Book Description
Beginnings are scary; endings are usually sad. Fortunately, it is the middle that counts the most. I learned on August 4th of 2013 to give hope a chance for an ending to a terrifying experience. At age 37, my older son, Brad, suffered a catastrophic stroke. Brad was as fit as a man could possibly be, preparing for a training run in anticipation of the New York City Marathon. While he waited for his wife to return from the gym so he could start his run, he began to experience unfamiliar and overwhelming symptoms. Knowing something was wrong, he called his wife, Jessica, and told her to come immediately. Jessica returned home to find Brad on the kitchen floor. An ambulance whisked Brad to the local hospital as he lost consciousness. Nobody knew what to expect when Brad was wheeled into the hospital and switched from the stretcher onto a gurney. There lay what was obviously once a strong and vital man with lean musculature and a tanned body derived from the time spent outside running, close to death. That day, a journey began for Brad and his friends and family. Learning of the cause, a ruptured AVM, or arteriovenous malformation, in Brad's brain that he had likely been born with. Putting faith in brilliant and kind medical providers, like a young neurosurgeon, Avinash Mohan, who saved Brad's life that day, various therapists at in-patient and outpatient rehabilitation centers who helped Brad recover, and Dr. Howard Riina and his team at NYU, who would later obliterate the AVM for good. Summoning patience, strength, and advocacy to push Brad to as full of a recovery as possible, back to independence, work, and enjoyment of his life. As of the end of 2020, Brad is fit and the embodiment of what he used to be. He continues to have a weak left arm and a slight limp, but he is back at work full time and enjoying his life with friends and family, especially his two young sons. The brain is our internal force that affects decision making. Brad made a decision throughout his treatment and healing process to return to health and succeed with everything he had begun to do before fate struck. The beginning was scary, the middle, uncertain, and we feared a sad ending. But the lessons learned were valuable, and life changing, and will carry into the future for Brad and our family toward all of the possibilities we are open to enjoy as a family.

Book Description
“Take Glee, toss it in Lincoln Center, shake out the bizarre stereotypes and you get Take a Bow . . . one page turner that has us yearning for an encore.” —MTV’s Hollywood Crush From the award-winning author of Prom & Prejudice and Past Perfect Life comes a story of all the drama and comedy of four friends who grow into themselves at a performing arts high school. Emme, Sophie, Ethan, and Carter are getting ready for their Senior Showcase recital, where the pressure is on to appeal to colleges, dance academies, and professionals in show business. For Sophie, a singer, it’s been great to be friends with Emme, who composes songs for her, and to date Carter, soap opera heartthrob who gets plenty of press coverage. Emme and Ethan have been in a band together through all four years of school, but wonder if they could be more than just friends and bandmates. Carter has been acting since he was a baby, and isn’t sure how to admit that he’d rather paint than perform. The Senior Showcase is going to make or break each of the four, in a funny, touching, spectacular finale that only Elizabeth Eulberg could perform. “This fresh, fun, fabulous read will have you cheering for new beginnings. Five shiny gold stars!” —Susane Colasanti, bestselling author of the City Love series “The cutthroat competitiveness is balanced by quiet, thoughtful moments of soul-searching regarding stardom, the creative process, and doing and sharing what they love. Readers who love seeing underdogs come out ahead will be delighted with the conclusion.” —Publishers Weekly “Realistic dialogue and a healthy dose of teen angst keep the pages turning.” —Kirkus Reviews

Book Description
In February 2005, Edwyn Collins suffered two devastating brain haemorrhages. He should have died. Doctors advised that if he did survive, there would be little of him left. If that wasn't enough, he went on to contract MRSA as a result of an operation to his skull and spent six months in hospital. Initially, Edwyn couldn't speak, read, write, walk, sit up or feed himself. He had lost all movement in his right side and was suffering from aphasia - an inability to use or understand language. When he initially recovered consciousness the only words he could say were 'Grace', 'Maxwell', 'yes' and 'no'. But with the help of his partner Grace and their son Will, Edwyn fought back. Slowly, and with monumental effort, he began to teach his brain to read and speak all over again - with some areas of his mind it was if he had been a slate wiped utterly clean. Through a long and arduous road of therapy he began to re-inhabit his body until he could walk again. Grace's story is an intimate and inspiring account of what you do to survive when your husband is all but taken away without warning by a stroke.
