Do they tell you to get divorced, or never to marry him? Do you feel emotionally addicted to him, but logically know he is bad for you and harmful for your mental health? If you live with someone who has narcissistic personality disorder, borderline personality disorder, bipolar, anxiety, depression, PTSD, or trauma, you may realize the relationship is harder than you thought.

The Midnight Miners

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 112
Book Description
"I will send you the comforter."-John 15:26 The midnight shift, at Hickory Hill Deep Mine #1, began as it had every time before that brisk November night; however, it ended like no other. The mine's midnight shift employed thirteen men, all with fitting nicknames: Hogg, Patch, Junior, Stump, Banjo, Smokin' Joe, Mule, Logger, Big Cheese, Shooter, Doc, Chewy, and Wheels. Nightly they endured the rough, raw, and extreme conditions well below the Earth's surface, relying on brotherhood, skill, and the grace of God to survive. On that fateful night, the miners were led in by Hogg and out by Big Cheese-but not before being met in the middle by the Grim Reaper. A section of the mine's roof collapsed, which left them to walk miles to safety without power and battle the shortage of pure air, the gushing water, and the unstable mine surroundings. Each man was willing to risk his own life to save another, as this is the unspoken assurance of one trusted coal brother to the next. This heartfelt novel celebrates the irrepressible humor, honor, loyalty, and heroics-even in the face of misery and tragedy-of the spirited coal mining brotherhood.

Cold War Soldier
Author: Terry Burke
Publisher: Dundurn
ISBN: 1459700821
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
The danger of participating in live-fire exercises and a Christmas spent in a military prison are described in detail in this graphic picture of military life at the height of the Cold War. "From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic, an ’iron curtain’ has descended across the continent." These words, uttered by Winston Churchill in 1946, heralded the beginning of the Cold War. In this first-hand account of a NATO soldier, Terry Stoney Burke paints a graphic picture of military life at the height of the Cold War. From the trials and tribulations of basic training, through his progress of becoming an infantryman and explosive specialist, to his posting in Germany, his pull no punches narrative tells the sometimes humorous, often poignant, story of life as a common soldier. Cold War Soldieris not a book for veterans alone. Burkes explanations of military procedures, weapons, and army life strike a happy balance between reminding ex-servicemen of things they knew but may have forgotten, and creating a clear picture for the military novice.
