Eldercare 101 : Mary Jo Saavedra
Eldercare 101: A Practical Guide to Later Life Planning, Care, and Wellbeing
The Silver Tsunami is upon us as elder care and crisis management reaches a tipping point with the graying of America. By 2020, 54 million people in the U.S. will be over the age of 65; by 2030, that number will top 80 million.
Feeling the squeeze of multi-generational home demands, children of aging parents are struggling to learn innovative eldercare management strategies and often find themselves overwhelmed by the many facets of caregiving.
Eldercare 101 is the answer to making order from chaos. As a guide covering all aspects of aging and end-of-life in one place, caregivers will no longer spend endless nights trying to decode the Internet trail–confused, uncertain, and fearful of what they’re missing.
Whether they are proactively planning ahead or need to have fast answers, this comprehensive, technology-rich resource presents steppingstones for the Sandwich Generation as they navigate caring for aging parents, grandparents, friends, and other family members.
Eldercare 101 is a well-researched, organized, easy-to-understand guide for families desperately in need of help as they care for their aging loved ones. The book is organized into “6 pillars of aging wellbeing”: legal, financial, living environment, social, medical, and spiritual. Each pillar is explored by an expert and offers best practices and tips for evaluating choices, making decisions, and living well wherever the road might lead.

The Forgotten Papers : Jeff Harris
The Forgotten Papers
This is a long-lost masterpiece of the East Village, New York. It goes way back. It should not be confused with a regular book.
There is no plot or running narrative, but even so, it might be the greatest book ever written about the insane asylum that is New York City. It crosses genre lines of fiction, non-fiction and poetry, and is redemptive in some way that is nearly inexplicable.
Wash your troubles away with “The Forgotten Papers” and get one good laugh per page—guaranteed—to boot!
Review by Stewart Allen, author of “The Devil’s Cup”:
I’m giving this five stars because I love Henry Miller’s Tropic of Cancer, which is the closest book i can think of to compare this to. Like Tropic, Forgotten is a loosely bound collection of musings and stories from the writer’s ramshackle life; some of it very funny, some sad, some filthy. It’s a kind of New York equivalent to Miller’s Paris, and as such less glamorous (perhaps) and darker but Harris’s humor and whimsical touch lighten this up.
Review By Faridah Nassozi :
The Forgotten Papers by Jeff Harris (from The Lefty Jones Band) is a collection of a little bit of everything – short stories, poems, and articles, all beautifully written. Some read like riddles, some make political statements, some tackle social issues, some are simply inspirational while others are just hilarious. You will go from a hilarious story about a canceled wedding to one about the need for the GOP to work on its public perception, to a poem, and then to another totally random story. The writings are all very brief with many of them less than half a page long, and yet each tells a complete story with actual depth and lots of humor. You will find in there different genres and different topics, but it all blends into an exciting and very captivating read. The beauty of this book is that you can put it down any time and pick it up whenever. You can even start reading from almost any page since chances are that whatever page you land on, you will be starting a new story.

Possessed : Cordelia Lee
Possessed: From Darkness to Light
My personal memoir as a survivor of black magic and demonic possession, on top of other life challenges like troubled childhood, molests, rape attempt, anorexia, unfulfilled maternal instinct, failing marriage, and depression
This is the only personal memoir in the market of a real person who came out triumphant, positive and healed after a harrowing experience as a black magic victim and that of demonic possession.
Cordelia Lee is no stranger to suffering and painful memories. A troubled childhood, molests, rape attempt, black magic, anorexia, unfulfilled maternal instinct, failing marriage eventually led to depression and isolation. But Cordelia’s problems were not only physical and mental; spiritual forces added to her agony. Things she used to think were illogical and nonexistent.
Initially, Cordelia’s encounters with the supernatural were benign. A spontaneous kundalini awakening enlightened her to the forces that surround us, and she delved into the invisible world of vibrations and energies. But it wasn’t long before ghosts began to torment her.
Cordelia couldn’t give up on her well-being after coming so far. She knew healing was possible, so long as she perseveres. But the ghostly attacks intensified to the point of possession—not by one demon but by many.
Cordelia would need to explore all her options, both earthly and spiritual in order to finally find freedom.

In the distant future…
Alice Watkins is history.
Time’s attention must have been elsewhere the moment old, grey, unsophisticated Alice Watkins died in her armchair a few days before her birthday in November 2016.
It still wasn’t minding what it was doing on Saturn Station in the year 2513.
Dr Jim Grossmith, one of the most eminent scientists of the age has devoted his career to The Sleeping Beauty Phenomenon, guarding the beautiful, red-haired young woman who sleeps peacefully, in a mysterious sarcophagus, her life perfectly suspended, her body preserved in a strange fluid. The woman, cocooned in her protective shell has defied scientific analysis for almost four hundred years.
History recorded little, only that she is Dr Alexis Langley, a noted scientist of her time.
When the sarcophagus opens and vanishes without a trace, leaving the young woman in his care, Jim Grossmith eagerly awaits the day when she can tell him the manner of her preservation. A strange science, lost in the annals of the past? Alien technology?
But as he learns her story, Jim Grossmith finds himself faced with an even deeper mystery. He is certain the physical form of Dr Alexis Langley emerged from the sarcophagus, but as for anything else…
