Glioblastoma Variations
Glioblastoma Variations: Arias & Other Star Songs are a poem sequence about glioblastoma, a deadly form of brain cancer. These Glioblastoma Variations are structured roughly after J. S. Bach's Goldberg Variations. That is, the sequence begins and ends with an aria, or song, that states a theme, and between them these arias contain 30 variations. Inquiring into the causes and consequences of the disease, the Variations elegize three specific representative victims, friends and family of the poet, and indirectly all others who suffer from brain cancer, both victims, if we want to use that word, and sympathizers. In other words, the poems may console those who suffer from the disease themselves and those who suffer and rejoice in the lives of all who pass under the stars.

The Dressmaker’s Mirror
"Part genetics primer and part memoir, this is a richly compelling read." - Booklist My niece was 36, newly married, and "on top of the world," when she collapsed and died. Her autopsy report caused us to panic-there was something in our blood that could trigger sudden death. As a mother, I prayed for the curse to spare my children. As a geneticist, I plotted to find the killer. Without planning to do so, I became a medical detective. The book tells of the sorrows a mutation caused my family for generations, revealing a history of resilience and hope. As the stories unfold, I weave in discussions about genetic testing, screening, and gene therapy. The aim is to raise awareness of the crucial role of genetic testing in safeguarding personal health and patient care. I believe I became a geneticist at a time when few women pursued this path because I was destined to help understand the family illness and advocate for genetic testing. Experts agree on the value of genetic testing when there is a family history of disease, or if the patient has an illness frequently caused by a mutation. Knowing the disease mutation lets other family members find out if they have it too and need preventive care. The book explains that doctors can order tests with genetic counseling at relatively low cost and how this will help them prescribe preventive actions, make earlier diagnoses, and get better outcomes. The book's genetic discussions also delve into the implications of broad-based genetic screening without a family history. Policymakers are currently considering the benefits and drawbacks of this approach, and I present both sides of this debate. While working on this book I uncovered a family secret hidden for over one hundred years. Family lore had it that a heavy dressmaker's mirror fell on and killed my uncle when he was four. But the death certificate told a different story. The true cause of my uncle's death was heart failure. My grandparents fabricated the dressmaker's mirror accident to protect their surviving children's marriage prospects. Long before the discovery of DNA, my grandparents intuited and feared James Watson's message, "We used to think that our fate was in our stars, but now we know that, in large measure, our fate is in our genes." The book suggests genetic testing and associated medical intervention can yet change our fates.

Deeper Than Blue
In this intimate memoir of her husband's Alzheimer's journey, author Amanda G. lays bare the emotional and psychological impact of a loved one's illness. DEEPER THAN BLUE kicks off where the real struggle begins; before her spouse is formally diagnosed with the dreaded disease. Amanda G. knows that the radically transformed personality of her once amiable husband/lawyer falls outside the range of normal aging. Armed with a degree in Internet sleuthing, the author zeroes in on her husband's declining condition. By the time the medical diagnosis is delivered, Amanda G. is already navigating the rocky road ahead for her family. A cobbled-together care plan allows her husband to be cared for within the confines of their home for several years. The inevitable progression of Alzheimer's symptoms mandates hard decisions. She confiscates the keys to her husband's car after long, hilarious battles where he is the victor. The loss of her husband's physical and financial independence, grates upon the author almost as much as it does upon him. The ultimate crisis, his rapid physical deterioration, precipitates moving her husband into a board and care facility. For the first time in their forty-six-year marriage Amanda G. is forced to live apart from her husband. DEEPER THAN BLUE sizzles with honesty by asking questions that many spouses of Alzheimer's patients skirt or pretend do not exist. Although DEEPER THAN BLUE is not a clinical discussion of Alzheimer's, the author includes many pearls of wisdom (handling hospital bureaucracy, providing nourishment to a loved one with swallowing issues, creating an estate plan before the inevitable crisis hits, taking care of your health during the tedious journey) that will keep you sane during the journey and elevate the spirit of family members wrestling with Alzheimer's disease. The author injects humor and light into stressful, dark situations. Amanda G.'s abiding faith travels with her through the valley of her husband's Alzheimer's and gives her courage to rebuke the fear of hope.
