From the foreword by Ray Gottlieb, O.D., Ph.D.: "I'm pleased to see that Esther Joy van der Werf has written Read Without Glasses at Any Age now. Its publication brings a fresh look at Bates' work at a time when it's really needed. Her book gets straight to the point. It is free of fluff and true to Bates' approach and includes plenty of his original writing about his own and his patients' experiences of learning to see small print without artificial aids. Esther's little book takes just an hour or two to read but success comes by learning, doing and staying with the process until it becomes part of who you are, all day, every day for the rest of your life."

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.

(Black & White Version) If you have picked up this book, it is likely that your child or someone you know was recently diagnosed with hearing loss. Without a doubt, what you face is serious. However, there is good news: Hearing loss is treatable, and treatment may start at birth. If you want your child to hear and speak and live in a hearing world, then this book is for you. It is extremely important to act quickly once the diagnosis of hearing impairment is made or suspected in a child. The human hearing system develops rapidly from before birth and during the first few years of life. If critical periods of development are missed, no amount of intervention can correct those losses. The age at which the treatment began is the single most important factor in predicting successful treatment of congenital hearing impairment in children. LetThemHear.org

"Carrie Dearborn's no-holds-barred approach to talking about disability wrestles us to the ground from her wheelchair. Surprising, disarming, painful, funny - you'll go through every emotion and reach new understanding as you let go of pre-conceived notions about how to deal with disability, whether you are temporarily abled or not." - Meizhu Lui, Co-Author, The Color of Wealth "Interspersed between the author's accounts of surviving a life-threatening stroke, readers will find useful practical advice for coping with adult onset disability and, more importantly, life outside of the hospital. This book offers sound, practical advice grounded in years of experience from a woman with a terrific sense of humor. The writing is deep enough to be engaging but written in sections brief enough to allow the reader to digest and reflect upon the important concepts presented. While the author claims to have written this book for people who are recovering from similar injuries to her own, their families, and loved ones, I believe it is equally beneficial for health care professionals. Carrie provides important recommendations about interacting with people who are emerging from comas that will help health care professionals understand what is and what is not helpful to their patients. In turn, learning how to provide more sensitive care will reward care providers with that wonderful feeling associated with knowing they have made valuable contributions to someone's health and healing." - Susan Hallenborg Ventura, Director of Clinical Education & Associate Clinical Professor at Northeastern University Topics covered include: Fresh Out of a Coma For Friends and Family Possibilities: Aim High, Start Slow Post-Coma Nightmares and Fresh Losses A Rainbow for the Blues: Why I Like Wheelchairs God's Windows Explained: Dealing with Feelings of Gloom and Doom OK, Feel Good Time: Heroes and Sheroes to Inspire Us Calling All Vegetables: Surpassing Low Expectations Life Threatening Disease Issues A Burden?: Getting Out of the Guilt and Burden Trap How to Almost Die: and Why You Should Stay Alive How to Have Fun in the Hospital Miscellaneous Things Hospital Food: Avoidance Tips How it (Usually) Works: Who's Who in the Hospital Patient's Bill of Rights - My Version What to Anticipate: Small Joys Brain Damage: Journal of my first post-coma year Disability 101: Where to go for Housing, Work and Benefits A Little Street Action Before you go: From Bedsores to Bumpy Roads Survival Tactics You're out Getting Around and other Post-Hospital Challenges State House Nursing Home: Taking Political Action or Making Trouble in My Adopted Home Town Wheelchair Flying: My Favorite Sport The Questions: Q&A with the Author Bibliography Resources
