SUMMARY:TSF Book Club | "Shifting Into High Gear" by Kyle Bryant
DESCRIPTION:You’re invited to join TSF’s next book club meeting on March 14th \, during which we’ll discuss “Shifting Into High Gear” by Kyle Bryant.\n\n\nShifting Into High Gear charts the course of Kyle Bryant’s transformation as he journeys on a recumbent tricycle across the United States in the throes of Friedreich’s ataxia\, a life-shortening and disabling disease. Full of humor and reflection\, it’s a heroic journey of a man driven to reframe the language of disease through action and service. \nAs you travel with Kyle during two cross-country bike rides through the American West\, Texas\, the Southern States\, and finally to the shores of the Atlantic Ocean\, the grueling rides become a compelling backdrop for a series of lessons and ruminations which embrace an alternative worldview and provide practical solutions to everyday problems. A thrilling adventure story\, yes\, Shifting Into High Gear is also ultimately about helping readers reinterpret the conditions of their lives and learning how positive thinking\, purposeful connection\, and deliberate actions can help anyone reach beyond their limits and live a bolder and bigger life no matter what the circumstance.\n\nDeeply passionate and compassionate\, Kyle uses his amazing story to teach readers how to replace the handicapping language of “disability” with the agency to build a thriving and hopeful life. He bravely exposes the shadow-side of using disabling language and asks us to commit to a collective goal of understanding disease and its emotional impact and embrace the disabled population as equal individuals. In telling his story\, Kyle’s desire is that instead of viewing disease as a deficit\, we would see it as another state of being—simply as a life which strikes out on a different path.

SUMMARY:TSF Book Club | "Being Mortal" by Atul Gawande
DESCRIPTION:You’re invited to join TSF’s next book club meeting on November 29th\, during which we’ll discuss “Being Mortal” by Dr. Atul Gawande.\nFrom Atul Gawande\, a book that has the potential to change medicine – and lives.\n\n\nThrough eye-opening research and gripping stories of his own patients and family\, Gawande reveals the suffering this dynamic has produced. Nursing homes\, devoted above all to safety\, battle with residents over the food they can eat and the choices they are allowed to make. Doctors\, uncomfortable discussing patients’ anxieties about death\, fall back on false hopes and treatments that shorten lives instead of improving them. And families go along with all of it.
