Alison Bedingfield Delgado had a conventional upbringing in a suburb of Greater Cincinnati. From an early age, Alison excelled in academics and athletics, graduating class valedictorian from Colerain High School, where she was a member of the four-time state champion cross country team. 
In her first-time entry into the Cincinnati Flying Pig Marathon in 2005, the unknown 22-year-old placed first in the women s division. Then, in 2010, as a newly wed and second-year pediatric resident at Cincinnati Children s Hospital, Alison was hit by a car while cycling on a suburban road. Her husband, an emergency helicopter physician at University Hospital, was dispatched to treat an unidentified traffic victim and bring her back to University of Cincinnati Medical Center only to discover the patient was his wife. 
Alison had suffered a traumatic brain injury and developed aneurysms that required surgery and intensive rehabilitation therapy. With patience and exceptional determination, the young physician completed her medical training and is now a practicing pediatrician in Park City, Utah. She resumed running, and while placing fourth in the 2012 Flying Pig, bested her own time from 2005. She went on to compete in the Boston Marathon. 
Dr. Delgado hopes that her story will be an inspiration for others who face seemingly impossible odds. This beautifully written memoir is her first book. 
It is attracting rave reviews by critics and the public. Author and educator Mark Curnutte had this to say: Alison Delgado's autobiography is much like the woman herself on a marathon course. It covers a lot of ground quickly and efficiently. Written in a consistent and honest voice one adhering to her scientific and medical training and steering clear of the sentimentality that could bog it down My Race for Life will often leave readers shaking their heads in disbelief, asking, 'Did that really happen?'

Jeremy Burnside's law school ordeal was much much worse than most. In what could only be called an Appalachian Apocalypse, his college town of Grundy, Va. was afflicted with an explosion, which destroyed his apartment on the eve of final exams, and a flood. And three people, including the Dean, were murdered on campus. These horrendous incidents came on top of his failure to make grades in his first semester. 
With an amazing burst of determination, creative study techniques, and self-discipline, Jeremy learned to think like a lawyer, and avoided almost certain expulsion. He became a first-rate law student, graduated, and passed the bar in Ohio and Kentucky. Burnside is now an outstanding trial lawyer in Portsmouth, Ohio. 
As Jeremy tells us in this engaging story, he was faced with an almost impossible situation. Burnside's ability to go from academic probation to Dean s list in one semester was near miraculous. His experience, as related here, is a true story dramatized by fictional characters and conversations. It is a classic young man s coming-of-age tale set in an Appalachian Paper Chase environment. Jeremy s ordeal is alternately hilarious and perplexing, but ultimately heart-warming and inspiring.
The law is a demanding mistress, but she promises a meaningful life of service to those who survive the rigors of law school and studying for the bar. The young men and women who pursue careers in the law deserve our gratitude and respect. In a world of declining standards, the law remains one of the last true professions, and lawyers are guardians of our individual rights and liberties. Yes, some lawyers try to pervert the law and serve sinister interests. But they are the exceptions.
Lawyers like Jeremy Burnside exemplify the positive side of law seeking justice for people, sometimes against long odds.

The history of health care in Greater Cincinnati has a long and illustrious tradition. A new book from Bethesda Inc. documents the origins and evolution of this charitable institution.
 Bethesda has been one of the leading healthcare providers in Greater Cincinnati since its humble beginnings in 1896, when a German Methodist minister convened seven women deacons to found the Deaconess Association and Bethesda Hospital. Their mission was to minister to the health and spiritual needs of the sick poor, especially the large immigrant community from the German states. The early years featured home visits by the deaconesses, who brought care directly to residents of the overcrowded city. Maternity and pediatric services were early priorities, and women were respected workers and administrators. The School for Nursing, which trained nurses and social workers, introduced a new field for professional women. 
 The Ripple Effect:How Bethesda Transformed Health Care in Cincinnati reveals how Bethesda Hospital grew from a single building in Mount Auburn into a multi-faceted organization that is now a partner in TriHealth, an integrated modern healthcare system. It is a fascinating story, documenting the contributions of the healthcare heroes doctors, nurses, educators, administrators, and donors who created a holistic healthcare system. Their dedication remains the driving force behind Bethesda s success.

In the Land of Soon Come written by educator Barbara Coyle the book tells the true story of Coyle's inspired voyages to Jamaica, beginning in 2005. This beautifully illustrated book features teenagers, but the story is suitable for all ages. 
 This book tells of the trips Barbara led to Negril, Jamaica. Coyle took students, as well as a few parents, from Cincinnati parochial and public schools. The missionaries worked among the Jamaican parishioners of Fr. James Bok, a Cincinnati native and childhood friend of the author. (Their families were neighbors in Reading, Ohio.) American youths learned to appreciate the culture and the people, who were poor in material goods, but rich in friendship and spiritual gifts. Like Ms. Barbara, they were impressed with the faith and wisdom of the Jamaican philosophy, which emphasized patience and trust that God's blessings would "soon come." 
 This engaging book is suitable for use in schools, libraries, religion classes, and home schools. It will prove a welcome gift from the parent or grandparent looking for an inspirational and aesthetically pleasing book to share with a child. Youthful artist Taylor Kling created more than twenty original artworks expressly for this publication.
