Sobre IBD

Sometime during 2013, I became aware of my first symptoms. I was diagnosed in March 2015. I rushed to finish the book I was writing since my retirement in March 2011. Under a perceived shortage of time, I decided to self-publish. The book was out by mid-2016. By early 2018, I was getting restless. I started writing again. Naturally, much of what I wrote concerned my experiences with ALS. Having learned how to publish a book, I indulged myself. I have now three more. While reading posts from sufferers of ALS, whether patients or care-givers, I concluded that there might be benefits if I made my writings more accessible. So, I gathered the relevant chapters from the three books, added a preamble and some final notes and went 'to press'. For a small but very special audience. May some find help.

  • Odds and Ends
    John E. Beerbower
    I have now written over 700 pages about political/social matters and 900 pages on science. But, I keep on reading and thinking, and new issues and different perspectives keep arising, with no end in sight. So, I return to the practice of collecting the first versions of new essays in modest-sized books as part of my Wanderings series. As long as I continue to wonder, I shall co...

  • Disappointments
    John E. Beerbower
    Disappointment.  It comes in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes, we see it coming, or, even invite it; sometimes, it takes us by surprise. It can be a shock or a relief. So, that is my theme for this tiny volume. I am still wandering. Any writer of nonfiction will look for an angle, a theme, a perspective, that will give his book a claim of originality, of making a contribution to...

    My father grew up on a small farm in a very small town in northwestern Ohio, appropriately called Hicksville. Its claim to fame is that it is mentioned in Huckleberry Finn. My mother’s father during the 1930s worked at the YMCA so that his family could eat meals in the cafeteria. That was his pay. My parents both graduated from Ohio State University. They married right after my...
