Today's Stoic, Tomorrow's Hero?
Author: Gerald T Keep
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 059536814X
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 221
Book Description
A wrenching account of one family's five-year battle with what proved to be terminal liver disease, this story explores all aspects of the difficulty in raising a family under such conditions. Written from the point of view of the primary caregiver, the story reveals much about the possible challenges facing the 17,000 families now waiting for a liver transplant in the USA. Many more face other debilitating diseases or the ravages of age. Despite his scientific training to try to understand what is happening, the author is crushed by the medical bureaucracy, and the wild ups and downs of the course of the disease. Having adopted their children, the author struggles with his fundamental values and his conflicting responsibilities to the children and to his ailing wife. This book should help friends and family better understand what a stoic experience the caregiver of one seriously ill may be going through. More importantly, it can show such a lonely individual that what they are going through is not unique, and that they need not be alone. As events proceed through hospice, funeral, and grief, the author looks back on their time together and reflects on the nature of life and love.

Nine essays by leading specialists from fields as diverse as hydrology, zoology, and law, among others, cover such issues as the status of developments in international water law; hydroelectric power; the possible effects of climatic change on water resources; and the state of fresh water fisheries. Particular chapters explore access to clean drinking water and sanitation; the use of water for energy and food production; the quality of rivers, lakes, and inland seas; and the condition of natural aquatic ecosystems. A joint project of the Pacific Institute and the Stockholm Environment Institute, this book is a comprehensive guide to the world's fresh water resources. Hydrologists, engineers, policy makers, professionals in the environmental sciences, as well as lay readers will find Water in Crisis a dynamic resource and information-packed reference. More than 200 tables of fresh water data supplement this important volume.

Tomorrow's Sights and Sounds
Author: Albert F. Schmid
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1512709360
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
Body language, music, visual displays, and even different sounds are methods of communication, but words still remain the primary method for transfer of thought. Perhaps someday in the future, humans will be able to exchange information from the brain to another person directly. But for now, we are generally limited to our language and the fragile and imprecise medium of words. The basic problem with words is that they mean different things to different people. In his teaching, Jesus used a method of using words to convey a lesson, called a parable, an earthly story with a heavenly meaning. Trying to understand or to define words is often no easy task and occasionally requires a unique methodology to accomplish the purpose. Tomorrows Sights and Sounds attempts to demonstrate an effective use of words by definition, poetry, devotionals, lessons, and a review of holidays and their religious connection. God has shown you, O man, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly, and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. (Micah 6:8)
