Just a cup of tea |
|
110 Pages, 37,198 Words |
'Just a cup of tea' is a book
about an ordinary person's experience of having a
heart attack and bypass surgery. It is told as
I experienced it. The book does not offer
medical advice as I am not qualified to do so.
Rather, the book offers an insight into the
physical, and emotional, effects of suffering a
heart attack, how ones family is affected and the
road to recovery. The book is intended as
a source of information, and hope, to the thousands
of people who suffer the effects of heart disease
every year.
The book has been received well by the people
selected to read it, and the consensus of opinion
is, that it will help you and your family if you are
starting on the journey down this most difficult of
roads. For more information please

Hawksbury |
|
217 Pages, 76,271 Words |
Hawksbury, a magnificent country
mansion set in 3,000 acres of English countryside.
Bequeathed by Lord Kingsbury in 1947 with one
proviso - that it must become, and remain, a
hospital.
53 Years on, Hawksbury is a major hospital, run by a
board of governors, each with a medical background.
It has a chain of command and dress code, coupled
with discipline from a time now gone.
We move through day to day life in the large
hospital - a great part in accident and emergency,
with many case scenarios unfolding, following the
lives of surgeons, doctors and nurses, also
many of the patients.
The story moves quickly between Hawksbury and Egypt,
where an expedition is taking place by an
Egyptologist, known to one of the surgeons at
Hawksbury, thereby linking the two intertwining
stories, which later become one, as the catastrophic
events of the book unfold.
The hospital becomes involved with an event that
took place 2200 years BC in Egypt. The human
race stands on the very brink of destruction.
Then comes a discovery so awesome, that every human
being will be touched by the unfolding events.
