Have you ever given consideration to what it would be like to be deaf? Not hearing a single sound. Sure, it's quiet in your house, but you still hear sounds. I would like to think the sensation would be equitable to being underwater, but that would not be a true statement. You can still hear things while being underwater: Waves swishing and people talking above the water - yelling or laughing. Deafness is pure silence. When something big drops to the floor, I "feel" the thump it made. When my dogs bark, I can't hear them, but if they jump on my bed while I'm sleeping, I can feel they are present to wake me for a incoming visitor, burglar, tornado or other natural disaster. This book is a candid, and comical view about hearing loss, Meniere's Disease, vertigo, and the process of undergoing cochlear implant surgery. It also goes into depression and coping mechanisms for all of the above. It is a MUST read for someone or anyone you know (possibly yourself, but you won't admit it), who may be suffering from hearing loss. Progressive hearing loss is subtle. The sounds we often take for granted you no longer hear. Pay attention to your surroundings next time you are outside. Can you still hear the birds?
Fifteen stories written by deaf/hard of hearing individuals who have had cochlear implants are told within the context of unique histories that are intimate, personal and moving. Readers will gain insight into the personal struggles and challenges for those who made the decision to get a cochlear implant. The writers share their process over the decision to obtain an implant as well as the delights and disappointments in hearing with one. Many of the book's contributors noted how their involvement in the deaf community and Deaf culture influenced their perceptions of cochlear implants.
Brian and Kerith had plans for their family. That all changed six weeks into the pregnancy of their second child when Kerith got chicken pox. Fears flooded their lives for months. When she was eight months pregnant, they received more bad news. Their baby was also affected by a completely different virus, cytomegalovirus (CMV). There was a forty percent chance their baby would not survive. Brielle not only survived, but thrived despite cerebral palsy caused by CMV and is now nearly 18 years old. Brielle and Me is a mother's story of how they managed life with a daughter with cerebral palsy while navigating through developmental therapy, doctors, school, and relationships with friends and family. This is their journey of hope, determination, love, and faith.

When Elizabeth Fleming was born in difficult circumstance, it was decided that she was dead. She was taken to the mortuary. It was only when the doctor when to certify her death that he noticed a tiny movement. This is the inspiring story of a life that almost didn't happen, a life spent overcoming the difficulties caused by Cerebral Palsy and by people's reactions to disability. **************************************** 'I often thought of writing about my life and the difficulties my family and I have had to face. There was no one around to ask how my disability would affect things. I felt bitter against the world. Why me? Why not somebody else? You know, if I had the chance to go back now, I wouldn't change a thing. I'd like to take out my bad parts, but no one's perfect. I've always known that I'm very lucky to have had such a loving family and such very good friends and I'd like to thank them for all they've done to shape me into who I am today.'

Home is as old as one's skin but as elusive as an object seen through the wrong end of a telescope. It is this sense of a view, skewed, intangible, which echoes throughout Karen Lazar's Hemispheres. Waking in hospital after a post-operative stroke, she finds one side of her body paralysed and her world knocked out of kilter. Spatial, perceptual and subjective changes force her to view her new life in facets. The fragmented view is made apparent by means of a triptych of clusters which charts Karen's experience from Metamorphosis, through rehabilitation and adaptation. Quietly reflective, deeply lyrical, Hemispheres is concerned with returning separated parts into a whole and coming home to the self. Hemisphere will appeal to health care workers, like physiotherapists, OTs, neurologists, social workers, psychologists and others who deal with stroke patients and those who have had to deal with debilitating and incapacitating illnesses and conditions as well as anyone who has undergone a stroke, major surgery or any life changing and debilitating event which has affected the way they react to themselves and the world around them. It is a title for family and friends of stroke patients, survivors of debilitating physical changes.
This is a collection of poems that I have written about my almost three year old autistic son. I wanted to share these with other parents of autistic children. The hope is that parents may relate to the challenges and triumphs our children may face daily. There are many different characteristics that a child with autism may have. My son is extremely intelligent as are many autistic children. Where he needs special attention is in his social skills. These poems focus on very basic and everyday functions that I found compelling enough to write about.
