Multiple Sclerosis, Melanoma and More is a sequel to the original book, Multiple Sclerosis, an Enigma. Many readers of the first book asked to read more about the lives of the characters in that book. Questions asked were "What happened next? Did your choice of no medication for MS help you or harm you? How did Melanoma fit in with MS? How is your retirement affected by having two major conditions? How has this changed your life? Are you still living happily ever after?" In an effort to answer these questions and more, honestly, a daily journal was kept, recording both physical events and emotional changes. Financial considerations, family relationships, social obligations and friendships were all a part of the journal, as were local and world events. The journal acted both as a reflective device for the author, and a vehicle for keeping family and friends updated without intrusive emails. It existed first as a blog, open to those who wished to read it anonymously. It has now become a book, the second in a series. These books will continue to grow as the second half of Terry's life takes place in the new millennium.
Teaching Volume II: Stories Reflecting the Classroom includes stories from the classroom, commentaries about teaching conditions, union status, and student support
A collection of columns previously published in the Phi Kappa Phi Forum, focusing on Education and Academics. Topics include: vignettes of students and teachers; a sample parent/teacher conference and the players involved; a retrospective look at cyclical changes in the classrooms of public schools; the necessity of parent and teacher involvement in motivating responsible funding for education
The true story of a middle-aged woman being unexpectedly diagnosed with a young person's disease: multiple sclerosis. The journey to diagnosis and the reality of the treatment brought a premature end to her career as a public school teacher. Life in "the sandwich generation" of adults caring for both their elder parents and their children, while balancing full time employment, is discussed with gentle empathy. The difficult economics and the changes in family responsibilities are also a part of this story. The consistent, caring support of family and friends and a mutual respect between patient and doctors is essential in living with a chronic condition such as Multiple Sclerosis.
