An Invincible Spirit – The Story of Don Fulk, As signed to Janet Allen

"Don taught us how to be a real independent living center. Nothing was easy; every issue that came up on the road to Don's independence was a challenge and a struggle, but the experience pushed us and we learned from it. We were not going to let Don down; all of us were committed to Don's freedom and independence." --Kathleen Kleinman, Executive Director, TRPIL (Transitional Paths to Independent Living) Profoundly deafened as an infant, Don Fulk didn't learn his name or go to school until the age of ten. When he was eighteen years old and a budding superstar on his football and basketball teams, he broke his neck in a swimming accident, and became paralyzed. After his injury, he was confined to a bed in his parents' home for eight years, unable to move and barely able to communicate. After his family could no longer care for him, he spent nine years in a nursing home where he suffered from abuse and neglect. Yet through a life marred by isolation and frustration, Fulk endured with strength, humor, and grace. He never gave up pursuing his dreams for independence and self-worth, and improving the lives of others. He fought a system that was unfair and discriminatory, and helped pave the way for people with disabilities to live independently. Don Fulk signed his story to author Janet Allen, describing his difficult home life, the incredible friends who changed his life, and his dramatic escape from an abusive nursing home. An Invincible Spirit is a story of hope, empowerment, and the battles people with disabilities have fought--and continue to fight--to improve the quality of their lives.

Using Literature to Help Troubled Teenagers Cope with End-of-Life Issues

Janet Allen

Greenwood Press
2001

Losing a loved one is a scary and confusing event for teenagers, but one that can be made easier through the use of literature and informed mentoring from a caring adult. This teacher friendly reference resource and bibliography provides tools for those who work with young adults to help them come to terms with the grieving process. Literacy experts and counseling professionals are uniquely paired in each chapter to explore specific types of loss and ways in which professionals can help students to explore their feelings by reading about those in similar situations. This novel approach encourages young people to cope with their losses while improving their literacy skills.Aware of the many ways in which adolescents can suffer loss, Allen has chosen a different theme for each chapter. These themes vary from coping with the death of a parent, to coping with violent deaths, to coping with an AIDS-related death. Annotated bibliographies in each chapter provide a wealth of information for those seeking the materials they need to address these issues, and original pieces written by young adult authors provide a rich context from which to work.

Some may perceive West Ford as the distinguished black soldier who rose from bondage to become care taker of the renowned Mount Vernon Estate. To his family, however, West Ford is and always has been the secret son of George Washington. Sworn to secrecy by his own mother, the slave woman Venus, West Ford never made his parentage public. Yet in the tradition of all great sagas the tale of West Ford and his true father has been passed down in hushed tones for generations. Janet S. Allen brings this long-hidden history to life with vivid re-imaginings and historical accounts. Follow the fascinating story of George Washington's burgeoning career as the father of a nation and the difficult life of the slave he fathered. This book takes readers beyond the dark years of slavery to the tumultuous era of reconstruction and finally on a remarkable journey to the western frontiers. Along the way we meet three generations of Fords and experience their fears, ambitions and their passions. Piecing together the written records, the oral histories and creative flourishes Tomorrow Came Yesterday creates a rich tapestry of history, romance and adventure. This is a story that transcends the life of one man and his family. It is a testament to the black experience in America and the long hard quest for dignity and respect.
