On February 4, 2012, a young forty-nine-year-old female had a stroke while in a Kroger store. This was before all the ads came out about if someone can't talk, you need to get them to the ER. That was what had happened to her the day before. She then had a stroke while her son was waiting for her to bring him his treats for the wrestling tournament that he was in. Her daughter was waiting for her to come home, and she was calling her to see what was the matter. Her mother didn't take the phone with her. She didn't think she would need it. The funny thing was that, this woman was an experienced ICU, psychiatry, and emergency room RN. The things that happened after she had her stroke were unbelievable and life changing. She had a second stroke, a seizure, an inordinate amount of falls, depression, and anxiety. She had dealt with infidelity. She spent her time in one room of a large house, only leaving occasionally. It had been a difficult road, but even with total disability, you can overcome. This book is written to give others support, to let nurses know that you have to take care of yourself and you can never pray too much.

When is enough, enough in a relationship? Marriage can be the most blissful relationship we can experience on earth, yet it canat the same timebe the most challenging endeavor. In Loving When You Dont Feel Like It, Dr. Shon Neyland provides practical insights into discovering and applying unconditional love in relationships. It is more common to do unto others as they have done unto you. Unfortunately, this kind of thinking has certainly eroded the concept of forgiveness, grace, and mercy. If we are honest, we have to acknowledge that unconditional love is really hard to seize and fully implement, as our natural tendency is to protect ourselves even at the risk of losing the one we love. Unconditional love is the ingredient that many are missing in their relationships, and this book provides the blueprint to build that kind of love.
