By Ernestine Williams-Burtley
Life is full of adventures that lead to various changes that often times make us realize how short life really is-The longer we live, it seems we've only lived a short time. As the baby boomers take the leading role in society, many are finding themselves as caregivers to aging parents. Ernestine shares her heartfelt and challenging journey with Alzheimer's disease as her mother's caregiver. Included is some background on the disease and its effect from a caregiver's perspective. Through her journey, she begins making note of the changes her mom faces and the effects of the disease on the entire family. As she writes, she reflects back on the earlier years, growing up as she profiles her mother in a loving way. She tells stories of how her mom loved to sing and write gospel songs; how she loved her family unconditionally, and now a woman who has no awareness of her family who loves her. Ernestine started her journey on December 25, 1997, and although her mom is now in a nursing home, the struggles of a caregiver/daughter go on; each day Ernestine hopes to again hear her mother's voice and to know her mother recognizes her.

El papel de la medicina homeopática es encontrar el remedio que en su patogénesis contenga los síntomas más similares. Este remedio se denomina "simillinum". Al decir "síntoma del enfermo" se incluyen el conjunto de los síntomas: no tan sólo los de la enfermedad, sino también los del enfermo, los que corresponden a su reacción personal frente a la enfermedad. Podemos resumir este concepto del siguiente modo: la homeopatía cura la enfermedad, sino al enfermo y a su enfermedad. El libro ha sido pensado para encontrar rápidamente la descripción de un determinado remedio o lo que se puede hacer en caso contrario, contiene dos partes bien diferenciadas:
-La materia médica: el estudio simplificado de las principales propiedades terapéuticas de los remedios homeopáticos más empleados.
-El léxico terapéutico: donde podrán encontrarse los diferentes remedios indicados en el tratamiento de cada tipo de dolencia. Con la finalidad de ser eminentemente práctico y no confundir al lector, se han escogido los remedios más utilizados y se han destacado las indicaciones terapéuticas más importantes para facilitar la tarea tanto del homeópata como del paciente que buscan una explicación rápida, clara y precisa. El autor, Claude Binet, estudió medicina en París y es autor de varios libros sobre el tema.

Perhaps you've read about the Heart Attack Germ in Reader's Digest. Or you may have seen the story about it on Dateline NBC. But The Heart Attack Germ is the first and only book that reveals the full story behind this astonishing and revolutionary medical breakthrough. A germ named Chlamydia pneumoniae has been identified by medical researchers the world over as the Heart Attack Germ. People infected by this germ are at a significantly increased risk for stroke, heart attack and other cardiovascular problems, including the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Several other common bacteria and viruses have also been associated with an increased risk of stroke and heart attack. All of these germs are contagious and easily transmitted from person to person. In fact, the odds are that you've already been infected by one or more of the germs of cardiovascular disease. The discovery of the Heart Attack Germ has produced improved treatments that, for the first time, attack the underlying cause of cardiovascular trouble. Vividly written and illustrated, The Heart Attack Germ will show you how to dramatically reduce your risk of stroke, heart attack and the symptoms of Alzheimer's: safely, painlessly, inexpensively and without surgery.
