Brandon Musgrave should know. While in medical school, he endured many of these grueling shifts, as have countless other physicians in training. 'Hour 30' is a gripping memoir shedding new light on the life of a medical student. From insane work hours to dramatic patient encounters, nothing is censored as the reader is taken through all four years of medical training. Although sometimes graphic in nature, the reader will come away with a new outlook on what really goes on in today's hospitals and medical training programs. This book highlights the remarkable transformation of a novice student into a physician and gives a new take on the doctor-patient relationship. 'Hour 30' is a raw, hardcore memoir written with a positive spin as the author learned to deal with death and dying to realize the calling of his life.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePage Count: 210\u003cbr\u003eTrim Size: 5.5 x 8.5\u003cbr\u003ePublish Date: June 3, 2012\u003cbr\u003eImprint: Sunbury Press\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Medical\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brandon Musgrave","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":32912422273117,"sku":"9781620060643","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0294\/8484\/3101\/products\/Hour30.jpg?v=1603217480"},{"product_id":"nirmal-joshi-five-drops-o214-405-81-manual","title":"Five Drops of Estrogen","description":"by \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sunbury-press-books.myshopify.com\/collections\/nirmal-joshi\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eNirmal Joshi\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA man's tribute to womanhood and the undying power of humility, selflessness and sacrifice\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan color=\"#000000\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Bookman Old Style, serif\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFive Drops of Estrogen\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003edescribes the lives of five extraordinary women across three generations, cultures and continents. When remarkable accomplishments of women are described in contemporary times, the stories are often set in the workplace; perhaps how women have become CEOs of companies or acquired power and fame, how they have made it in a “man’s world” against heavy odds, or how they may have done extraordinary things in general. All these accomplishments are commendable. However, the five women described in this book are different. Two of them never even set foot in the workplace, one primarily spent time as a homemaker, and the remaining two straddled the workplace and home and excelled in both. All of them took on the challenges of large families and the inherently “dirty” and often tangled complexities that come with it---and excelled. They were humble and gave unconditionally. Their selfless lives inspired. In two instances they had a profound influence on the generation after them; in the others, they will likely do the same.

A murder, an adoption, new friends, a paralyzing accident, teenage pregnancy, homelessness, and the haunting echoes of years of abuse come together in the story that follows a young girl and her friends discovering that, even against the odds, nothing is ever in vain. Courtney Frey's story, based on the truth of her own childhood and young adult life, demonstrates that finding love starts with purpose. The author conveys through her own character her search for that purpose, as well as the desire to be needed, wanted, loved, and validated—and how continually seeking those things dramatically shaped her formative years.

The collection tracks the writer’s quest for intimate knowledge of, and personal connection to, the natural features of his home region, the foothills and ridges of Northern Appalachia. Readers will follow Moyer along mountain streams and through native woodlands to insightful encounters with rare salamanders, wild trout, rattlesnakes, bears, songbirds, and bobcats, through a hurricane that turned to a blizzard, and working with troubled adolescents in a therapeutic camping program. In this selection of works, ranging from lengthy to one succinct page, Moyer reveals the meaning, and connection to place, he finds in butchering a deer in a freezing garage or in gathering blackberries amid summer’s heat. He also laments the loss of some familiar parts of the living landscape, unnoticed by many, as the region’s ecology absorbs onslaughts from invasive species and responds subtly to climate in transition. But overall, Smoke to See By is a quietly joyous celebration of the ecological resilience and diversity of a region those without Moyer’s perception might categorize as “unspectacular,” yet which harbors its own marvelous natural wonders, offered to those who would know them up close.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003e2024 WCoNA (Writers Conference of Northern Appalachia) Book of the Year!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0294\/8484\/3101\/files\/2024BOTY.png?v=1711466916\" width=\"173\" height=\"173\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003eWHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eForemost Appalachian essayist Ben Moyer does not take for granted Emerson’s adage that for everything you gain, you lose something else.

The message is clear and certain: Love is the only thing that matters. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;\"\u003e- Kelley Lynn, Certified Grief Counselor, viral TED talk speaker, and author\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;\"\u003e of \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMy Husband Is Not a Rainbow: the brutally awful, hilarious truth about Life, Love, Grief, and Loss.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;\"\u003eRebecca Daniels’ \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eThat Day, And What Came After: Finding and Losing the Love of My Life in Six Short Years \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003elovingly guides us through her experience of the unexpected death of her husband from sudden cardiac arrest.

He opens the existential crises of fast and furious living—prompting him to question the very essence of this fast-paced existence.

Now, he moves us into the fourth dimension—maybe the fifth. That place where space and time are warped by the gravity of mass. John takes a Trinity of women into the adventure of all time. He transcends what we know from our day-to-day life, providing striking examples of interaction with angels and demons. With the dilation of time, as he gains the power of the Seraphim and has been put down in Paris by Saint Thomas Aquinas, John is now in the power frequency of thrones. He coincides with what Heaven must offer and decides it is not enough. We are about to learn what two women and a Starseed shapeshifter can do to change the order of time, the power of the universe, and the dimensions of our future. Jacqueline Way, Kelly Marie, and Princess Merrilee of Solana become the story that changes your life, as John LaCasse brings them into the white light of time.
