THIS BOOK IS INCOMPLETE! I WILL WORK ON NEW CHAPTER WHENEVER I CAN!
Isabel had always known Liam, well, at least it seem that way. This story follows Isabel through her life told in past, present, and future (all of which include Liam). This is a story of love, life, and finding out who you really are.
A woman clings to the life her paralyzed husband has left, cherishing every moment with him until goodbye.
Cancer is known in the medical world like Mike Tyson once was in the boxing world. Do you remember Buster Douglas? He knocked Mike Tyson on his ass and took the belt! Don't give up hope, believe and always fight!
Catherine Armstrong had been battling her cancer for at least a year now, but a hope had come. her cousin kara manley wanted her to visit. she was so happy. but with her cancer, she didnt know if she would survive the flight. when she gets there she is greeted by kara brother-in-law cameron. he seems very interested in catherine but is trapped in a love for his sister-in-law that never ended. could she win his love?
Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Penny, Penny Hopkins. I believe my parents chose that name because that's just about how much I was worth to them. Look, the bottom line is this, I'm about to tell you my story, but I want you to have a clear understanding as to how cynical life has forced me to become. I trust no one. In my twenty-four years on this God forsaken planet, I have come to learn the hard way that everyone is motivated by their own self-interest.
And now, just like the devout atheist at death's door, questioning, perhaps even hoping God exist, I find myself in a similar conundrum regarding love. I was so sure that I would be too clever to fall into such an absurd emotion. I built the walls so high, and so thick I was absolutely certain they were impenetrable.
But now, due to unforeseen circumstances my icy heart has began to melt. I had a five-year plan, this was definitely not in it. Everything was all figured out, my life was exactly how I wanted it to be, but then suddenly life throws that unexpected curve ball.
*This is my first book I've ever written. Comments are welcomed!*
Sleepovers. Dating. Boyfriends. Prom. Graduation. Sam and her best friend Lily were supposed to do all these things together. But they can't. Why? Because Lily died.
When Lily passes away, Sam is lost. She doesn't know how to live without her best friend. Lily helped Sam through all the screwed up things in her life. Especially when her dad died of cancer and her mom became an alcoholic. Sam even considers suicide so she can be with Lily. When she tries to attempt it, however, she meets Logan. Will he help her get through this? Or will Sam go through with her plan?
A Stone on the Highway of Life
Beginning with events that fired her passion on the bleak, mafia-controlled streets of post-communist Russia, Mission to Teach: The Life and Legacy of a Revolutionary Educator recounts the incredible journey of Dr. Jhumki Basu.
Mission to Teach chronicles the brutal murder of her dearest mentor and onset of breast cancer at age 24, to her founding of a public school in an embattled New York borough where she forged an inclusive teaching model that dramatically improved completion rates, to a unique professorship at New York University and untimely death and continuing legacy.
Narrated by Jhumki’s father, Dipak Basu, a writer and humanitarian, Mission to Teach is аbout:
• An enquiry into the public education system, especially as pertains to science
• A manifesto in favor of highly rational yet impassioned living
• The all-encompassing strength of family and friends and the investment in bonds that endure
• A breathless sense of the pace of one’s life; how it should be, how much one can do when fully alive, and how much one can leave behind
“I am among those who feel genuinely blessed to have known her.” - Dr. Condoleezza Rice, Former U.S. Secretary of State
“Brave and beautifully crafted, this riveting book … will leave you both mesmerized and inspired.” - John Moir, award-winning author of Return of the Condor
