Osteoarthritis is generally regarded as a progressive disease
related to aging, 'wear & tear' and former injury that can be
kept at bay with anti-inflammatories and painkillers but will lead
inevitably to disability, surgery and joint replacement. But do not
despair! As Professor Sir Sam Everington, London GP and a board
member of NHS Clinical Commissioners, says: 'This book is not just
about length of life, it is about something much more important - a
happy and healthy life, whatever is thrown at you. It is about
self-motivation and wellbeing. It should be prescribed on the NHS
by all doctors. It can't be, but if you have osteoarthritis or want
to live a happier and healthier life, buying this book is the best
investment you could make.' Health writer and long-term arthritis
sufferer/tamer Frances Ive has been researching and experimenting
with ways to live well with osteoarthritis for many years and has
developed this new, holistic, practical guide embracing exercise,
diet, weight loss, complementary therapies and other strategies
that will allow a full and active life. While existing books focus
on nutrition/diet alone, or on the dangers of prescription drugs,
One Step Ahead of Osteoarthritis looks at a wide range of
approaches and how each can contribute to being healthy and pain
free.
A picture book geared to help parents and counselors communicate
with young children about a parent’s suicide. Oliver’s daddy
loved him—a whole bunch, forever and for always. One day
Oliver’s daddy died by suicide. Why? Oliver’s mommy hugs him
tight, and she tells him why. And she reassures Oliver that his
daddy loved him—and that will never change. In developmentally
appropriate language and evocative illustrations, this picture book
helps open communication about why a parent completes suicide. A
reader’s note offers more information about supporting children
who have lost a parent to suicide.
