Book Description
Time doesn’t heal—love heals When Vonnie Woodrick lost her husband Rob to suicide in 2003, she was faced with a series of decisions. How would she move on? How would she support and raise her three children as a young widow? How would she talk about Rob and honor his memory? These questions had no easy answers, but Vonnie found herself longing for one thing in particular: understanding. The stigma of mental illness loomed large over Rob’s death and made healing difficult. But Vonnie found the common assumptions surrounding suicide to be false. Rob was not “crazy.” He did not choose to take his own life. He was in agony and only wanted the pain to end. His death was a direct result of his mental illness. Why didn’t more people understand this? Over a decade later, Vonnie and her children created the nonprofit organization i understand to help others enduring this same grief and loneliness. Since its founding in 2014, i understand has become a haven of compassionate comfort and a powerful voice in the movement to change the way we talk about suicide so that it can be seen for what it truly is: a terminal effect of mental illness, rather than a deliberate choice. This is the story of how love transformed Vonnie’s brokenness into hope—not only for herself and her family, but for anyone struggling to emerge from the darkness of suicide.

Book Description
Come with Beamer and his best friend Kyle as they learn about aphasia from experts with years of experience. Join them as they learn what aphasia is, and how to help their dear friend who has just been diagnosed. This endearing story of friendship will encourage you to communicate with someone who has aphasia. You will learn that you really can make a difference. “I am happy to recommend this book for children and even adults to learn about aphasia. It is clear, understandable, and has very memorable illustrations, including a loveable dog. The book is highly educational for children, adolescents, and adults, and it is amusing and moving even for professionals who deal with aphasia. I recommend this book to one and all.” Howard S. Kirshner, MD Professor and Vice Chair, Department of Neurology Vanderbilt University Medical Center “This is an excellent book that summarizes aphasia for young children. It teaches the children, through the eyes of a dog who lives with a child, to understand that aphasia occurs when people cannot connect their ideas to words after a stroke. This is caused due to disconnection and damage of brain cells. The book explains how once the brain cells are damaged, a new team of brain cells has to learn to train and to be good at language function. That training can be done through aphasia therapy. The book highlights the importance of aphasia therapy as well as socializing and talking with people daily to improve their communication skills. The message in the book is clear and provides an optimistic yet accurate view of aphasia.” Swathi Kiran, Ph.D., CCC-SLP Professor & Doctoral Program Coordinator, Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences, Associate Dean for Research, Sargent College of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, Boston University 635 Commonwealth Avenue Boston, MA 02215 “Now I Understand Aphasia” is a heart-warming depiction of those living with Aphasia. This book teaches us about the brain and its incredible ability to adapt. Kyle’s latest adventure in Tell Me Town allows us to experience Mrs. Lee’s journey from diagnosis to isolation, from support to acceptance. It reminds us of the important role we can all play in the lives of our neighbors, friends and family who struggle to communicate.” Capt. Patrick Horan U.S. Army Retired WIA, TBI, GSW Wife, Patty Horan “I always found it hard to explain to my friends why my dad could not communicate like he used to, but that he was still just as smart and capable. I felt an overwhelming sense of relief from reading this story as it shares challenges and proper communication methods that should be used when interacting with people that have aphasia. I love how Cindy Chambers uses her platform to bring awareness to aphasia.” Delaney Tsacoumis daughter of a gentleman with Aphasia—Ashburn, Virginia

Not only will they learn how to interpret others, perhaps they can learn how to better communicate their thoughts and ideas (Elmer L. Towns, cofounder, Liberty University). About the Book Have you ever wondered what was going on inside a person without asking? This book will help you to understand how recognize nonverbal communication, establish baseline behavior, and implement biblical mandates to help Gods people become all He desires. It will also allow you to connect with people in a significant way which will lead to long lasting relationships.

ye yathâ mâṁ prapadyantetâṁs tathaiva bhajâmy aham, mama vartmânuvartantemanuṣyâḥ pârtha sarvaúaḥ “As all surrender unto Me, I reward them accordingly. Everyone follows Mypath in all respects, O son of Pṛthâ." (Lord Krishna) "None knows the real inwardness of my Baba; some said he was a Yogi, a sensualist, a wise man, some a hypocrite, some called him Brahman or God. (But) Baba's state is- Siddha Avasta. Each finds in him what he thinks him to be". Poojya Narasimha Swamiji continues: “Let us pray at the feet of Sai Baba, the incarnation of all gods and protector of all, to show mercy on us, and increase our devotion towards him”.

Book Description
Jesus said: “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds out of the Mouth of God” (Mat. 4:4). The Word of God is, pure and simple, the single most important thing on the face of the Earth. As someone has rightly said: • Much Bible, much Freedom! • A little Bible, a little Freedom! • No Bible, no Freedom! In his book, “Brother Swaggart, How Do I Understand the Bible?”, Brother Swaggart has tried his best to address every major Doctrine given to us in the Word of God. This is material that is necessary for every Believer to know and understand. Hopefully, we have addressed these great subjects in the Word of God in such a way to make it simple and easy to comprehend. The following are some of the subjects addressed: • The Doctrine Of The Bible • The Doctrine Of Grace • The Doctrine Of “Justification By Faith” • The Doctrine Of Our Lord Jesus Christ • The Doctrine Of Satan • The Doctrine Of Sin • The Doctrine Of The Baptism With The Holy Spirit
