A laugh-out-loud tale about living with Multiple Sclerosis that
proves life isn't over even if you're disabled. David Ashton has a
wicked sense of humour that helps him deal with frustrating health
department staff, unhelpful government officials, and all the
physical challenges of living with increasing disability.
Perceptive and encouraging, this astonishingly frank story will
change the way disabled people are viewed by society.
NEW JOINTS is a must-read for anyone considering joint replacement.
Though the illustrated exercises focus on knees and hips, the
information directly relates to preparing for any orthopedic
surgery. Written in a non-technical, approachable format, this
manual addresses subjects that are applicable not only to those
considering surgery, but to anyone who wants to learn how to better
move in their own body. Chapters include: how to personalize
exercises; the importance of setting goals and how to do so;
understanding pain; balance and proprioception; self image;
developing support systems; websites and books to use as additional
tools. NEW JOINTS is also an excellent tool for helping readers
learn how to communicate their own specific orthopedic issues and
needs to doctors and physical therapists. Ms. Wolfe has worked with
both groups and individuals as a fitness trainer, as a massage
therapist, and has worked with many individuals before and after
orthopedic surgeries. Both she and her husband have been through
their own injuries and orthopedic surgeries, and NEW JOINTS is
informed by her experiences in maintaining their functioning.
A 25-year-old backcountry wanderer, a man happiest exploring wild
places with his dog, Dan Bigley woke up one midsummer morning to a
day full of promise. Before it was over, after a stellar day of
salmon fishing along Alaska's Kenai and Russian rivers, a grizzly
came tearing around a corner in the trail. Dan barely had time for
"bear charging" to register before it had him on the ground,
altering his life forever. "Upper nose, eyes, forehead anatomy
unrecognizable," as the medevac report put it. Until then, one
thing after another had fallen into place in Dan's life. He had a
job he loved taking troubled kids on outdoor excursions. He had
just bought a cabin high in the Chugach Mountains with a view that
went on forever. He was newly in love. After a year of being
intrigued by a woman named Amber, they had just spent their first
night together. All of this was shattered by the mauling that
nearly killed him, that left him blind and disfigured. Facing
paralyzing pain and inconceivable loss, Dan was in no shape to be
in a relationship. He and Amber let each other go. Five surgeries
later, partway into his long healing journey, they found their way
back to each other. The couple's unforgettable story is one of
courage, tenacious will, and the power of love to lead the way out
of darkness. Dan Bigley's triumph over tragedy is a testament to
the ability of the human spirit to overcome physical and emotional
devastation, to choose not just to live, but to live fully. Visit
Dan Bigley's site or Beyond the Bear.
