Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - THE LAST GOODBYEby D. C. ChambersThe Last Goodbye shows a complex relationship between twenty-five-year-old Sonny Noir, a gay man feeling beaten by the system, and forty-two-year-old Jacqueline Svenson Skylar, a newly transplanted wealthy New York socialite who recently moved to Chicago carrying a lifetime of unhappiness on her shoulders. The Last Goodbye opens with a riveting quadruple homicide at the Miami International Airport on February 13, 1981, which the news media quickly labeled as the Friday the 13th Massacre at MIA. It circles back in time with Sonny telling his life story from his teen years to the day he and Jacqueline witness the unfolding scene at MIA. He searches to find a balance between his love life as a gay man, desperately tries to understand the mounting complications of his friendship with a straight woman whose life has fallen apart, and the struggles of social injustice against the lesbian and gay community he encounters along the way. Through all his ups and downs, he fights to stay true to his own identity. He s not exclusive to surrounding himself with men. He also cherishes the comfort of women as friends. Sonny and Jacqueline find a connection within the first few minutes of meeting while attending The Oak Park School of Hairstyling, even though they come from opposite ends of society and the money spectrum. Sonny is driven and worked hard to achieve a great education to pull himself up from his lower middle-class roots. But after five years in his computer career, he became disheartened and began to lose hope in the American Dream. He encounters many disappointments in his life, but he s a fighter. Sonny and Jacqueline s lives are filled with never-ending trials and tribulations, alcoholism, and cheating. It leaves you asking the question many times over Why can t they part and go their separate ways leading up to the realization that saying goodbye may be their only way to survive.…

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Designing Your Own Unique and Dazzling LifeThe first experience is heart-pounding exhilaration.With humility, I wanted to bear witness to how interesting, fulfilling, and wonderfully exciting life can be when you live with the belief of the power of positive force. Regardless of the nature of one's work or education, people strive to achieve their 'creative best' output. As a result, one can enjoy the sweet memory of dynamic stories of someone saving a person's life or rescuing a family or even a nation. I can easily imagine how rewarding it would be for a doctor to apply his or her own creative craft to save a person's life despite a 1 percent chance of success.I am reminded over and over again that the secret to happiness is confronting and overcoming adversities even where creative best efforts did not appear adequate. The first experience is heart-pounding electricity. My memories of those first experiences where I took the challenge without cowering are still fresh in my mind. What followed those first experiences energized and excited me as I looked forward to the fruits of my labor.I also want to share my personal realization of unique and dazzling experiences of creative best efforts not only with my peer patent attorneys but also with all other professionals, business people, and my good neighbors on this planet.(from prologue). …

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - This book takes the facts about Dr. John H. Holliday and breathes life back into Doc himself. The author has lived through many of the same most crucial moments as Doc; in fact, it is a name that his patients called him and still do. He is, like Doc, a Catholic. It is singularly amusing that they both have so many, many things in common, except that Pat stinks at poker most of the time.This is a very unique book. There has never been a book that tells the tale of Doc Holliday from Doc's side as consistently as this, knowing the disease intimately and living with an almost identical set of symptoms. He has a chronic cough at times so severe that is results in severe pain in his intercostal (chest muscles) that lasts for three days. Making it hard to breathe, move, or even bear down. Coughing or sneezing doubles him over. At times he coughs up blood. He is often hypoxic and unsteady on his legs, he cannot walk without a cane due to dizziness. All this makes his appetite poor. He at times may be dizzy enough to fall down with the room spinning and unable to move for 20 minutes to two hours.The facts were gathered for over forty-seven years of research, off and on. So it truly is a fictional book, perhaps more true to facts than a nonfictional one.…
