Inexcusable Abuse

Revisado: 10-04-24

"Emma stayed strong throughout the humiliation of the insurance industry and the callousness of the legal profession. "

Above is a quote from another reviewer which should not be forgotten. Emma had no choice but to endure additional mental and physical abuse to prove over and over again, over five years, that, yes, she's paraplegic. Physicians knew this Day One.

I visited Dachau concentration camp as a 25 year old. The frigid air and the horror of the torture areas has never left me 50 years later.
Emma's story was just as appalling.

Didn't want this book to end. Ten Stars.

Revisado: 09-25-24

This amazing woman managed to chronicle her cancer journey without making the reader sick from the details describing her pain and grief, suffering right through college and a job she created for herself. For me, this book was devoid of self pity; she managed to work right through the chemo years, scars, loss of cancer friends, and major physical changes.

One pet peeve about this very well educated scholar's narration: pronunciation of words like mountains, i.e., "mount-ins", and several words like that.

Lucky Find. Pronunciation ALS needed check

Revisado: 05-31-24

I like Xe Sands very much. Consequently, I searched for all of the books she has narrated.
I really loved "The Devil Wears Scrubs". PROBLEM:
Pronunciation of medical term ALS is aMYOtrophic , not " AMMOtrophic". MYO refers to muscle. AMMO is .... This story was very good.

Well Written. Pronunciation Needed Editing.

Revisado: 05-27-24

I've followed Brent's YouTube channel since the beginning of the pandemic. One of his best videos is about how he had a ring made from the silver in his very own silver mine!, but, he mispronounces "Chaparral", the greatest name of his jeweler. The most tragic story about the fire was so well written, but, he mispronounces "bereaved"!
Notwithstanding mispronouncing common English words, his story is wonderful, and I have listened to this book several times. Great while hiking.

Brilliant mind put this story together!

Revisado: 07-07-23

I wish many, many more people knew about this book. Sometimes I hear of people disliking accents, (i.e.,) some people wanted David Attenborough series narrator dubbed with an American accent!)
I have listened to this book three times, even though I knew the unexpected twists in the story were coming. Author is way up there in talent with Michael Connelly' s EARLY books with this story.

Mispronounced common medical terms!

Revisado: 04-28-23

Judy managed to write, accurately, her book on after- death experiences that all previously well-known, and well- researched books on this subject already covered, in another interesting way. However, after having spent quality time interviewing several physicians about their experiences, she STILL mispronounced common medical terms. Couldn't finish reading.

Gets Preachy. Sorry I used a credit on this

Revisado: 06-07-21

Tries to convince reader he was right in forgiving the guy who abandoned defenseless Simon. The owner was well and able to get help with abandoning this animal, saying he had ZERO interest in PREVENTING Simon's suffering. Instead, the author went to visit to ascertain the owner's level of ability to communicate his difficulty with saving the animal. He quotes the animal's owner: "I thought he was dead", a GUESS from the owner, since he NEVER spent time with welfare checks for Simon.

One of My Favorites

Revisado: 07-31-20

I look forward to listening to this book again. I loved the partnership with his wife and son. Saddens me to know that people have time and energy to sue people like this wonderful man.