Rethinking Diabetes
An eye-opening investigation into the history of diabetes research and treatment by the award-winning journalist and best-selling author of Why We Get Fat - "[Gary] Taubes's meticulous, science-based work makes him the Bryan Stevenson of nutrition, an early voice in the wilderness for an unorthodox view that is increasingly becoming accepted."--Niel Barsky, The Guardian Before the discovery of insulin, diabetes was treated almost exclusively through diet, from subsistence on meat, to reliance on fats, to repeated fasting and near-starvation regimens. After two centuries of conflicting medical advice, most authorities today believe that those with diabetes can have the same dietary freedom enjoyed by the rest of us, leaving the job of controlling their disease to insulin therapy and other blood-sugar-lowering medications. Rather than embark on "futile" efforts to restrict sugar or carbohydrate intake, people with diabetes can lead a normal life, complete with the occasional ice-cream cake, side of fries, or soda. These guiding principles, however, have been accompanied by an explosive rise in diabetes over the last fifty years, particularly among underserved populations. And the health of those with diabetes is expected to continue to deteriorate inexorably over time, with ever-increasing financial, physical, and psychological burdens. In Rethinking Diabetes, Gary Taubes explores the history underpinning the treatment of diabetes, types 1 and 2, elucidating how decades-old research that is rife with misconceptions has continued to influence the guidance physicians offer--at the expense of their patients' long-term well-being. The result of Taubes's work is a reimagining of diabetes care that argues for a recentering of diet--particularly, fewer carbohydrates and more fat--over a reliance on insulin. Taubes argues critically and passionately that doctors and medical researchers should question the established wisdom that may have enabled the current epidemic of diabetes and obesity, and renew their focus on clinical trials to resolve controversies that are now a century in the making.
The Love Approach to Living With Dementia
Life roles can change so quickly, such as becoming a new parent, resulting in new priorities, responsibilities and commitments. However, when someone you love is diagnosed with a neurocognitive disorder such as Alzheimer's disease or another type of dementia, you may feel you have taken on an unwanted role as a "caregiver." Research has found that many informal "caregivers," such as family members and friends, do not identify with this term and perceive the support and care provided as just part of the responsibility of the relationship. The roles you play in life describe what you do, and your identity is the essence of who you are.This LOVE Approach is for family members and friends supporting someone living with dementia at home and offers a deeper understanding of how a dementia diagnosis affects the person and also how it affects you. Developing self-awareness and self-efficacy skills, identifying strengths and believing in yourself helps you gain confidence to make the best decisions and provide optimal care for your loved one.Recognizing and addressing dementia-related symptoms such as wandering or repetitive storytelling is an attempt to communicate an unmet need such as boredom or loneliness and not a "challenging behavior," fewer conflicts will occur. By practicing how to listen, observe, validate, and engage with your loved one, meaningful relationships can continue and shared joyful experiences are possible.

