Описание: This newborn may die. That's what the doctors in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of Duke Children's Hospital implied. Caden, a beautiful baby boy, was born with something seriously wrong. A normal pregnancy followed by a normal birth unexpectedly led to a questionable survival prognosis. Extensive medical testing eventually revealed a rare genetic muscular disorder, Congenital Fiber Type Disproportion, caused by a mutation and deletion on the RYR-1 gene. In this inspirational memoir, Caden's grandmother describes the days, weeks, and months that follow this devastating diagnosis. Regardless of the outcome, the family commits to facing Caden's uncertain future with faith, hope, love, and courage. Sometimes they will falter; nevertheless, through every challenge, disappointment, and accomplishment, they firmly believe that Caden is "the perfect child for us."

Описание:
We do not get to choose our parents or the families into which we are born. That is predestined by God, for those who believe it. We are all born innocent, but for many, that time of innocence passes much too quickly. Such was the case for Laura Faye Flannery (Red), nicknamed for her thick copper red mane. Her days of childhood innocence came to an abrupt ending when she was thrown into a life that she did not want or ask for. Red would spend the next twenty-five years trying to escape from her life, living on daydreams and secrets to ease her sadness, while raising the children that were brought into that life. They too were innocent. Red had hoped that she might write a book one day about what had transpired from the first day she married Louk Papadakas, a domineering Greek man, who had many secrets of his own. But as the years disappeared, so did Red's mind. As dementia and later full Alzheimer's took over the memory of this brave and determined woman, her daughter, Melina, decided to write the story for her. Melina and her siblings had been raised in this fallacious marriage but held a loyalty for both parents, even though they had each suffered the brunt of it. Though Melina had lived through much of it herself, there were missing pieces that still lay hidden in her mother's memory. As Melina wrote the final chapters of her mother's story, she received a great gift, a deeper love and forgiveness, and she knew that God had shown her the reason for it all. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. (Psalm 139:16)

Описание: The Olympic runner, actress, filmmaker and writer Alexi Pappas shares what she's learned about confidence, self-reliance, mental health, embracing pain, and achieving your dreams. "Heartbreaking and hilarious."--Mindy Kaling - "A beautiful read."--Ruth Reichl - "Essential guidance to anyone dreaming big dreams."--Shalane Flanagan - "I couldn't put it down."--Adam Grantrun like a bravey sleep like a baby dream like a crazy replace can't with maybe
When "Renaissance runner" (New York Times) Alexi Pappas--Olympic athlete, actress, filmmaker, and writer--was four years old, her mother died by suicide, drastically altering the course of Pappas's life and setting her on a search for female role models. When her father signed his bereaved daughter up for sports teams as a way to keep her busy, female athletes became the first women Pappas looked up to, and her Olympic dream was born. At the same time, Pappas had big creative dreams, too: She wanted to make movies, write, and act. Despite setbacks and hardships, Pappas refused to pick just one lane. She put in a tremendous amount of hard work and wouldn't let anything stand in her way until she achieved all of her dreams, however unrelated they may seem to outsiders. In a single year, 2016, she made her Olympic debut as a distance runner and wrote, directed, and starred in her first feature film. But great highs are often accompanied by deep lows; with joy comes sorrow. In Bravey, Pappas fearlessly and honestly shares her battle with post-Olympic depression and describes how she emerged on the other side as a thriving and self-actualized woman. Unflinching, exuberant, and always entertaining, Bravey showcases Pappas's signature, charming voice as she reflects upon the touchstone moments in her life and the lessons that have powered her career as both an athlete and an artist--foremost among them, how to be brave. Pappas's experiences reveal how we can all overcome hardship, befriend pain, celebrate victory, relish the loyalty found in teammates, and claim joy. In short: how every one of us can become a bravey.

"'Oman Reborn: Balancing Tradition and Modernization' by Linda Pappas Funsch is a well-documented book on the sultanate that traces the Gulf country's history of independence, its legacy of interaction with diverse cultures and enlightened modern leadership. ... The book illustrates how Sultan Qaboos used his discrete foreign policy to defuse tensions between Washington and Tehran after the Iranian government arrested three Americans in different situations." (Hussein Shehadeh, thearabweekly.com, May, 2018)
"Freelance specialist Funsch, who focuses on the Middle East and, particularly, the Sultanate of Oman, presents a well-organized and detailed analysis of Omani history, culture, and contemporary aspects. ... Keeping in mind the author's very positive and sympathetic perspective, readers will glean much significant information and valuable insight into 'one of a few good news stories to emerge from the Middle East.'

(Richard Schmierer, Middle East Policy, Vol. 23 (1), Spring, 2016)
"Pappas-Funsch delightfully provides the reader with an overarching introduction to the country's rich cultural heritage which then sets the grounds for an eloquent explaination of Qaboos's foreign policy ... . By writing this very important book, Pappas-Funsch has indeed succeeded in reaching a larger audience about the uniqueness of Oman within the Arab world and how it truly stands out as one of the few 'good news' stories to emerge from the Middle East in the contemporary era ... ."
