Lyndon’s Fog
"Lyndon's Fog" weaves together an eclectic group of past vignettes with present events which are echoed by many families who encounter Alzheimer's.

Every caregiver will grapple with either living lies or telling lies. A desperate lie is told to try to help the author's father believe the truth that his wife is dead. With a fragile mind, simple tasks like cooking and driving become impossible. Even though they grieve and fight their loss of independence, the care giver also grieves and fights to take on the responsibility of caring for their loved one. Juggling all these balls in life are compared to a memorable raft ride down a raging river. The journey begins with frustration, confusion follows, and nonsense swallows up reality. Filters on speech seem to fail, life values appear to be in flux, losses on every front increase, but joy can be found in the story of living. Recording the tenderness of her father's missed speech on her wedding day because he was thoughtfully driving his own dementia diseased mother-in-law back to the nursing home, embodies the cycle of life's motto-- love equals family and families love. Sweeping up a crawling carpet of white maggots out of the back of a jeep and fishing a wallet out of a smelly outhouse will bring tears and laughter that meld together as you enter this family's encounters. These and more treasured stories are crafted into a beautiful authentic tale of life shared. You will enter the emotional roller coaster and finally grieve when he breathes his last breath and death comes, even like taxes, inescapable; but there is purpose, even in all of this.

Modulation Of Sialidases In Pancreatic Cancer
Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest forms of cancer with a very low survival rate. Sialidases are enzymes that play a key role in cancer progression by cleaving sialic acid residues from glycoproteins and glycolipids. The modulation of sialidases in pancreatic cancer has gained considerable attention as a potential therapeutic target for inhibiting tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis.In recent years, research has focused on understanding the mechanisms of sialidase modulation and its impact on tumor biology. Studies have identified sialylated glycans and tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens as important biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis. Additionally, sialidase modulation has been shown to affect cancer cell signaling pathways, apoptosis, chemoresistance, and immune response.The tumor microenvironment, including extracellular matrix, stromal cells, and immune cells, plays a critical role in pancreatic cancer progression. Sialidase modulation has been shown to impact the tumor microenvironment by influencing the behavior of cancer-associated fibroblasts, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, and angiogenesis.Emerging evidence suggests that sialidase modulation may have significant implications for personalized cancer treatment and precision medicine. Furthermore, the identification of novel therapeutic targets and the development of glycan-targeted therapeutics offer exciting prospects for the development of new and effective treatments for pancreatic cancer.

Putting the patient front and center, holistic therapies can help boost the immune system, which can slow the spread of certain cancers and, in some cases, even enhance the cancer-killing effects of chemotherapy. Herbal medicine and other therapies also offer effective ways of dealing with the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation. Drawing from decades of clinical experience helping patients recover from cancer, Cabrera provides a wealth of safe, well-researched information, including specific herbal formulas, important discussions about dosing and safety, detox protocols, recommendations for nutritional supplements, simple recipes for nourishing meals, and patient case histories that demonstrate the power of the strategies she recommends.

Type-2 Diabetes Case Study
In 2018 I was diagnosed a type-2 Diabetic. I got out a bound notebook and began documenting my situation. My past glucose was above the glucose normal range of 74-100 mg/dL, my HbA1C 11.5%, my weight was 185 lbs. and my height 5 feet 11.5 ins. I was already using Dr Amy LEE's, probiotic BIO-X4. Dr, Lee is a Nutritionist and Weight Management Specialist. A side benefit of her program was my HbA1C dropped to as low as 3.5%. I was monitoring my finger-stick blood glucose levels preBREAKFAST, preLUNCH and preDINNER. On February 15th I started with Dr Marlene Merritt's Blood Glucose Formula (BGF) to see if this probiotic would indeed lower my circulating blood glucose. The preLUNCH and preDINNER began to separate from the preBREAKFAST (nocturnal) glucose values. This glucose change was statistically significant and the preDINNER glucose levels separated statistically faster led me to identify a nocturnal phase and a diurnal phase of Diabetes. I was able to verify and extend the finger-stick data with the LibreLink technology. Now this single Type-2 Case Study needs to be verified with ten (5 female/5 male) patients and extended to nondiabetics and severe diabetic groups for comparison, and a better understanding of Diabetes. Glucose is a universal energy molecule that can be found in every cell in the body, and maintaining its normal levels is critical to good health.

