Synopsis Race for a Cure Dying to Know the Truth by : Li Cross

Have you ever wondered why people can take a drug for years, but never seem to get well? Have you wondered why the Cancer Society has come so close to finding a cure and yet they have never found one? If they did, so many institutions and hospitals would go broke from the lack of income from expensive "treatments." What if the drug manufacturer is fudging research data to get more sales? After all, they are in the business of making money not making America healthy.Cancer is "cells gone bad" What creates cancer cells are toxins. Toxins are in your food, deodorant, lotion, soap, actually just about anything you put in or on your body. Our bodies are made to heal themselves. Some foods feed disease (like cancer) some foods fight it. Foods like sugar, white starchy food and processed foods feed cancer. Foods like bright colored vegetables and berries kill cancer.Many researchers have determined: "Today, more than 95% of all chronic disease is caused by food choice, toxic food ingredients, nutritional deficiencies and lack of physical activity and that most every disease is reversible with proper nutrition and simple changes in our lifestyle." The whole reason behind this book is to get people to think. A little thought, and adjustment in lifestyle may save your life. I used to believe "If the FDA approves it, it's safe to eat, right?" Our choice of food can make us sick or make us well! If you continue to use products with toxins in them, you will continue to create or feed cancer cells. We provide a list of those toxins within this book. We have provided you with knowledge so the future of your health can be in your hands.

Synopsis The Last Lecture by : Randy Pausch

A lot of professors give talks titled 'The Last Lecture'. Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave, 'Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams', wasnt about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because time is all you have and you may find one day that you have less than you think). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living. In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humour, inspiration, and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come.

Synopsis Chasing My Cure by : David Fajgenbaum

LOS ANGELES TIMES AND PUBLISHERS WEEKLY BESTSELLER • The powerful memoir of a young doctor and former college athlete diagnosed with a rare disease who spearheaded the search for a cure—and became a champion for a new approach to medical research. “A wonderful and moving chronicle of a doctor’s relentless pursuit, this book serves both patients and physicians in demystifying the science that lies behind medicine.”—Siddhartha Mukherjee, New York Times bestselling author of The Emperor of All Maladies and The Gene David Fajgenbaum, a former Georgetown quarterback, was nicknamed the Beast in medical school, where he was also known for his unmatched mental stamina. But things changed dramatically when he began suffering from inexplicable fatigue. In a matter of weeks, his organs were failing and he was read his last rites. Doctors were baffled by his condition, which they had yet to even diagnose. Floating in and out of consciousness, Fajgenbaum prayed for a second chance, the equivalent of a dramatic play to second the game into overtime. Miraculously, Fajgenbaum survived—only to endure repeated near-death relapses from what would eventually be identified as a form of Castleman disease, an extremely deadly and rare condition that acts like a cross between cancer and an autoimmune disorder. When he relapsed while on the only drug in development and realized that the medical community was unlikely to make progress in time to save his life, Fajgenbaum turned his desperate hope for a cure into concrete action: Between hospitalizations he studied his own charts and tested his own blood samples, looking for clues that could unlock a new treatment. With the help of family, friends, and mentors, he also reached out to other Castleman disease patients and physicians, and eventually came up with an ambitious plan to crowdsource the most promising research questions and recruit world-class researchers to tackle them. Instead of waiting for the scientific stars to align, he would attempt to align them himself. More than five years later and now married to his college sweetheart, Fajgenbaum has seen his hard work pay off: A treatment he identified has induced a tentative remission and his novel approach to collaborative scientific inquiry has become a blueprint for advancing rare disease research. His incredible story demonstrates the potency of hope, and what can happen when the forces of determination, love, family, faith, and serendipity collide. Praise for Chasing My Cure “A page-turning chronicle of living, nearly dying, and discovering what it really means to be invincible in hope.”—Angela Duckworth, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Grit “[A] remarkable memoir . . . Fajgenbaum writes lucidly and movingly . . . Fajgenbaum’s stirring account of his illness will inspire readers.”—Publishers Weekly

Synopsis I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die by : Sarah J. Robinson

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Synopsis Chasing a Dream by : Peggy Harrison Gallimore

Have you ever reminisced about the part of life where you were ending your journey as a senior in high school and becoming a freshman in college? In the 70s and 80s era, the book, Chasing a Dream, life begins anew for seven teenagers who have been friends throughout high school with two of them being friends since birth. Add another teenager whose dream does not include college, but he has definitely established his dream as a professional race car driver, you enter a world of self-discovery with relationships that range from survival, validation, scripted, acceptance, and individuation-assertion all wrapped up within the characters of Chase, Stacey, and Eric (the main characters). As with most graduating seniors who are promising to always stay in touch, so goes the story of these eight with their correspondences sort of being a hit and miss from time to time. Some friends are rarely heard of again while others remain close with communication and build a solid tight relationship that shares moments of joy, endurance, tragedy, and romance. Not all their dreams come true and new dreams emerge. However, some dreams are worth chasing no matter the cost as Chase, Stacey, and Eric set their course for their new life’s adventure.
