Mother, Please Talk to Me about Menopause. What Is Happening to Me? Conversation #1: Around the table with Questions, comments, AND concerns (Conversa (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781662843709)

Conversation #1: Women, designed by God to create life in the womb for nine months and then to bring forth that life. To feed that life with the milk that fills our breast during post pregnancy. But what happens when that season is over, and the birthing womb begins to shut down? Answer: Hot flashes, night sweats, personal summers, and mood swings. It's the season that almost every woman will go through. Yet, it's the elephant in the room no one wants to talk about. The elephant's name is menopause. The author shares her personal story of night sweats, hot flashes, and mood swings. She shares a humorous story of having one of her first hot flashes while speaking with her male supervisor. She discusses what she defines as the "craziness" of mood swings. What about "man"opause? Yes, she goes there. By the way, did you know that menopause is just one day? (Huh?) Conversation #2: Around The Table The author addresses her grandchildren being biracial and the negative connotation behind the "one drop rule". The author shares true stories of other women's struggles and journeys. She challenges readers to remember before you judge, criticize, or ridicule someone to remind yourselves that: "We don't know their story." The author shares how she took her first swimming lessons in August 2017, and the importance of "letting go of the wall" both literally and symbolically in life. Her Christmas story, in which her father shared how much he loved her without saying a word, will warm your heart. Come join the author in an around the table discussion as she addresses a few of her questions, comments, and concerns. This book is an informative read for both women and men.
