Holly Winter is a camera without film. She is a woman without a history. In this memoir, Winter helps us laugh in the face of adversity as she proves, time and again, that she is more than her medical history. Read about her struggles with two unrelated forms of amnesia, and how going on the Dr. Phil show helped her brain. These short stories are set against an inspirational backdrop of travel, romance, dating, cooking, teaching-and remembering who she is. If you're interested in true stories about amnesia, you'll find many in this amnesia book. Holly suffered complete and total amnesia, where she forgot and never recovered every memory of her childhood. There is one about first getting amnesia, (Life Began for Me, ) one about family helping Holly choose a career path, (Smothered Lie, ) and one about almost remembering--the most frustrating part of having amnesia, (The Birth of Memory #4.) Holly has 2 kinds of amnesia. The second one is called, visual amnesia. She can't visually recall what anything looks like, ever. You might enjoy reading about a visual memory test given by a famous doctor, (Can't (Visual) See (Memory) Houses (Test.) The story about trying to remember her boyfriend's face has gotten a lot of press. (Holding His Image in My Hands.) If you're interested in heart problems, read (Heart Surgery Looming in my Today.)

You'll find everything in this chapter from teaching severely disabled students (David Days) to the frustrations of giving standardized tests (Free Solutions to Raising Test Scores.) The story on how to teach kids about school violence (Quiet for Nothing) has gotten a lot of positive press. There are several stories about being a flight attendant.