Facing It
Originally published in 1984 by Gay Sunshine Press, Paul Reed's Facing It is the first American novel to deal with the emerging holocaust that is the AIDS crisis. This edition features a new introduction by Jerry Rosco, author of the biography Glenway Wescott Personally and editor of the Wescott journals Continual Lessons and A Heaven of Words."Reed established himself at the forefront of the literary response to AIDS... Facing It: A Novel of AIDS narrates the emergent realities of the epidemic through its protagonist Andy and his family physician Dr. Walt Branch. Both characters struggle to cope with Andy's mysterious debilitating illness and eventual death from AIDS-related complications . . . With this novel, Reed initiated a writing career that determinedly grappled with the evolving concerns of HIV epidemiology, even as the most personal contours of his private life were simultaneously and gravely impacted by the virus." -Mark John Isola, Encyclopedia of Contemporary LGBTQ Literature of the United States"Facing It is that rare novel - published in 1984 it is one of the first fictional works about HIV/AIDS - that radiates both the fierce energy of dispatches from the front lines and nuanced emotional consideration of what it means to be alive. At times blunt, even brutish about the horrific inequities of the epidemic's early years, Facing It chronicles the everyday details of living in a - personal, social, political, medical - crisis when the very act of writing sustains hope and resembles something like salvation." -Michael Bronski, author of Pulp Friction: Uncovering the Golden Age of Gay Male Pulps, A Queer History of the United States, and co-editor of Invisible History: The Collected Poems of Walta Borawski"Paul Reed's Facing It sounded the first call to the ravages, horrors, and duplicitous national reaction to the beginning of AIDS. An indictment, as well as a mirror of hope, its revelations still compel." -Philip F. Clark, author of The Carnival of Affection"Facing It will help us to face not just AIDS but the random cruelties and rare beauties of this life. Mr. Reed has done us all a good turn by writing this novel." -Rita Mae Brown, author of Rubyfruit Jungle, blurb from the original edition Paul Reed was born in California in 1956 and along with Facing It he was the author of several works of fiction, memoir and nonfiction, including safe-sex erotica under the pen name Max Exander. He died in January 2002 of AIDS-related complications.

Aging or Alzheimer's?
Is it normal aging, Alzheimer's, or another dementia? Two of three Americans will experience cognitive impairment by the age of 70. But is it natural age-related forgetfulness, or the early indication of Alzheimer's Disease or other types of dementia? How worried should older people--or their families and friends--be about their memory loss? And what happens next? Kenneth Frumkin, PhD, MD, recently retired from a 36-year medical career and facing his own age- and memory-related challenges, provides an empathetic and comprehensive guide to answering those questions. Aging or Alzheimer's? explains what is currently known about the challenges to memory and cognition that come with longevity. Dr. Frumkin describes the progression of Alzheimer's Disease and other dementias; discusses when to see a doctor and what to expect from the visit; weighs the pros and cons of available tests, treatments, and research; shares personal and passionate tips for coping with decline; and gives the best ways to preserve cognitive health. There are an average of 15 new Alzheimer's publications per day. While busy practicing doctors often wait for the consensus reviews of new Alzheimer's studies that are published about every 10 years, Dr. Frumkin provides evidence-based, up-to-date guidance from the most current memory research. The result is your complete, modern guide to understanding and managing your--or your loved ones'--memory loss or cognitive decline.

The Healing Call of Cancer
"Fear is the enemy, not cancer" says best-selling author Sue Paulson, a two-time cancer thriver. "The terror of a diagnosis can cause us and our loved ones to panic. "If you get a cancer diagnosis, it's not just happening to you. It's happening to everyone whose lives you touch." Because no one should have to go through cancer alone, this book offers practical, step-by-step support and guidance to assist sufferers and their loved ones. "In hindsight, there were many questions I didn't know to ask and help I needed that I couldn't articulate. Had I only known a bit about what was ahead, I would have been more prepared and less afraid." Sue's latest book adopts a holistic approach as she explores the mind-body-soul connection in the healing process. While the medical community focuses primarily on cancer's physical impact on the body, Sue encourages cancer sufferers to explore their own life and history to resolve whatever has led them to cancer. "Cancer came for a reason," she maintains." Cancer may be here as a tool for you to draw your last breath. Or it could be your wake-up call to propel you out of previous misery and suffering and into the life you've always dreamed of." Sue insists that cancer is not a failure. "We're not to blame. But we are responsible to ourselves and our bodies to discover what this formidable teacher called cancer wants us to know. Whether you are a sufferer or a member of the support team, The Healing Call of Cancer is designed as a resource that's there for you every step of the way.

The Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Myalgic Encephalitis and Long Covid, Third Edition
The third, completely revised and updated, edition of the ultimate guide to energy - how we get it and how we spend it - for all patients with chronic fatigue syndrome, myalgic encephalitis and long COVID. Since the first edition of this book appeared, mainstream medicine has come up with nothing new that will help patients with chronic fatigue despite the recognition of long COVID - symptom-suppressing painkillers and antidepressants remain the mainstay. In the seven years since the second edition was published both new research and new clinical findings have meanwhile thrown increasing weight behind Dr Sarah Myhill's approach that focuses on the body's energy delivery systems and its energy use. In this third edition, Dr Myhill, now supported by expert patient Craig Robinson, has completely revised and updated her practical guidance on how to improve the former with diet, supplements and other lifestyle measures and how to address energy wastage through traditional approaches including methylene blue, DMSO and photodynamic therapy, and how to re-program the immune system with micro-immunotherapy. Following continued harassment by the UK's General Medical Council, Dr Myhill has de-registered and through this third edition we are beneficiaries of the fruits of that change as her focus is evermore on what we as patients can do for ourselves.
Living with Dementia
The collected columns from former reporter and head of CBC current affairs, illuminating his experience following a dementia diagnosis. In 2013 Darce Fardy was diagnosed with dementia. He was eighty-one years old. Fardy did not let the diagnosis get him down. Not only did he accept the situation and the likely consequences; he practically embraced them. As a former journalist, it was natural for him to document his experience. Over the next six years, almost seventy of his columns were published in the Halifax Chronicle Herald, serving as a window on his deteriorating condition. But the columns revealed something else: the extent to which dementia touched other people's lives. Everyone seemed to have a story about a loved one who was dealing with some form of dementia--and readers were grateful for his insights. Fardy kept writing until early 2020, when his ability to piece together a five hundred?word essay was finally out of reach. He died two years later. Here, Fardy's columns have been compiled into a poignant and illuminating collection that serves to both honour him and destigmatize the disease. Published in cooperation with the Alzheimer Society of Nova Scotia, Living with Dementia features forty black-and-white photos, a foreword and several columns by prominent Halifax geriatrician Dr. Kenneth Rockwood, and practical guidance from the Alzheimer Society of Nova Scotia. Royalties from the sale of Living with Dementia will be donated to the Alzheimer Society of Nova Scotia.
Reversing Polycystic Kidney Disease
WITH A FOREWORD FROM DAVE ASPREY, founder of Bulletproof 360, Inc and New York Times bestselling author The practical guide to how to reverse polycystic kidney diseases, usually considered chronic and progressive, through a ketogenic diet and biohacker principles. A unique guide to the strategies developed by Felix Mueller, expert patient, influencer and author, over the past nine years to reverse his own polycystic kidney disease, as well as that of numerous clients and followers. The book shows the simple and easy diet and lifestyle changes that PKD patients - written off as 'incurable' - can make to radically prolong their time to, or even completely stave off, dialysis or transplant, and explains the scientific backgrounds of why this approach works according to emerging, as well as long-established, science. The book includes practical tips, daily routines, recipes, and a whole week meal plan as well as survival strategies for traveling and eating out without sacrificing kidney health in the process. Readers will learn that, contrary to popular belief, having PKD does not mean living in constant nutrient deficiency, but that food abundance can also lead to better health and even achieving the ultimate goal: drastically improving their kidney function and even size. "Felix's story is a vivid illustration of how the principles of biohacking can be tailored to improve even genetic conditions which some people believe to be incurable. By harnessing a state of intermittent ketosis and fasting combined with highly nutritious foods, he has uncovered a profound truth: our genetic destiny is not a script that is set in stone but a narrative that we can rewrite with the right diet, lifestyle and supplementation."--Dave Asprey, author of The New York Times Bestseller The Bulletproof diet
