Momma Has MS by Karen Pine Pdf

Multiple Sclerosis is an illness that more people are being diagnosed with. It is a difficult illness to diagnose because each afflicted person has different symptoms. Children naturally want to help the family member feel better, but they don't know how. They are also curious about what Multiple Sclerosis is and what causes it. Because I was diagnosed when my children were married, I wrote this book for my grandsons and all children whose lives are affected by MS. The children will be able to help those diagnosed with MS in very simple ways after reading this book. They will learn that saying positive things, smiling, giving hugs and kisses, and helping when they see a need will be beneficial for the entire family. Fighting Multiple Sclerosis is a full family task, and children should be included. They need to feel like they are making a positive difference in the MS person's life. It's hard enough for the children to see their family members hurt, but when they can alleviate the sadness for a brief moment, they will know they are making a difference. They will know they are so very loved and needed.

How's Your Mom?: What You Really Want to Say When Your Mom Has MS by Michelle Lebs Pdf

Tammy and Chris were only in their forties, but they already had the rest of their lives all planned out. By the time they reached retirement, their kids would be grown, they would be living in their dream home, and they would finally travel around the world together. But after twenty-five years of marriage, just as their dreams were about to come to fruition, Tammy received a devastating diagnosis: she had progressive multiple sclerosis--the rarest and most severe type of MS. Although Tammy was the only one who received a diagnosis, she learned that her MS had a significant impact on her husband and children, too. Her early attempts at "fighting" the progression seemed fruitless as her MS heartlessly stole the precious routines of her family's life. The perplexed family of four was left wondering whether or not they had any control over the villain who seemed determined to shatter everything in its path. This memoir, told from alternating perspectives of Tammy's immediate family, unveils the raw, honest truths behind progressive MS--the kind of MS that doesn't have patients going skydiving and Rocky Mountain climbing. Yet it also presents a touching portrait of true love, demonstrating the lengths that a family will go to support each other in the toughest of times. How's Your Mom? reveals that love really can conquer all things, even those that MS seems intent on destroying.

Raising a Rare Girl by Heather Lanier Pdf

“A remarkable book . . . I found myself thinking that all expectant and new parents should read it.” —Michelle Slater A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice In Raising a Rare Girl, Lanier explores how to defy the tyranny of normal and embrace parenthood as a spiritual practice that breaks us open in the best of ways. Like many women of her generation, when Heather Lanier was expecting her first child she did everything by the book in the hope that she could create a SuperBaby, a supremely healthy human destined for a high-achieving future. But her daughter Fiona challenged all of Lanier’s preconceptions. Born with an ultra-rare syndrome known as Wolf-Hirschhorn, Fiona received a daunting prognosis: she would experience significant developmental delays and might not reach her second birthday. The diagnosis obliterated Lanier’s perfectionist tendencies, along with her most closely held beliefs about certainty, vulnerability, God, and love. With tiny bits of mozzarella cheese, a walker rolled to library story time, a talking iPad app, and a whole lot of pop and reggae, mother and daughter spend their days doing whatever it takes to give Fiona nourishment, movement, and language. Loving Fiona opens Lanier up to new understandings of what it means to be human, what it takes to be a mother, and above all, the aching joy and wonder that come from embracing the unique life of her rare girl.
