Book Description
"Lorrin was born in Newport Beach, California, March 15, 1994. At six weeks old, Lorrin had an adverse reaction to her one and only DPT vaccination. The vaccine attacked her brain, leaving her with severe brain damage. The doctors never had hope for Lorrin's future. Feeling abandoned by modern medicine, Karen turned to alternative treatments and spiritual guidance. Despite all of Karen's best efforts, Lorrin continued to have horrible episodes of uncontrolled seizures that would land them in the hospital for days. Karen's world fell apart. Blind, non-verbal, a quadraplegic with daily seizures, Lorrin only had the ability to blink to communicate. Life as Karen knew it was put "on hold" as she tried everything that she could to "heal" Lorrin and give her the best life possible...and she succeeded...in unfathomable ways that lights up the journey for other families. Karen travels around the county inspiring families with her personal story of raising a medically fragile, vaccine-injured daughter as a single mom. Karen shares how she bridged the gap from special needs to creating mainstream experiences in all arenas of life for Lorrin: best friends, slumber parties, concerts, camping, beauty pageants, Girl Scouts, school dances, musicals and endless travels. Her book describes the unique and extraordinary life experiences that Karen created for Lorrin and the strong bond and soul connection between mother and daughter..."--From http://www.ncreview.com/biography/a-unique-life-fully-lived.

A Unique Life at Sea

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 469
Book Description
It was a hot fine day in the middle of November 2003 in the very upper part of the mighty Amazon River in Iquitos Peru where I ended up living for 15 years, when I started to write on this autobiography, realizing that my life at sea had been extremely special in every aspect ever since I started at sea 1963 as a barely 16-year young teenager facing some weird events that would shape me for the rest of my future life at sea, and I was longing to see the real world before I die. Though I was not a writer the idea of writing this book emerged in a moment of great sadness in February 2002 In Antarctica when I started to think about how it could be, that I was commanding the 2398-ton The World’s First Expedition Cruise Ship MS Explorer [Lindblad Explorer] the “Ship in The Wilderness” and my destination was the Prince Gustav Sound in the Weddell Sea east of the Antarctic Peninsula in the Antarctic wilderness, when one of my passengers standing behind my back suddenly said: “This is really going to make the boys back at the golf club jealous”. To write about my own experiences feels kind of strange and from the start I knew that I was incapable of producing a strict biography of all the stunning account of adventures I have had and discoveries we made in those years onboard the Lindblad Explorer in the early 70 ́s as well as on the Explorer.

Quarterlife Crisis
Author: Alexandra Robbins
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101215860
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
While the midlife crisis has been thoroughly explored by experts, there is another landmine period in our adult development, called the quarterlife crisis, which can be just as devastating. When young adults emerge at graduation from almost two decades of schooling, during which each step to take is clearly marked, they encounter an overwhelming number of choices regarding their careers, finances, homes, and social networks. Confronted by an often shattering whirlwind of new responsibilities, new liberties, and new options, they feel helpless, panicked, indecisive, and apprehensive. Quarterlife Crisis is the first book to document this phenomenon and offer insightful advice on smoothly navigating the challenging transition from childhood to adulthood, from school to the world beyond. It includes the personal stories of more than one hundred twentysomethings who describe their struggles to carve out personal identities; to cope with their fears of failure; to face making choices rather than avoiding them; and to balance all the demanding aspects of personal and professional life. From "What do all my doubts mean?" to "How do I know if the decisions I'm making are right?" this book compellingly addresses the hardest questions facing young adults today.

Anarchafeminism
Author: Chiara Bottici
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1350095850
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
How can we be sure the oppressed do not become oppressors in their turn? How can we create a feminism that doesn't turn into yet another tool for oppression? It has become commonplace to argue that, in order to fight the subjugation of women, we have to unpack the ways different forms of oppression intersect with one another: class, race, gender, sexuality, disability, and ecology, to name only a few. By arguing that there is no single factor, or arche, explaining the oppression of women, Chiara Bottici proposes a radical anarchafeminist philosophy inspired by two major claims: that there is something specific to the oppression of women, and that, in order to fight that, we need to untangle all other forms of oppression and the anthropocentrism they inhabit. Anarchism needs feminism to address the continued subordination of all femina, but feminism needs anarchism if it does not want to become the privilege of a few. Anarchafeminism calls for a decolonial and deimperial position and for a renewed awareness of the somatic communism connecting all different life forms on the planet. In this new revolutionary vision, feminism does not mean the liberation of the lucky few, but liberation for all living creatures from both capitalist exploitation and an androcentric politics of domination. Either all or none of us will be free.
