Description

The Bear's Embrace: A Story of SurvivalOn a chilly autumn morning in 1983, during a relaxing escape to the Canadian Rockies, Patricia Van Tighem and her husband were attacked by a grizzly bear. Although they survived, their ordeal was just beginning. For years Van Tighem endured numerous surgeries as doctors attempted to reconstruct her face and ease her pain. The nightmares that haunted her carried their own psychological burden. In many ways she had to redefine her sense of who she was.

On a chilly autumn morning in 1983, during a relaxing escape to the Canadian Rockies, Patricia Van Tighem and her husband were attacked by a grizzly bear. Although they survived, their ordeal was just beginning. For years Van Tighem endured numerous surgeries as doctors attempted to reconstruct her face and ease her pain. The nightmares that haunted her carried their own psychological burden. In many ways she had to redefine her sense of who she was. Yet she was resolved to recover-as a survivor, a wife and a mother.

Van Tighem's tale is astonishing and beautifully written. Showing a resilience that has overcome even the most traumatic of events, The Bear's Embrace is a truly inspiring testament to the power of the human spirit.

Great investment, and easy to assemble.
Color: Grey
Excellent dividers for the home. I purchased this set 3 years ago and recently had to place another order because the first order proved to be a perfect accessory in my basement apartment. As previously mentioned, I am in a basement apartment, and with these dividers, I can take an open space and create compartments. After a while, you forget that that open space was once a single room. These options added a great deal to my "Fonshuay," and lifestyle. This is a great investment and it was easy to assemble.

Very nice quality and appearance
Color: Beige
They were surprisingly stout and went together well. We had to return them because when we took them to where they would be used, they were too big to work in that location. Dang. But if we needed them in the future, I wouldn't hesitate to purchase them.
