Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Mimi's nurses told us that we had to write a book regarding her stay with us. 'You are doing everything right,' they said. It didn't feel like it at the time! When my husband and I invited my 93-year-old mother to live with us, we had no idea of what was involved, how long she would stay, what her needs would be, or how it would impact the family. From transforming our home to sleepless nights, we were unprepared for the work, or the overwhelming love and healing that we experienced. Living with Mimi explains our family's journey. I also provide practical advise on such topics as how to prepare one's home; questions to ask at doctor appointments; resources for locating and evaluating assisted living residences, in-home care, and visiting nurses; and the benefits of hospice. Armed with this information, one can make a knowledgeable decision whether or not to go down this path. It isn't for everyone. If it is for you, may this book ease your journey so that you can enjoy the blessing that comes from taking care of possibly the hardest and most rewarding houseguest one may ever have.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Normandy to Dachau tells the story of a young man who was drafted to fight during World War II. R.H. Kiley shares that even though it was not uncommon for multiple children from the same family to go overseas to fight, Americans were solidly behind the mission to save the world from Nazi domination. Kiley served in the 283rd Field Artillery Unit, which earned the distinction of being the longest continuously operating field artillery unit in World War II. The 283rd supported infantry advances in northern France, eventually crossing the Rhine River and into Germany. The author was among the first troops to enter Dachau, where he witnessed the horrors of the Holocaust and the joy and relief of liberated surviving prisoners. He also arrived at Berchtesgaden shortly after the departure of the Germans. This narrative is not an accounting of the author's outstanding, heroic feats - although he does share how he successfully captured four German soldiers without a weapon. Rather, it's an attempt to share recollections of everyday experiences over 2 1/2 years as a soldier. Some members of the 283rd were wounded, and some were killed. The survivors were left with vivid memories.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - I have wanted to write a book about the 'business of medicine' for a long time now. 'Why ', you ask. The reason is because I have seen so many doctors give up, switch careers, or sell out to large conglomerates of health care employers because the physicians were not able to succeed on their own. This has been so hard for me to watch. Unfortunately, the business of medicine is not taught in, or part of, medical school curriculums. As such, these poor health care providers just went into the profession blind. They had no idea what to expect. There was no guidance or direction provided during their training. There was just ignorance and naiveté when they came out into the world. They were left to figure it out for themselves and just told to flap their wings and fly.Well, I want to change that. I think it should be. In fact, I think it must be, and I'm on a mission to make it happen. In medical school, there are no business courses about etiquette, people skills, public speaking, finance, accounting, billing, collections, accounts receivable, accounts payable, banking, wealth management, money management, budgeting, investments, economics, business management, human resources, etc. All these courses should be required.My goal is to make this book mandatory reading material on every health care provider's educational curriculum. It will not only teach you how to succeed in the business of medicine, but in the specialty of medicine, as well.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This book is not about the Rich and Famous. It is not about entertainment celebrities, political leaders, sports stars, or military heroes. It is about five ordinary men, who just happened to have the amazing abilities to inspire others and help people succeed through work habits, beliefs, and their experiences. Their stories are inspiring not because these men are famous, but because they are not famous. You probably know people just like them. They could be friends, neighbors, or even co-workers. We are surrounded by ordinary people who make us feel good, who genuinely appreciate our skills, or our knowledge and our friendship, which inspires us to do even more.I have written and published four previous books on various subjects, but my success in doing so was largely due to the influence these five men had on me. Each of them in their own way, added to the richness of these stories as well as my own.All of these men have since passed away, but their legacy should not be lost to time, but rather preserved for others to read about and appreciate. I wish I had written this book 30 years ago, but if I had, I probably would not have appreciated the values or wisdom they gave to me and countless others. I hope their descendants will come across this book and recognize that while their ancestors may have been likeable, they contributed to our society the one extraordinary talent they each possessed the ability to inspire others.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - This short series deals with a number of what are known as the New Testament Epistles. In particular we will begin with the three Epistles of John. John, a disciple of Jesus Christ, was one of the original twelve apostles, and on a personal level, is thought to be the person Jesus knew best. He is the author of no fewer than five books of the New Testament. This amounts to 8.3% of the New and Old Testaments combined and 20% of the books of the New Testament. The books he authored include, The Gospel of John, The First Letter of John, the Second Letter of John, the Third Letter of John, and the Revelation of Jesus Christ. Jude deals with a time that is called the Apostia, the great falling away. During this time many will refuse to listen to sound doctrine and be attracted to false teachers and heresies referenced in 2 Peter 2:1 and 2 Peter 3:3. Every believer should study Jude to understand the tactics of our enemy and stand against them. Dr. Richard Freeman, Vice President of Chosen People Ministries, said, 'I have found Fred Scheeren's Bible study material to be quite thorough as well as extremely insightful. I have used it as a resource myself in preparing Bible studies for group study and for my own personal study of the Bible. I recommend it highly to others.' Steve White, Ph.D., author and International Director of 21C International, said, 'Fred hits a great blend of commentary, historical context, and practical application. The study questions are clear, thought-provoking and relevant. I could easily recommend this for either individual or group study.' Robert T. Mason, former executive at an international firm and in his second career as a pastor said, 'Fred has done it again!! He has a great way of opening up and explaining the Word of God.' This sentiment was echoed by Dr. Dilo Paul, a materials scientist, who said, 'I love these studies as they guide me through finding the answers to questions that arise during Bible study from the Bible itself.'.…
