Hardback. Condition: Good. From a young age, Merril knew it would be up to him to act on his dreams. He suffered abuse at the hand of his father, lost his mother at age 19 and was considered 'too small and too slow' to play professional football. He proved his critics wrong. Merril played eight seasons in the NFL before retiring in 1995 after a series of concussions but in 2003, he faced his biggest challenge of all: cancer. Diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, Merril took on chemotherapy with the same tenacity that got him to the NFL. With every obstacle, Merril returned to the boyhood motto pinned on his bedroom wall: FIND A WAY. His experience is proof that what separates the extraordinary individual from the ordinary one is the will and determination to find a way to succeed. This book will chronicle Merril's personal battles but it will also help others gain courage, resilience and an undying spirit - motivating and inspiring readers to overcome any obstacle in their lives.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. The essential handbook for anyone who has ever returned from a war zone, and their spouse, partner, or family members. Being back home can be as difficult, if not more so, than the time spent serving in a combat zone. It's with this truth that Colonel Charles W. Hoge, MD, a leading advocate for eliminating the stigma of mental health care, presents Once a Warrior--Always a Warrior, a groundbreaking resource with essential new insights for anyone who has ever returned home from a war zone. In clear practical language, Dr. Hoge explores the latest knowledge in combat stress, PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder), mTBI (mild traumatic brain injury), other physiological reactions to war, and their treatment options. Recognizing that warriors and family members both change during deployment, he helps them better understand each other's experience, especially living with enduring survival skills from the combat environment that are often viewed as symptoms back home. The heart of this book focuses on what's necessary to successfully navigate the transition--LANDNAV for the home front. Once a Warrior--Always a Warrior shows how a warrior's knowledge and skills are vital for living at peace in an insane world. …
