Shock. That was Darla's first reaction when her carefree childhood was disrupted by cancer. Her life became a roller coaster of intense emotions. Sadly, she lost her leg and, ultimately, faced death. During her illness, we shared difficult times, but also great times celebrating life as Darla grew in faith and joy. She lived in the present (not worrying about her past or future) and was very positive. Darla was a joy to be with because she was joyful!

My name is Joseph A. Peragine, and I am a paranoid schizophrenic. On October 22, 2000, I tried to kill myself in a severely hallucinogenic state due to undiagnosed paranoid schizophrenia. I was suffering from this illness for many years leading up to that day. Every October since I started my recovery in 2000, I reflect on my life and am extremely thankful that I was fortunate enough to have been given a second chance. Every October, I especially make it a priority to tell my family and loved ones how much I love them.

Real Words With Sam tells the true story of a father who, after two decades, discovers that his autistic son has been fully aware, perceptive, and engaged all along. Through spelled communication, Sam’s inner voice emerges, revealing insight, humor, and emotional depth that challenge long-standing assumptions about disability and intelligence. What many experts labeled as “behaviors” and a “learning disorder” is actually apraxia—a condition affecting output, not input or understanding.

Sugar Mamas is a book of personal stories of women who have a condition called lipedema, which affects 11% of women in the world and results in often debilitating fat deposits in the legs, thighs, hips, arms and other areas. While lipedema is primarily a woman's disease, the research on the condition has only in the last five years really taken off, so the causes and treatments are still in early research stages.

“I was twelve when they locked me away. They didn’t give me therapy though. They gave me trauma.” Broken Doll is a brutally honest collection of poetry and artwork created from inside the walls of psychiatric institutions. Written by Michelle, a survivor who spent her entire adolescence sectioned in mental health units, this book lays bare the pain, confusion, and silent fury of growing up in a broken system. Through raw, emotionally charged poems and haunting original artwork, Michelle documents years of systemic abuse, isolation, and resistance.

Madness and genius are often said to be close bedfellows, although the link between the two is little understood. Chris Joseph has known both extremes, and in The Golden Straitjacket, he lays bare his struggle with bipolar disorder and the condition's pendulum-like swing between creative dynamism and dark despair. The 66 stories or "manicdotes" can be enjoyed together or in isolation - they tell the tale of an extraordinary man whose struggle to overcome physical and mental obstacles will be an inspiration to anyone facing the stigma of physical disability and mental illness.
