BRENDA COFFEE HAD IT ALL: A husband who adored her, a stepson who fulfilled her desires to have a child, a successful career and a new home. Breast cancer was not a part of her plan. In this practical and often inspirational book, Brenda Coffee shares candid and potentially life-saving information, from point of diagnosis to resuming your life after breast cancer. In her brutally honest and disarmingly candid manner, Brenda offers emotional support and frank information about subjects patients, caregivers and doctors may not be comfortable discussing: Everything from constipation to sex, plus seemingly simple things like the dangers posed by flossing teeth and cutting cuticles that even the best doctors may fail to mention. Cancer is scary, emotionally debilitating and requires resources a patient and their family never dreamed of needing. The Breast Cancer Sisterhood represents one sister reaching out to help and empower another by giving them the gift of Survivorship.
Brenda Coffee pulls no punches when talking to breast cancer husbands. No subject is off limits, and she keeps her message short and to the point. In her brutally honest and disarmingly candid manner, Brenda offers emotional support and frank information about subjects patients, caregivers and doctors may not be comfortable discussing. As a breast cancer family, Brenda and her husband understand that caregiving does not come naturally to most men. Breast cancer affects the whole family. Even with world-class care, much is quickly demanded of patients and caregivers. Add to that the high percentage of husbands who leave their wives after they are diagnosed, perhaps because husbands do not know what to do, or how to feel, and countless families are torn apart at a time when they need one another most. With few books directed at helping husbands and caregivers, The Breast Cancer Caregiver: Husbands & Heroes, offers frank discussions ranging from point of diagnosis to sex and/or lack thereof, to resuming your life when treatment is over.

From its earliest days to the present, the onscreen image of the librarian has remained largely the same. A silent 1921 film set the precedent for two female librarian characters: a dowdy spinster wears glasses and a bun hairstyle, and an attractive young woman is overworked and underpaid. Silent films, however, employed a variety of characteristics for librarians, showed them at work on many different tasks, and featured them in a range of dramatic, romantic, and comedic situations. The sound era (during which librarians appeared in more than 200 films) frequently exaggerated these characteristics and situations, strongly influencing the general image of librarians. This chronologically arranged work analyzes the stereotypical image of librarians, male and female, in primarily American and British motion pictures from the silent era to the 21st century. The work briefly describes each film, offering some critical commentary, and then examines its librarian, considering every aspect of the total character from socio-economic conditions and motivations for leaving or not leaving the library, to personal attributes (such as clothing, hair, and age) and entanglements with the opposite sex, to commonly used props, plot situations and lines ("Shush!"). The work comments on whether librarians and library work are depicted accurately and analyzes the development of the public's image of a librarian. The accompanying filmography lists librarian characters and notes stereotypes such as buns and eyeglasses. With bibliography and index.

Between Charnwood and the Chevin is a snapshot of the time between post-War austerity and the start of the Swinging Sixties, a time of change, when the relative equality of the War years was being hastily shovelled back under the nice new fitted carpets. The developing suburb of Derby, where the author grew up, is described as ‘an uneasy cross between The Stepford Wives and Royston Vasey.’ Her family was ‘ordinary enough’ but could still boast a silent movie actress, a world famous philosopher, several strange family disappearances, a lot of railway folk and involvement in two civil wars. Ancestors had come from the flat lands of Lincolnshire, and others from the far south of Staffordshire, in search of work, settling in Derbyshire and Derby itself, where they stayed and flourished and which this books evokes with such affection. The author’s account of her childhood and early teens is filled with warmth and humour as she occasionally looks back In Anger, but more often in laughter. It was the time of Angry Young Men and just slightly Stroppy Young Women.
The little cottage stood out against a bleak skyline, forlorn, empty, neglected and overgrown. After a three-year search, could it be just what a retired English couple were looking for as a holiday home of their own?

The couple soon found themselves deeply engrossed in their dream project and discovering the full ramifications of owning a rural property deep in the land of wine and haute cuisine.

In her search for love, a young girl finally finds what she is looking for, but the things that she went through to find love proved to be almost too costly as her life almost came to an end. "It Started At The Church" is the story of a young girl who wants to be loved and has fallen prey to an older man, who is seemingly a harmless good Christian brother. She finds herself in love and in trouble in an intriguing relationship of messed up religion, sex, drugs, alcohol and domestic violence at the age of seventeen years old.
