1 comments about Endless Journey: A Head-Trauma Victim's Remarkable Rehabilitation.

1. Dr. Janet A. Stumbo's fascinating book is about one woman's search for treatment. Dr. Stumbo-a veterinarian practicing in Australia-was in a car crash that left her partially blind, in great pain and with short-term memory problems. Soon after the crash, her husband divorces her and she must use all her strength and determination to procure the rehabilitation she needs. She is determined there must be some help for her vision (one of her greatest joys was veterinary surgery). Her search leads her to behavioral optometry and she does, in fact, regain much of her sight. The book is extraordinary in detailing her therapies and recovery. Anyone who wants to begin to understand the rehabilitation for someone with a brain injury should read this book.

1 comments about Invincible Spirits: Jonathan's Journey.

1. I started to read the book and was in tears for the 1st couple of chapters. I am the proud grandmother of a Special little boy with Downs called Daniel. He is a gift and the whole family are humbled at being chosen to share his life.
   
   After reading the book for a while I suddenly had one of those ahah moments when I realised I had seen this family so often on my drips between Durban and Johannesburg. I often see a lovely Downs boy and his mother with the missing lower part of her arm - I peep out of the corner of my eye and marvel at how the young boy makes sure that the bags are collected and put on the trolley at the airport.
   
   I hope I can pluck up the courage next time I bump into them and say hello - I know that we always prefer when people come over and chat to us rather than just give us odd looks.
   
   We are very proud of Daniel and will encourage him to do all he wants to do in life. He is only 18 months but is doing so well and we marvel at his every achievement.
   
   Thanks for your Book Mrs Wickens and thanks for sharing your private moments and thoughts - They really do help it all make sense

3 comments about Profiles in Medical History: Volume I.

1. Mr. Bruss, a california licensed clinical laboratory scientist, has authored a 10 page, 10 chapter paperback book about ten important historical figures and their medical histories. In each chapter, the historical significance of the person is followed by; a discription of the symptoms, historic and current prognostic information, related roles for laboratory testing, and comments about possible future significance of the disorder. The book is an entertaining "easy read". If the reader enjoys history and clinical laboratory science, the $12 price is "good value for the money". An expanded version could be a fine text for a general education college course related to history and medicine.



2. "What fun! The 'Chicago Hope' of history. For a physician, this is not just good, it's thrilling! Beginning with imperishable truth, leavening with today's knowledge gives an engaging view of the action of disease in history. Encore! J.Joseph Prendergast,M.D. Endocrinologist President of Endocrine Metabolic Medical Center



3. "An absolutely fascinating account of how the course of history has turned on men's battles with disease. From famous and powerful individuals who fought the scourge of the past and present to mass decimation, it is the careful attention to the personalities involved that makes 'Profiles In Medical History'so rewarding to read."
