can rebuild ourselves and come to face the world again. It is a portrait of the love stories that constitute a life, often bringing as much pain as joy. With the inimitable blend of humour, vulnerability, and intelligence that makes Viv Albertine one of our finest authors working today, To Throw Away Unopened smashes through layers of propriety and leads us into a new place of savage self-discovery.
Download or read book Thrown Away The Trauma of Starting Over After Age Fifty written by B. Corbett and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-11-14 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Older women are thrown away every day by husbands who suddenly want to play. Families are broken apart and lives are destroyed. Men often "cloak" for one another, helping to destroy womens' lives as though it were just another game. Shockingly, society condones this behavior and thrown away wives are often blamed for getting themselves thrown away. Behind many older men driving flashy sports cars are wives whose lives have been completely devastated, good women whose identities have been stolen by younger, predatory women all too eager to take take over the identity of the wives. Besides the financial devastation of the throwaways is overwhelming traumatic stress and an insurmountable burden of struggling to rebuild late in life in a society that undervalues them. This book chronicles some of their stories, illuminates the truth behind inappropriately labeled "midlife crisis" of men and exposes the truth about what happens to thrown away women. I am sure you will be surprised by what you read.
Download or read book Rubbish written by William L. Rathje and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is from the discards of former civilizations that archaeologists have reconstructed most of what we know about the past, and it is through their examination of today's garbage that William Rathje and Cullen Murphy inform us of our present. Rubbish! is their witty and erudite investigation into all aspects of the phenomenon of garbage. Rathje and Murphy show what the study of garbage tells us about a population's demographics and buying habits. Along the way, they dispel the common myths about our "garbage crisis"—about fast-food packaging and disposable diapers, about biodegradable garbage and the acceleration of the average family's garbage output. They also suggest methods for dealing with the garbage we do have.
