Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It started out to be what I would identify as a normal day. After work I was running an errand. I was in a parking lot when the car in front of me started to back up, so I extended my arm on the steering wheel to beep. I was hit anyway. There wasn't any damage, and I felt fine, so I didn't think it was necessary to exchange names, but luckily I remembered his license plate. Thirty to forty-five minutes later, my shoulder started to ache. Ten days later, my arm and hand were nonfunctional. It started out as a sprain, and it developed into reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD), which is currently known as complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). Unfortunately, when my insurance company contacted the man who had backed into me, he denied it. Nearly two years later, thirty-two hours before the statute of limitation was up, there was a twist of fate; I was blindsided with a phone call. And this is when I hired my attorney, Elliott Pelegrin. It's my hope after reading, If You Get Me Out of This One...,readers will realize one needs determination not only to recover from RSD/CRPS, but any conflict. I was in for the fight of my life, I made it through because I did exactly what my doctors, therapists, and attorney told me to do. It took a lot of time, work, patience, and mostly determination. I gave it my best shot. Several times I've heard Robin Roberts from Good Morning America say, "Make your mess your message." It took me twenty-nine years before I could openly discuss my mess.

Download or read book Gryphons of the Sandhills written by Sheila H. Forman, Ph.D. and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Douglas M. Edgeworth reveals what it was like for an everyday family trying to make ends meet in South Carolina from 1918 to 1945 with this well-researched collection of 201 letters. Based in the Angelus community of Chesterfield County, South Carolina, the Edgeworth family included Raymond and Leoard, who lived up to family's coat of arms that included a gryphon, which signifies being a guardian and protector of women. They were not the only members of the Edgeworth family to leave a lasting mark: Sallie Edgeworth moved with her seven children to a cotton farm on County Route 33 when her husband died, taking care of her children at all costs--even when it meant mortgaging her crop of cotton, cotton seed, corn, and fodder. Corbett had plans of making millions, and had a knack for painting rosy pictures, which allowed him to coerce people to go along with his schemes. But an addiction to alcohol and drugs would lead him not to riches but to a life filled with hardships and unmet potential. Numerous other family members are profiled, and you'll see what they came up against in their own words in the revealing letters featured in Gryphons of the Sandhills.
Download or read book Do They Hear You When You Cry written by Fauziya Kassindja and published by Delta. This book was released on 1999-01-12 with total page 543 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Fauziya Kassindja, an idyllic childhood in Togo, West Africa, sheltered from the tribal practices of polygamy and genital mutilation, ended with her beloved father's sudden death. Forced into an arranged marriage at age seventeen, Fauziya was told to prepare for kakia, the ritual also known as female genital mutilation. It is a ritual no woman can refuse. But Fauziya dared to try. This is her story--told in her own words--of fleeing Africa just hours before the ritual kakia was to take place, of seeking asylum in America only to be locked up in U.S. prisons, and of meeting Layli Miller Bashir, a law student who became Fauziya's friend and advocate during her horrifying sixteen months behind bars. Layli enlisted help from Karen Musalo, an expert in refugee law and acting director of the American University International Human Rights Clinic. In addition to devoting her own considerable efforts to the case, Musalo assembled a team to fight with her on Fauziya's behalf. Ultimately, in a landmark decision in immigration history, Fauziya Kassindja was granted asylum on June 13, 1996. Do They Hear You When You Cry is her unforgettable chronicle of triumph.

Download or read book word on the street eBook written by Rob Lacey and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2009-05-18 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For those who’ve never read the Bible and for those who’ve read it too much. Lacey’s “dangerously real” retelling of Scripture vividly demonstrates that the Bible is packed full of stories, poems, and images that resonate with the big issues of today. This fresh paraphrase-come-running-commentary brings the text alive: Bible stories are retold as mini blockbusters; psalms as song lyrics; epistles as emails; Revelation as seen through a virtual reality headset. Out with stale religious terms, here’s a “Bible” which talks today’s language—gritty, earthy, and witty. Enough starting at Genesis with good intentions and getting lost in Leviticus-Lacey succeeds in revitalizing a classic work by focusing on the big picture: fast-forwarding through the “slow-moving” bits with pace, passion, and energy to make the Bible a page turner. Lacey’s tour de force was created during a remarkable personal journey through terminal cancer: the stuff Bible stories are made of. This life-experience injects Lacey’s take on Scripture with authenticity and authority—resonating with Bible characters who also wrestled with the big questions. Purist alert: This is not THE Bible (capital B)… but it might just get you reaching for one.
