I Forgot to Remember by Su Meck,Daniel de Visé Pdf

"Just twenty-two years old, Su Meck was already married and the mother of two children in 1988 when a ceiling fan in the kitchen of her home fell from its mounting and struck her in the head. She survived the life-threatening swelling in her brain that resulted from the accident, but when she regained consciousness in the hospital the next day, she didn't know her own name. She didn't recognize a single family member or friend, she couldn't read or write or brush her teeth or use a fork--and she didn't have even a scrap of memory from her life up to that point. The fiercely independent and outspoken young woman she had been vanished completely. Most patients who suffer amnesia as a result of a head injury eventually regain their memories, but Su never did. After three weeks in the hospital she was sent back out into a world about which she knew nothing: What did it mean to be someone's wife? To be a mother? How did everyone around her seem to know what they were supposed to do or say at any given moment? Adrift in the chaos of mental data that most of us think of as everyday life, Su became an adept mimic, fashioning a self and a life out of careful observation and ironclad routine. She had no dreams for herself, no plans outside the ever-burgeoning daily to-do list of a stay-at-home mom. The Meck family left Texas to start over in Maryland, and told almost no one in their new life about Su's accident. Nearly twenty years would pass before Su understood the full extent of the losses she and her family suffered as a result of her injury. As a series of personally devastating events shattered the "normal" life she had worked so hard to build, Su realized that she would have to grow up all over again, and finally take control of the strange second life she had awoken into"--

What I Forgot to Remember by Carl Reiner Pdf

It's finally here - the last installment of the Carl Reiner Remember Trilogy (which is not to say he won't continue to remember). In 2012, Carl wrote his hilarious and heartwarming memoir, "I Remember Me," chronicling ninety years of living and laughing, with twelve Emmys and a Grammy to attest to his esteemed career in show business. Over the next two years, so many more stories continued to flood Carl's memory that he felt compelled to follow up with the equally rich and funny, "I Just Remembered." In this latest work, "What I Forgot To Remember," Carl has written a book that goes beyond the scope of mere life and showbiz memories. To be sure, there are, incredibly, a wealth of new memories included here: the day he and Mary Tyler Moore acted as sex coaches in the mating of their dogs; sharing stories with Milton Berle about each of their unique encounters with silent film star Pola Negri; his quest to be included in the Guinness Book of World Records along with his old friend Betty White; and more with a broad spectrum of celebrities spanning decades such as Pete Seeger, Tyrone Power, Eva Marie Saint and Conan O'Brien, to name just a few.The bonus in "What I Forgot To Remember" is the inclusion of never before documented "historical" events and characters, filtered through (or possibly created by, who can know?) the brain cells of Carl Reiner; for instance, the history of the straight pin, "Literature's Most Ignored And Important Commodity." Or Carl's world-altering invention of the highly-acclaimed "Improvenator." Or the touching story of his mother's life. And for good measure, writer's advice from a skilled wordsmith in "Chews Yore Homonyms Well, As Awl Grate Righters Dew."So enjoy. Whether it happened in actuality or in the fertile mind of Carl Reiner, you will be equally entertained.

There's Something I Forgot To Tell You by Dawn Davis Pdf

As the summer of 1999 draws to a close, Charlotte and Henry are coming to terms with a week-long Tower Room adventure that had cast them back sixty years, to a Toronto poised on the brink of war, ostensibly to resolve the childhood trauma of Gwendolyn MacFarlane. Except nothing was resolved, only witnessed. In fact, before returning to their own time, Charlotte herself took part in the very events that would shape, in some small way, the flawed woman Gwendolyn grew up to be. Now the two friends are unexpectedly offered the opportunity to embark on a second trip – this one physical rather than temporal – accompanying Gwendolyn to London, England, where she will reconnect with Sarah, a former tutor and actress, who left Toronto with Gwendolyn’s older brother Charlie when he went overseas to join the RAF. There Gwendolyn will have the long-severed threads of her unhappy childhood within reach and be confronted with difficult truths about herself and the life she has lived. The question is whether she will recognize resolution for what it is and be able to stitch the torn aspects of her life back together again.
