This Is A New Release Of The Original 1826 Edition.
Less than two months past her fifty-third birthday Anna Marie
Porter suffered a stroke caused by the rupture of a cerebral
cavernous malformation. She was suddenly paralyzed on her right
side, unable to use any of her appendages save three fingers In the
wake of such a life-altering event--and faced with months of
rehab--she found comfort in poking fun at her situation; humor
became her survival mechanism. What's so funny about having a
stroke? Not much unless you have a healthy sense of humor--or even
an unhealthy one! And if you're going to take a death-defying leap
into the world of serious illness, "What good is sitting alone in
your room?" So she didn't. She invited her friends, family, and
colleagues in to her virtual hospital room through an online blog.
That blog became the basis for this book. May Day: Recovering Humor
From a Stroke is sometimes poignant, often funny, and always an
enlightening look into the world of recovering from a serious
setback.

It was a dark time, but a light shone the way. It was a time of
sadness, but also a time of joy. Green Grove was a place not only
in terms of geography, but also in terms of a community with a
mindset and paradigm of unparalleled and unending proportions. "A
Grateful People: An Historical Account of the Founding of a
Community," chronicles the lives of the people who inhabited this
piece of God's green earth-Green Grove, Lumpkin, Georgia.
In Green Grove, some owned their land and taught their children
to do the same, while others sharecropped and lived a different
kind of life trying as best they could to eke out a living working
for the landowner. They may have been working for a man who treated
them differently while their parents taught them that being
different did not make them less. It was because of Green Grove-the
physical and psychological place-that the children who lived there
were able to become productive citizens throughout the United
States of America and the world.
"A Grateful People" chronicles the life of a place that broke
through the challenges of the times to create a place of hope where
dreams of success became a reality with hard work and
perseverance.
