{"product_id":"9780992415105","title":"Heaven'S Special Mum","description":"Just off the main building on the open verandah, there are many more little patients. It's not a sunny veranda and it can be cold. The head of each bed is pushed up against the brick wall in a row down the veranda. Each child is fixed in place in some way. This was how Beryl Wyber spent much of her childhood in a hospital system which was overwhelmed by the polio epidemic of the 1930s: confined to a hospital bed at 17 months with spinal TB and allowed to see her mother for only an hour a week. On her release at 13 after 12 years in hospital she is mystified by things she had never experienced. No one had ever shown her a stove, a carpet, a chest of drawers or an electric fan. Beryl's story of discovery and her building a life in her teens is told by her daughter, author Lorraine Townsend. My book \"Heavens Special Mum\" is a moving tribute to the triumph over adversity ending in tragedy which was my Mother's life.\"\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eLorraine Townsend\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eLorraine Townsend\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eFeb 19, 2014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e225 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e0992415101\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9780992415105\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Lorraine Townsend","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48960189923633,"sku":"9780992415105","price":22.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9780992415105.jpg?v=1713935366","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9780992415105","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
