@DastageerMuska In “Man’s Search for Meaning,” Viktor Frankl talks about this dynamic in relation to the Holocaust: “We who have come back, by the aid of many lucky chances or miracles—whatever one may choose to call them—we know: the best of us did not return.” https://t.co/OwqnTHWkvB

Taking Charge of Your Fertility: The Definitive Guide to Natural Birth Control, Pregnancy Achievement, and Reproductive Health

Toni Weschler
Leah McElrathLeah McElrath

I highly recommend “Taking Charge of Your Fertility” by Toni Weschler. The information about how to know when you are fertile is as relevant to preventing unwanted pregnancy as it is to getting pregnant. It taught me things I never knew about my body.

@summerbrennan I’m imagining this is for your dad and he continues his recovery. He might enjoy the Reacher Series by Lee Child. There are lots of them too, so, if he likes the main character, he’ll be set for a while. https://t.co/wv1qo35zi6
