Book Description
On January 14, 2004, Janet Torge learns that her dynamic twenty-five-year-old son, Sam Lazarus, has contracted cerebral malaria and died while on a dream adventure to Africa. Janet is suddenly plunged into a nightmare but is determined to deal with her despair in a very unique way. She begins writing letters to cope with the horror of her loss and to chronicle the farewell journey that must inevitably follow. Like many grieving parents, Janet writes to capture her heartache. But Sam's early physical challenges forged a powerful bond between mother and son, and Janet is able to imagine the world from Sam's perspective. She creates responses to her letters that not only describe Sam's own journey but also provide words of comfort to an anguished mother. The result is a heartfelt and poignant goodbye unlike any other. Counselors and books can comfort and advise, but only a grieving parent can fully understand the hell of losing a child. With intimacy, humour, and honesty, this memoir illuminates the darkness that follows the death of a loved one.

We Are the Caretakers
Author: Titus Pankey III
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1728351464
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
I believe that we have accomplished the goals that were set in that unaccredited school that we created. A majority of the forming members of that school are now corporate caretakers, educator and lawyer, entrepreneurs, developers, and investors. More than half of those from that school of sharecroppers are either multi-millionaires or mega-millionaires. From that school there is one husband and wife team who started with only fifty dollars saved from a share from three years of yearly sharecropper’s payout during the year nineteen-nineteen to a nineteen-thirty-four recorded net worth of over eighteen million dollars. It is good to conspire and plan when you are trying to determine which way you are going. It is also good to remember which direction that you have come from.
