Another Medical Professional Praises EMPOWER Yourself!

B'SD


7 Av 5771






I found this book review at the Barnes & Nobel bookselling site:


Yocheved Golani has written a comprehensive manual for the ill and those helping the person experiencing a medical crisis. Her approach is compassioante and filled with messages of hope and universal faith.


I found the book to be pro-active, not reactive. In Ms. Golani’s encouragement to use positive language, she enables a reader to look at their circumstance as a point of growth. She has productive exercises for the reader, using one’s own words to approach a medical crisis (or chronic illness) is going to last much longer than the “you should” messages so many ill people face.


The list of resources is a valuable commodity! Whew, everyone experiencing illness should have access to this comprehensive list- it’s action oriented, for sure. Ultimately, the most endearing and enduring message one can receive from this book is: Medical crisises may happen, but who you are, how you manage- it’s in your hands. Pick up this book and be your own best advocate!

OK, the title of this blogpost lets you know that YOU can be a hero. Here's how:

Here's another chance to be heroic:

Rabbi Rachmiel Tobesman
will present a session,
Once Upon A Time To Comfort…
Jewish Children And Grieving,
at the 8th
North American Chevra Kadisha
and Jewish Cemetery Conference
in Atlanta, GA

at the Marriott Perimeter Center
- June 6-8, 2010 -
Sunday 1pm to Tuesday 1pm

Coping up with the death of a loved one
is hard enough,
but dealing with it as a child
is even harder.

Many Jewish children don’t understand
the grieving process
and are thrust into a world of
shiva, levaya, and kaddish
causing them even more
confusion and frustration.

Rabbi Tobesman will introduce
the new, helpful and inspiring book
A Time to Mourn, A Time to Comfort
as a source to guide children
in changing such a gloomy moment
into a time of discovery and healing.

A Time to Mourn, A Time to Comfort
is an invaluable resource
for parents and children,
filled with activities, stories
and explanations.

These features help children
to understand their feelings
and the grieving process
in the Jewish community.
Each chapter in this book
teaches children important skills
to cope with many of the
traditions and the feeling
of confusion so common
when someone dies.

Most books can only be read,
but this one allows children
to write, draw, doodle,
take notes, tape in pictures,
and even fold the pages.

Why Did a Reader Decide that YOU Need to Read "It's MY Crisis!" ?

8 Tamuz 5769

Readers of "It's MY Crisis! And I'll Cry If I Need To" contact me from time to time via E-mail or the "Comments" button below. One reader recently zapped her favorable book report to me, appreciating the fact that it IS "A Life Book that Helps You to Dry Your Tears and to Cope with a Medical Challenge."

Read on:


It’s MY Crisis!
And I’ll Cry if I Need To
Book Review by Valerie Farber

I’m very fortunate that I cannot remember any major medical crises in my life, but reading Yocheved Golani’s book, It’s MY Crisis! And I’ll Cry if I Need To (ISBN 978-1-60145-278-8, published by Booklocker.com, Inc.) made me aware how psychologically tumultuous it is to be dealt a life-threatening medical prognosis.

Yocheved was (it turns out) temporarily blinded because of the presence of a benign tumor deep in her brain. Two prominent neurosurgeons refused to operate on her as the tumor was lodged in an area that controlled breathing, head motion, vision, hearing, and facial sensation. Another surgeon, though, agreed to operate on Yocheved, but made no promises.


Yocheved is supremely qualified to write a self-help book for surviving medical trauma.

It’s MY Crisis! And I’ll Cry if I Need To describes Yocheved’s odyssey in battling disease. To slay her dragons, she drew on her strongest resources: deep religious faith, knowing herself, and recognition that optimism was her lifeblood and depression a slow-acting poison.

Yocheved recommends letting yourself cry if needed at the initial prognosis, positive thought, indoctrinating yourself with a healing mantra, joking, developing an arsenal of mood-savers like perusing your favorite photo albums, and absolutely forbidding your friends to obsessively discuss your medical condition.

Yocheved also gives good-sense logistical advice such as being knowledgeable about the procedures you will undergo, having an assertive friend ask medical questions if you are too shy to do so (being shy myself, this one was my favorite), and what items to bring to the hospital when you are admitted.

It’s MY Crisis! And I’ll Cry if I Need To presents a comprehensive list of medical resources and patients’ associations. Consulting with others who have undergone similar medical procedures is informative and can reduce trepidation [fear].

For me the most memorable part of the book is Yocheved’s amazing post-operative recovery story. Since recuperation was slow and Yocheved’s vision was improving only slightly, Yocheved pursued unorthodox healing methods. She adopted a regime of a highly organic diet, natural juices, and related healing methods. Over time, these natural cleansing methods purged toxins from her body and promoted full healing. Yocheved's vision improved, her physical strength is enviable and her skin glows.

Armed with deep faith, a spirit not-to-be crushed, and obvious Divine intervention, Yocheved has battled and survived. Read her book, savor her story and sage advice.


Most important of all, learn how you can mimic what she did.
