Book excerpt: The unplanned journey is a book about a journey I never imagined. I often wonder why God allows certain things to happen in my life. I have often heard the term that God will not give you more than you can handle. If anyone had told me that I would spend almost two decades in prison, I would have thought they had lost their mind. It was one thing to be accused of such a horrific crime, but to be charged and sent away for it, that was another thing. I thought there is no way I could ever make it through such an ordeal. I thought I would lose my mind. I surprised myself and many others. Not only did I serve each day of the seventeen years, but I did it with dignity and integrity. I grew. My faith grew, and I am a better person because of it. I must admit it was not easy at all. I was upset with God that he would allow such a thing to happen to me. His word says in Romans 11, "God treats everyone the same." Job was a man who was righteous in the sight of God, so if God would allow him to go through hard trials, why would it be any different for me? So I used this experience to make me better, not bitter.
Download or read book Unplanned Journey written by Tiggy Walker and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2015-08-28 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I found a lump in my right breast. I assumed it was a cyst, but to be sure the doc wanted me to get checked out. I trotted off for my mammogram and ultrasound like an obedient lamb. When the radiographer said he was going to take a biopsy I chirped ‘What a good idea. As I’m here.’ It was only when a woman took my hand and looked at me with her kindly yet sad face that I thought, ‘SHIT. They think it’s cancer.’ Within fifteen minutes I knew that it was.” Unplanned Journey is a breast cancer diary with candid and beautifully observed photography by award-winning photographer, Bella West. It shows the 18-month period in the life of a middle-aged woman, Tiggy Walker (who happens to be married to BBC Radio 2’s Johnnie Walker), undergoing her breast cancer treatment and reconstruction. What seemed a cruel sentence ends up with Tiggy having neater breasts than she could ever have hoped for, and a renewed outlook on her life. The journey may have been unplanned, but it is the most important one she has taken. Tiggy does not hold back in this book; she openly discusses the challenges she faced, her hatred of chemo and her relationship with Johnnie. She bravely exposes her voluptuous body for the photos, as she documents what physical changes occur. This book is essential reading for anyone who has been through cancer – as a patient or a carer – and for anyone about to go through treatment for breast cancer. Royalties from the book will be going to Carers UK.
Download or read book Resetting written by Susan B. Hassmiller and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wife and medical professional reflects on the loss of her husband in a series of reflections that reveal the emotional stages of grief and healing. Although grief and loss are universal human conditions, the idea of losing those we love is still greatly feared, largely undiscussed, and certainly not prepared for. It is no wonder people feel alone and isolated in their feelings and thoughts when loss comes to them. Longtime nurse and Red Cross volunteer Susan Beth Hassmiller is no stranger to death. Not only has she experienced the suffering of death alongside her patients, but she was blindsided by the physical and emotional toll of loss in her personal life when her husband was fatally injured in an accident. Resetting is written in a daily diary format in which Susan opens a very private window to the actual feelings and thoughts she lived through during her grief process. Raw and gripping, Resetting reveals a profound understanding of the human experience of death. By sharing her perspective as a wife, widow and medical professional, Susan helps those who going through grief gain a new perspective and a greater understanding of death, while also offering ideas on how to help those who are experiencing bereavement—from words to say to providing support.

Download or read book An Unplanned Life written by George M. Elsey and published by University of Missouri Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Unplanned Life is the scintillating memoir of George Elsey, a small-town kid from western Pennsylvania who, at age twenty-four, was assigned to Franklin Roosevelt's top-secret intelligence and communications center in the White House. As an officer in the U.S. Naval Reserve, Elsey helped brief the president and his senior associates on war events. He and his map room colleagues acted as the secretariat for Roosevelt's cabled exchanges with Winston Churchill, Joseph Stalin, and Chiang Kai-shek; filed records of "summit conferences"; and stored in safes plans for future operations. He also traveled with the president in order to code and decode the classified messages that flowed between the presidential train or ship and the White House. Elsey's duties continued with Harry Truman's succession to the presidency. He decoded the famous message from Secretary of War Henry Stimson reporting the dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and carried it to President Truman. In 1947, he shed his Naval Reserve uniform and joined the White House's civilian staff as assistant to the special counsel to the president. In 1949, he became administrative assistant to the president, and, in 1952, he became a member of the Mutual Security Agency staff. During those years, he grew very close to Harry Truman, and thus, a major portion of An Unplanned Life relates to his experiences then. In the first postwar winter, Elsey was frequently the only staff member who accompanied President Truman on the USS Williamsburg. In September 1946, Elsey submitted a report to Truman on U.S.-Soviet relations, which came to be well known as the "Clifford-Elsey Report." Providing Truman with notes for some two hundred of his "back-of-the-train" informal talks, Elsey played a part in the best remembered feature of the "Whistle-Stop Campaign" that resulted in "the political upset of the century." In addition to his years at the White House, Elsey also touches on his post-White House years-his time in private industry, his months with Clark Clifford when Clifford was trying unsuccessfully to extricate America from Vietnam, and his long association with the American Red Cross. An Unplanned Life is a fascinating look at the life of an extraordinary individual who played an important and unprecedented part in two different presidents' decisions and affected the course of our nation. Anyone with an interest in history will find this memoir fascinating and invaluable.
