Pages : 194
Book Description
NOW Living the Dream: A Tale of Surviving Cancer by Daksha Trivedi is a testament to her brave journey through an aggressive cancer which brings to light the power of hope as she learns to accept uncertainty. Daksha's story of endurance began long before receiving an unexpected and a devastating diagnosis of cancer in her lower oesophagus. She had hardly come to terms with the painful loss of her twin brother from advanced cancer only six months earlier but finds courage to bring solace to her elderly widowed mother who had lost both her beloved sons. Her journey takes us through her diagnosis, the challenges of treatment decisions and recovery from a life- threatening oesophagectomy. Her deeply moving story, whilst that of survival embraces the reality of her condition and conveys profound themes of relentless determination and a commitment to positive strategies at a time of pain and suffering. This book highlights the patient's and the family's distress and encourages health care professionals to find ways of engaging with people from different cultures, especially where there is a family history of cancer. Whilst Daksha faced numerous challenges during a long and a difficult period of recovery, she, together with her family found ways of getting her life back. Her remarkable story is an inspiration to patients, families and practitioners and provides a valuable insight into finding courage to cope with adversity. It acknowledges a dearth of research evidence on oesophageal cancer, though great strides are being made to detect early conditions that can increase a person's risk of developing cancer. This poignant and human story draws together everything Daksha and her family have realised about living well in the moment. She also discovers the true meaning of faith, love and hope as she begins to talk about cancer. In her honest and inspiring account, she shares her learnings to live a life full of purpose, being deeply grateful for the gift of time. This book was completed in the shadow of the Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic. The author intends to donate proceeds from the sale of this book to appropriate charities.

Both Sides Now
Author: Dhillon Khosla
Publisher: Untreed Reads
ISBN: 1611878039
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
Both Sides Now is a vivid and compelling account of how one man’s search for wholeness led him through multiple, complex, and life-threatening surgeries that transformed him not only physically, but emotionally and spiritually as well. Born with the body of a female, Dhillon Khosla knew very early on that his true identity was male, yet he spent nearly two decades repressing that knowledge and trying to embrace his female form. Shortly after turning twenty-eight, he came across an article about men born with female bodies who had undergone surgeries to reclaim their male identity. When he read their stories, Khosla felt flashes of recognition stirring within and—for the first time—hope. In this riveting memoir, Khosla discusses openly and honestly what it was like to live as a woman, and how that life shaped the man he is today. Through anecdotes, he shares unique and profound insights into the sexes. Ultimately, however, Both Sides Now is a story about what it means to truly love oneself, and the willingness to turn away from the dissenting voices that tell us who we ought to be…and toward that one, lone voice that has known all along.

Pages : 161
Book Description
“Most people never live their dreams as entrepreneurs because they give up. Afraid of the risk. By reading Tina and Harold Lewis’s book A Journey by Faith, those who are searching for what makes a successful business can discover the two most vital things: God and Family.”—Rolland Martin, Journalist, TV commentator, TV One, CNN “Everyone loves a love story. Here it is. A perfect love between Tina and Harold and their super successful entrepreneurial achievements, against all odds. It’s beautiful, heart-touching, and profoundly inspiring. I predict you will like it.”—Mark Victor Hansen Co-Creator of Chicken Soup for the Soul series “Harold and Tina know the meaning of Success from the ground up. They understand the Value of hard work, drive and dedication. They just don't talk about it they live it. A remarkable story and remarkable couple!”—Stedman Graham, Author, Speaker From the foreword by Andrew Young: “Harold and Tina’s book, aptly titled A Journey of Faith, revisits the essence of trust in a modern context. This includes everything from corporate politics to raising children to facing dire health challenges. From the beginning, everything Tina and Harold undertake is for creating a legacy for their children—as they themselves were given a legacy from their own parents of integrity, hard work, and unwavering faith. “While the goal of Tina and Harold’s life is success, I want to emphasize again that this means success in a broad definition. It doesn’t mean getting rich. In fact, I don’t believe the word ‘rich’ occurs even once in the book. From the beginning, everything Tina and Harold undertake is for creating a legacy for their children—as they themselves were given a legacy from their own parents of integrity, hard work, and unwavering faith.”

The Journey of Faith is a tale of his spiritual and physical journey and events that he encountered as a renegade priest with some viewpoints and observations of religion and history.

There are many questions asked but the answers are up to the reader. Richard Money doesn't expect Journey of Faith to be a record-breaking novel. In fact, the only reason it is being written is because so many people have told Richard over the years that he has a book in him. When is he going to get it out? Well, here it comes, for better or for worse. Journey of Faith is comprised of many incidents in his life that he believes may show not what he has done, but what he has become with the Grace of God. If you are looking for a religious experience, we don't think you will find it here, although you may. We are not making any promises. Journey of Faith will stimulate the mind to see the real messages of Jesus. What makes this book unique is the ingredients of life, and the events of a married priest after being married, and the training of priests of sixty years ago.
