My beautiful wife in the Pysch Ward: A Memoir – book Review
My beautiful wife in the Pysch Ward : A Memoir
by mark Lukach
Audio book review of the best selling memoir released 2017.
Is it a good listen?
I’m sharing a quick review of the book available on Audible.
From Amazon:
A heart-wrenching yet hopeful memoir of a young marriage that is redefined by mental disease and affirms the power of love.
Mark and Giulia’s life together began as a fairy-tale romance. They fell in love at eighteen, got married at twenty-four, and started their dream life in San Francisco soon after. but when Giulia was twenty-seven, she suffered a frightening and unexpected psychotic break that landed her in the psych ward for nearly a month. one day she was dynamic and well adjusted; the next, she was delusional and suicidal, convinced that her loved ones were not safe.

This list just has the basics, which implies it ought to be small and easy to keep in your gym bag or car. It’s essential to have these things easy access when you need them. then if you need much more care you can get home or to the doctor or urgent care center (or some other place that helps when you feel injured or sick).
This small first aid kit is broken down by common running injuries or emergency situations.
In the case of a major or life-threatening emergency call 9-1-1. and when you get home take the next steps to help whatever issue you encountered out on the run.
I have my runner first aid kit in a small plastic zip bag but a gallon size plastic zip-lock type bag would work too.
Mini first aid kit for Runners
Cuts / Scrapes – Anti-septic // Bandages with anti-bacterial or healing properties // Wound Cleanse kit // Bandages specifically for knees (I need these because the last time I fell it was very hard to find a bandage to stay on my knee and I had to hit up CVS for something like this)
First Aid // Bandages // Wound Kit
Knee Bandages
Blisters – Blister Cushions // Moleskin
Most of the time blisters aren’t that big of a deal in terms of seriousness of injuries go – but they can get worse and hurt a lot if you don’t take proper precautions to avoid and treat them.
Sprains / Strained Muscles – ice pack // athletic tape // compression wrap // acetaminophen
Comfort Wrap // Kinesiology Tape
Cramps and/or Dehydration – Water // Salt tabs // Electrolyte tabs like Orange Mix
Stomach issues – Anti-diarrhea Camiseta Paris Saint-Germain <- this is also something you want to have with you whenever traveling to a race! Keep something like this Stomach Relief in your first aid kit, travel bag and pre-race bag if you tend to have a sensitive stomach. Allergic reactions – If you have a known allergy make sure you have any required medication on hand whatsoever times. If they’re seasonal allergies you ought to have some sort of Allergy relief option. CVS health has recently launched a line of dye totally free options for both kids and adults. Extreme weather – space blanket // extra visor or hat Pre-existing issues – if you have any medical conditions that require medication or a reoccurring injury that requires particular first aid, make sure to include that in your kit too. know your body and what it needs to stay healthy and running strong! Bonus Tip: Make sure your emergency contact person is under ICE aka “In case of Emergency” in your phone and/or noted in some way. When we’ve been running for a while (or really doing anything!) it starts to become easy breezy and casual so things like dangers or safety precautions can slip our minds. This is just a lil pointer to make sure you’re prepared – hopefully you won’t need this stuff! but you’ll be pleased you have it in case of emergency (or for when you fall 3 times a year like clockwork – is that just me?). ALWAYS be smart and safe. Pay attention to your surroundings and if you have any sort of accident or issue- treat yourself kindly and take care of it. Question: Do you have a first aid kit in your car or somewhere easily accessible?
