"Greg: A Liver Transplant Recipient" is an intimate look into the life of my family and myself. It covers the struggles of a child who was burdened with medical difficulties following birth. The Gaines family has been on both sides of organ transplantation, dealing with their first child needing a transplant and then choosing to donate the organs of their second, now deceased, child. Knowing that every family, just like every human-being, is imperfect, we have all managed to not only stick together but to stay happy. Regardless of how many times we have smiled, there were times when I thought that my life was never going to get any better. I'm sure that my parents have felt the same way many times over again but before I could live up to my nickname, they were my Rock. We have cried many tears and I have struggled for many years but God was always right there beside us. Every time I started feeling sorry for myself, somebody would say a prayer and things would always start to look up from that point on. Becoming a writer was the best thing that could've ever happened to me. I feel that it is my responsibility to inform others, who are currently facing health problems, that they are not alone. Everybody had some type of struggle in their lives and everybody can find strength and perseverance in God's name and knowing that somebody else is going through some of the same things that you're going through. I've gone from what it seems to feel like Heaven to Hell and back again from some of my own actions and reactions but one thing is always clear: God has been watching..
Visually and pedagogically rich, this wide-ranging introduction to key concepts and debates in welfare uses an innovative, question-based narrative to highlight the importance of theory to understanding welfare.
Rich in captivating narratives, the four books of Dialogues of Gregory the Great (Pope, 590-604) present hagiographical accounts of the lives of Italian saints whose holiness remained intact during tumultuous times. Of these, the most famous is the monastic founder Benedict, whose life story occupies all of Book Two. These stories, along with Book Four's mixture of expository and narrative assurances of the immortality of the soul, must have been encouraging to its contemporary Italian readers, especially since Gregory wrote these books at a time when Italy had been ravaged by barbarian invasions, floods, plagues, and famines.
First published in 1903, this book is an edition by James Herbert Srawley of the Oratio Catechetica by Gregory of Nyssa. Collating the texts of numerous manuscripts - many of which had not been used to produce an edition before - Srawley's edition was designed to assist students in placing Gregory's treatise in its proper historical setting.
