Counting the Days While My Mind Slips Away
Author: Ben Utecht
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1501136690
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
After five major concussions, NFL tight-end Ben Utecht of the Indianapolis Colts and Cincinnati Bengals is losing his memories. This is his powerful and emotional love letter to his wife and daughters—whom he someday may not recognize—and an inspiring message for all to live every moment fully. Ben Utecht has accumulated a vast treasure of memories: tossing a football in the yard with his father, meeting his wife, with whom he’d build a loving partnership and bring four beautiful daughters into the world, writing and performing music, catching touchdown passes from quarterback Peyton Manning, and playing a Super Bowl Championship watched by ninety-three million people. But the game he has built his living on, the game he fell in love with as a child, is taking its toll in a devastating way. After at least five major concussions—and an untold number of micro-concussions—Ben suffered multiple mild traumatic brain injuries that have erased important memories. Knowing that his wife and daughters could someday be beyond his reach and desperate for them to understand how much he loves them, he recorded his memories for them to hold on to after his essential self is gone. Counting the Days While My Mind Slips Away chronicles his remarkable journey from his early days throwing a football back and forth with his father to speaking about the long-term effects of concussions before Congress, and how his faith keeps him strong and grounded as he looks toward an uncertain future. Ben recounts the experiences that have shaped his life and imparts the lessons he’s learned along the way. Emotionally powerful, inspiring, and uplifting, Ben’s story will captivate and encourage you to make the most of every day and treasure all of your memories.

Sixty Days and Counting
Author: Kim Stanley Robinson
Publisher: Spectra
ISBN: 0553903500
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 402
Book Description
By the time Phil Chase is elected president, the world’s climate is far on its way to irreversible change. Food scarcity, housing shortages, diminishing medical care, and vanishing species are just some of the consequences. The erratic winter the Washington, D.C., area is experiencing is another grim reminder of a global weather pattern gone haywire: bone-chilling cold one day, balmy weather the next. But the president-elect remains optimistic and doesn’t intend to give up without a fight. A maverick in every sense of the word, Chase starts organizing the most ambitious plan to save the world from disaster since FDR–and assembling a team of top scientists and advisers to implement it. For Charlie Quibler, this means reentering the political fray full-time and giving up full-time care of his young son, Joe. For Frank Vanderwal, hampered by a brain injury, it means trying to protect the woman he loves from a vengeful ex and a rogue “black ops” agency not even the president can control–a task for which neither Frank’s work at the National Science Foundation nor his study of Tibetan Buddhism can prepare him. In a world where time is running out as quickly as its natural resources, where surveillance is almost total and freedom nearly nonexistent, the forecast for the Chase administration looks darker each passing day. For as the last–and most terrible–of natural disasters looms on the horizon, it will take a miracle to stop the clock . . . the kind of miracle that only dedicated men and women can bring about.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
My parents-in-law liked to keep the letters they wrote to each other. When they died, there were several boxes of them, the first written in 1932, the innocent flirtations of an eighteen year old girl to a seventeen year old boy, the last in 1946, from an army officer to the wife he had been separated from for five years. "I couldn't bring myself to throw them away", my brother in law said, "I'm sure there's a story here somewhere". And here it is: the story of John and Janie Askew, an ordinary couple living through extraordinary times. They could be your parents or grandparents: the innocent courtship in the 1930's, marriage and settling down to family life, then the hardship and separation through war. A unique insight into life in England and on active service overseas during World War Two and the story of a love that crossed counties and continents and went on to last a lifetime.
