IS THIS YOUR CHILD? These are the major symptoms of potentially unrecognized allergies. Does your child suffer from any of the following?- Allergic Nose Rub - Eye Circles - Red Ears - Red Cheeks - Eye Wrinkles - Aggression - Lack of Alertness - Mottled Tongue - In this breakthrough book, Dr. Doris Rapp offers a simple yet effective approach to handling problem children. Is This Your Child? shows parents how to identify the common foods, chemicals, or common allergic substances that could be the culprits that cause some children or adults to feel unwell or act inappropriately. If your child is always sick, hyperactive, a slow learner, or cranky, the first question you should ask is not What drug should be prescribed? or What have I done wrong as a parent? Instead, find out the cause. Dr. Rapp gives sensible suggestions about how these reactions to foods and environmental factors can be recognized, prevented, and treated. With this information, many affected children should feel, act, behave, and learn better. If you can detect unsuspected environmental illness in your child--or yourself--you can change your lives so you're more content, happy, and free of illness.

Romancing God: The Divine Love Affair, is a poetic epistolary series that embodies the spirit of the biblical poets. If you have read Job, Psalm, Proverbs, or Ecclesiastes, you know that these open diaries express the transparency of the human heart to God. Like Job, David and Solomon, author, DORIS WELLINGTON documents her spiritual contemplations during some of the most difficult times in her life. What started as a one-day muse evolved into years of putting to paper the soul of a journey that has helped to balance a life often fractured by the harsh realities of the world. Romancing God is the human heart lifted up to a divine God, and God pulling it up to caress and console, instruct and guide, heal and liberate, and to confirm through words that when the heart believes it can be the recipient of miracles that some dismiss as unobtainable. In the form of a true master, the author pulls her audience into her literal and figurative world to illuminate that the relentless pursuit of divine purpose, power and peace is more often than not paved with intense suffering and extraordinary challenges, and that for most; though the fruit is a desired outcome, the journey of fire is declined. Romancing God: The Divine Love Affair does not propose any particular construct upon which these visitations are built, received or understood; they are neither patterns to be followed nor biblical doctrines or spiritual principles to espouse; they are purely the expressions of the heart in my personal relationship with God. For me, Romancing God tucks me into the warm trusting embrace of God's love and allows me to be authentic in worship.
Drawing inspiration from the metaphoric and real-life experiences of women, particularly African American women, Dead Woman Dancing on Her Grave, interweaves poetic narratives to salute, and inspire warrior women from every walk of life-who despite sometimes insurmountable odds, still rise to the call of champions to live out their greatness alongside of those who think themselves less formidable. And to snatch from the mire of mediocrity and lift to new heights of self-awareness and victory, women who have not yet resolved the importance of their place and presence in society, and women who triumph despite barriers designed to bar them from being or becoming their authentic selves-Bravo

Nothing reveals the secrets of the heart like a letter to a lover, a friend, or a significant other. The heart stores the emotional investment of its relationships as if those emotions are heirlooms to be treasured, passed along or recycled for the next relationship. Dear John, is a compilation of letters written to individuals at various levels of relationships. These letters express a range of emotions from affectionate love to disappointment, grief and loss from heartbreak, and downright disgust over the audacity of certain suitors whose expectations exceed reality. It is the journey of disengaging the heart from the emotional pain and regret of love; lost, found or attempted. These letters were written to explore and express what these relationships contributed to the enrichment of love, or the unraveling of life. They expose complicated liaisons that often mask complicity and compromise for the sake of "getting it on" or "getting along." Or to hide wounds inflicted in relationships that should've never existed at all, let alone in the form of romance. Thankfully, they are also penned as testaments to the enduring power of love. For those who have already gone there in your thinking, The Dear John Reader is not a diary of physical relationships. It is not an odyssey of forbidden love and fantasy desires. It is neither the first nor last installment of love gone wrong. However, these letters are based on real-life situations that span a range of issues as far back as Junior high school and are included by permission to help understand intimate, interpersonal relationships whether romantic, physical, emotional, plutonic or otherwise. It is the value of these relationships that the Dear John Reader measures, taking into consideration the depth of the emotional investment involved to determine what lesson each engendered. These letters are mere guides and not intended for instructions as to whether to enter or how to exit a particular relationship. Therefore, if needed, seek wise counsel or therapy to help navigate your safe exit out of an abusive or unfulfilling relationship.
How is it possible for a stay-at-home mother of ten children to excel with painting and then with writing? How can the world need the stories of someone so uneducated in the writer's world? Encouragement for writing was always there for me so I did not hesitate to write when something triggered my interest. I've collected all the bibs and bobs of my writing and put them in book form. A lot about my feelings and stories of people who have turned up in my life, and throughout the years I have been making up and telling my brothers original stories when we were young, writing essays at school, reciting poetry, I have been in plays, writing letters back home and writing in diaries. I have been honing this discipline all the time without knowing it. And I must say, throughout my life everything I have done was honest.
