""If you're reading this, it means I'm already dead. Just kidding."" In 2009, at thirty years old, Bryan Bishop's life was right on track. Known to millions as "Bald Bryan," the sidekick and soundman on the record-setting podcast, "The Adam Carolla Show," his radio career was taking off. He was newly engaged. Then, he and his fiancee Christie were delivered a crushing blow when he was diagnosed with a brain stem glioma--an inoperable brain tumor. Suddenly Bryan's promising future was transformed into a grueling schedule of radiation and chemotherapy while facing his mortality. In this poignant narrative that is alternately heartbreaking and hysterical, Bishop shares the surreal experiences of writing his will with the bravado of a pulp novelist, taking chemo in a strip club, and (technically) the closest he ever got to achieving his lifelong dream of a threesome--when a physical therapist had to show his wife how to bathe him in the shower during his weakened state. Whether recounting his search for the most aggressive form of treatment, how radiation treatment jeopardized his ability to (literally) walk down the aisle or even smile for his wedding photos, or recalling the time his wife inadvertently drugged him in a pool in Maui, Bishop's inimitable voice radiates through his story. As the author celebrates how treatment shrunk his tumor and gave him a new lease on life, "Shrinkage" reveals the resilience of the human spirit--and the power of laughter--during even the darkest times., "**"A" New York Times "bestseller"**""" ""If you're reading this, it means I'm already dead.

A sea of grass, the llano appeared empty, flat, and barely habitable.Colette Peters's one-of-a-kind wedding cakes -- for which she charges hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars -- have made her America's most sought-after culinary artist.Ayres, author of the K-9 Rescue Series In the remote Rocky Mountains, lives depend on the Search & Rescue brotherhood.This collection is the best and most brazen of such attempts.Unfortunately, her return to his life comes at the worst time possible.Family life was almost destroyed by his condition, and his parents spent most of their waking hours trying to break into their son's autistic world and give him the help he so desperately needed.It's a must-have book for all eager beaders.Moreover, as spiritualism is commonly identified as a predominantly Victorian--and western--phenomenon, little has been done better to understand spiritualism in its global and temporal contexts.A History of the World Since 9/11shows us just why, a decade after the horrifying attacks on New York and Washington, we are no closer towinning the war on terror than we were on September 10, 2001.Now a mother of three, Julia once more pulls on her hiking boots and goes in search of Britain's Best Walks with a View for ITV.