This Isn't Working
"...takes the lid off the difficult career questions we all face, and provides pointed advice for finding healthy, empowering work."-Steve Woodruff, Author, Clarity WinsThe Great Resignation, the Great Reshuffling, and Quiet Quitting-clearly something is not right at work. Rates of stress, anxiety, and depression were skyrocketing before the COVID-19 pandemic. Tied to their smartphones 24/7, many people were overworking, measuring their self-worth and value by how busy they were. They compared their lives to the filtered lives of peers on social media. They worked in corporate cultures that didn't support employees, and they undervalued the importance of their own mental and physical health.During the pandemic's height in 2020, many people were forced to stay home. Some found themselves without a job at all; others had to learn to do their jobs remotely. It was during this "down time" that many people realized that busyness, overworking, overconsumption, avoidance, and numbing weren't helping. In fact, the whole approach was batshit crazy.In This Isn't Working! Evolving the Way We Work to Decrease Stress, Anxiety, and Depression, career transition expert Catherine Altman Morgan explains why we shouldn't be striving to get back to "normal," because normal wasn't all that great. Instead, we need to EVOLVE.Through her company, Point A to Point B Transitions Inc., Catherine has worked with many clients who suffer with physical and mental health issues caused by work-related stress. In this book she offers techniques and strategies to rethink how we live and work and start feeling better almost immediately."I need this book. You might too! If you've felt a bit dented, here's the fix!"-Chris Brogan, Chief of Staff, Appfire.com
Surviving Cancer At Both Ends
Powerful poetry from the killing fields of cancer about the nature of mouth cancer and prostate cancer and how one survivor has survived these diseases for eleven years.Neil Vickers, Lecturer in Literature and Medicine at King's College, University of London: 'Cancer at Both Ends has tremendous value. It is rare to find real poetry on these subjects. This is subtle and powerful verse. Really terrific. I admire the strength of character, the humour and the willingness to embrace the very uncomfortable truth that there is no reason why we should not get cancer. Wonderful poetry.'Michael Lee, 2003 Editor of Poems in the Waiting Room: 'Cancer at Both Ends is a remarkable collection - an impressive, stirring record. Medicine has been classically defined as the study of the progress of disease through the morbid anatomy. Bob Crew's work is a healthy response. It is exceptionally strong and moving with a life-giving touch of humour.Professor Michael Baum, Cancer Surgeon and former Professor of Surgery at Kings College Hospital, Royal Marsden Hospital and University College Hospital. 'Wonderful and deeply moving.'Nicholas Kalavrezos, Head & Neck Cancer and Reconstructive Maxillofacial Surgeon, University College London: 'Bob Crew's poetry is very precise and sweet.'James Poole, BA Natural Sciences (Cambridge): 'It's kind of awesome that the Big C creates opportunities for such savage humour and irony. Bob Crew's humour is not just mischievous, it's contagious. He has also put his finger on a very interesting area of intellectual debate - Complexity Theory. The wonder is not why things go wrong, but that they do not. But why does it take only one molecule going awl, or wrong, to cause big bad cancer?'

Fighting Alzheimer's Disease
Three factors have motivated the author to write this book: his intimate 32 years of experience with Alzheimer's disease (AD) victims, the fact that his research revealed that no single brief document exists to guide persons over 60 in developing effective strategies and measures to significantly delay the onset of AD and the fact that only about two percent of those over 60 years of age have any awareness of the life-destroying threat of Alzheimer's. Therefore, the author has put together this comprehensive guide. Considering the explosive projected increase of AD from the current level of 5.3 million Americans to more than 10 million by 2025, there is a critical need to educate those over 60 about this deadly and enormous threat and get them to adopt the strategies and measures in this book to delay the seemingly inevitable onset of Alzheimer's disease.
