Dear Dad by George Delmarmo Pdf

This story is about me. In my golden years, I learned about a child I never knew I had. The child was not the result of a torrid, passionate, love affair. I never knew what had happened or that anything did happen. Some fifty years after the event was the first time I even realized that something did happen. The event affected many people’s lives in ways that seem bizarre at best. Living through the events was more unbelievable, but after the deed was done, the question of what to do about it became paramount. The question of what I should do to save my reputation compared to what is legal and not legal got all mixed up. What effect it had on me has to be measured next to the effects it had on others. Like a pebble that is dropped in a pool of water, no one knows for sure where the ripples will spread or what will happen when they mix with other events. The cause and effect of one deed has (in this case) created problems in my lifetime and will also cause problems in other people’s lives for generations to come. There just is no end to the mischief one misguided event will have. In my case I saw the effects on three generations of my family, and I cannot even guess what future effects it will have. After reading the book, contact me and let me hear what you would have done differently.

Psychotherapy With Deaf and Hard of Hearing Persons by Michael A. Harvey Pdf

In this expanded and thoroughly updated second edition, Michael A. Harvey elaborates his pioneering biopsychosocial model of the effective assessment and treatment of deaf and hard-of-hearing clients in individual and family therapy. Taking a broad ecological perspective, he examines the influences of larger networks on the individual and vice versa, and illuminates the overt and covert conflicts among family members, school and vocational rehabilitation personnel, and friends that often exacerbate problems. The spiritual issues relevant to those who have experienced any kind of loss receive special attention in the new edition, as do the daily hurtful exchanges in the lives of the deaf he sums up as "ordinary evil." Throughout the reader-friendly text, theoretical description is balanced with practical advice; points are vividly illustrated with extended verbatim transcripts from actual therapy sessions and with exchanges in the author's question-and-answer column in the journal, Hearing Loss: Self-Help for the Hard of Hearing. Psychotherapy With Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Persons, Second Edition, is essential reading for all mental health professionals who see even occasional clients whose lives have been affected by hearing loss in themselves or in family members.

Nourish the Beast - Formerly Known as "Baba Goya" by Steve Tesich Pdf

Baba Goya is a loudmouth mother who goes through husbands and orphans like the Turkish coffee she makes in a dirty old soup pan. In Queens, she presides over a household comprised of a childish orphan who happens to be a cop, an elderly gentleman who explodes every time somebody calls him "Grandpa," a dying husband, and an errant daughter who cries all night. The husband, Baba's fifth, is already submitting an ad for her sixth. The cop catches a Japanese man stealing cameras and chains him to a radiator, the daughter guiltily confesses she voted for Nixon and runs off, and the husband, who may not die after all, insists they must wait out Watergate for a Democratic president.

Deaf School by Paul Du Noyer Pdf

Liverpool’s dynamic music scene gave the world The Beatles. What city could hope to follow that? But 12 years later, in 1974, lightning nearly struck twice. Deaf School were a band formed in John Lennon’s old art college, rehearsing in the very same rooms. With their chaotic and wildly entertaining brand of rock cabaret, Deaf School were tipped for instant stardom and signed up by Warner Brothers in California. But suddenly, with the world at their feet, Deaf School were swept aside by Britain’s punk rock revolution. “A great band,” said the Sex Pistols’ manager Malcolm McLaren. “But it’s just as bad being too early as too late.” Though their hopes were dashed the band has never surrendered. And 40 years on, Deaf School’s influence is acknowledged by British bands from Madness to Dexy's Midnight Runners. Their reunion shows, still madly glamorous and eccentric, are tribal gatherings for a fanbase that never forgot them. The band’s first full-length biography is written by British music writer Paul Du Noyer, a follower since Deaf School’s early days in Liverpool. “Deaf School are such a delicious secret,” he says. “It’s almost a shame to reveal it.”
