Book excerpt: Surgery Sucks isn't about surgery. It's about a surgical alternative for common aches and pains that's non-invasive, quicker, safer and much more effective than cutting, slicing, dicing and zapping otherwise healthy human tissue. Surgery Sucks demonstrates -- complete with step-by-step instructions and photos -- more than 100 powerful, two-person stretching techniques , known as The Rossiter System, to keep the body and its connective tissue system loose, pain-free and functioning naturally, the way it's supposed to. Think of this as a maintenance manual for the body, a guide to help people avoid or delay surgery for everyday, common, pain-related problems, including carpal tunnel syndrome, low back pain, hip pain, stiff necks, sore shoulders and arms, foot pain, heel spurs and plantar fasciitis, knee pain, tight calf muscles and hamstrings, restless/jumpy legs, hand, finger and thumb pain, migraines and stress headaches...and more! All that's required is a foam mat, clean pair of stocks, a chair and willing stretching partner.

Download or read book My Parent Has Cancer and It Really Sucks written by Marc Silver and published by Sourcebooks, Inc.. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let's face it, cancer sucks. This book provides real-life advice from real-life teens designed to help teens live with a parent who is fighting cancer. One million American teenagers live with a parent who is fighting cancer. It's a hard blow for those already navigating high school, preparing for college, and becoming increasingly independent. Author Maya Silver was 15 when her mom was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2001. She and her dad, Marc, have combined their family's personal experience with advice from dozens of medical professionals and real stories from 100 teens—all going through the same thing Maya did. The topic of cancer can be difficult to approach, but in a highly designed, engaging style, this book gives practical guidance that includes: How to talk about the diagnosis (and what does diagnosis even mean, anyway?) The best outlets for stress (punching a wall is not a great one, but should it happen, there are instructions for a patch job) How to deal with friends (especially one the ones with 'pity eyes') Whether to tell the teachers and guidance counselors and what they should know (how not to get embarrassed in class) What happens in a therapy session and how to find a support group if you want one A special section for parents also gives tips on strategies for sharing the news and explaining cancer to a child, making sure your child doesn't become the parent, what to do if the outlook is grim, and tips for how to live life after cancer. My Parent Has Cancer and It Really Sucks allows teens to see that they are not alone. That no matter how rough things get, they will get through this difficult time. That everything they're feeling is ok. Essays from Gilda Radner's "Gilda's Club" annual contest are an especially poignant and moving testimony of how other teens dealt with their family's situation.

Rauch MD, Director of the Marjorie E. Korff Parenting At a Challenging Time Program "A must read for parents, kids, teachers and medical staff who know anyone with cancer.

Download or read book Hello I Want to Die Please Fix Me written by Anna Mehler Paperny and published by The Experiment. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An engrossing memoir-meets-investigative report that takes a fresh, frank look at how we treat depression. Depression is a havoc-wreaking illness that masquerades as personal failing and hijacks your life. After a major suicide attempt in her early twenties, Anna Mehler Paperny resolved to put her reporter’s skills to use to get to know her enemy, setting off on a journey to understand her condition, the dizzying array of medical treatments on offer, and a medical profession in search of answers. Charting the way depression wrecks so many lives, she maps competing schools of therapy, pharmacology, cutting-edge medicine, the pill-popping pitfalls of long-term treatment, the glaring unknowns and the institutional shortcomings that both patients and practitioners are up against. She interviews leading medical experts across the US and Canada, from psychiatrists to neurologists, brain-mapping pioneers to family practitioners, and others dabbling in strange hypotheses—and shares compassionate conversations with fellow sufferers. Hello I Want to Die Please Fix Me tracks Anna’s quest for knowledge and her desire to get well. Impeccably reported, it is a profoundly compelling story about the human spirit and the myriad ways we treat (and fail to treat) the disease that accounts for more years swallowed up by disability than any other in the world. If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts, help is available. Contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 800-273-8255.

Download or read book 50 Thorns and Blossoms written by Julie Marie Todd and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-08-11 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Julie Marie Todd, educator, activist, journalizer, and theologian, shares 50 of her writings. Most pieces are in a poetic prose style - a predominantly long-form, stream-of-consciousness writing from journal entries and writing groups - alongside a few lengthier prose essays and previously published works. The author explores her own inner emotional terrain and spirituality and how life in both solitude and community generates creativity, vulnerability, and change. She shares much of her journey from life as an institutional church leader to a wider embrace of spiritual leadership beyond hierarchy and traditional religion. From sweet odes to plant life to encounters with ancestors, from confessions of addiction and abortion to body love and self-hatred, from ongoing self-examination of the author's own complicity in white, Christian supremacy to rants against racism and heteropatriarchy, many readers will find Julie's writing compelling, provocative, and relatable.

At first, she sees this world as an outsider, but soon learns to adjust to the often extremely challenging and demanding conditions. Frank, the gang's hard, arrogant, and simultaneously charming and secretive leader, unexpectedly falls in love with her. He would do anything for the girl, but it is not only the age difference that stands between them, but also continual danger, where even a momentary loss of focus can turn catastrophic...
