Twenty one year old Laura Rothenberg has always tried to live a normal life even with lungs that betray her, and a sober awareness that she may not live to see her next birthday.

A moving account by an extraordinary young woman who mounts a daily struggle with cystic fibrosis in an effort to lead an ordinary life. Twenty-one-year-old Laura Rothenberg has always tried to live a normal life--even with lungs that betray her, and a sober awareness that she may not live to see her next birthday. Like most people born with cystic fibrosis, the chronic disease that affects lungs and other organs, Rothenberg struggles to come to grips with a life that has already been compromised in many ways. Sometimes healthy and able to go to school, other times hospitalized for months on end, Rothenberg finds solace in keeping a diary. In her writing, she can be open, honest, and irreverent, like the young person she is. Yet mixed in with this voice is an incredible maturity about her mortality. The memoir opens with Rothenberg's decision to accept a lung transplant. From the waiting--and all it implies to the surgery, recovery, and her new life, Rothenberg muses on mortality in journal entries and poetry. Through it all, she reveals a will and temperament that is strong and wise despite her years. Laura Rothenberg's story, recorded and shared on NPR's Radio Diaries, was awarded the prestigious Third Coast Audio Festival Award, it also received an unprecedented listener response and generated more e-mail than any other story the producers could recall. Rothenberg's story was also featured in the New York Times and U.S. News & World Report.Binding Type: Paperback

Decent face moisturizer with SPF
Huron’s SPF 30 Face Moisturizer offers a refreshing experience for daily sun protection. Unlike many other SPF products, this moisturizer does not have that overly strong "sunblock" smell, making it pleasant to use throughout the day. It's there, but it does not dominate the lotion when applied. Application goes on smoothly and absorbs quickly without leaving any sticky or streaky residue behind.
One of the standout features is how it avoids that common greasy feeling often associated with sunblock. Instead, it leaves your face feeling naturally soft and well-moisturized. Ideal for anyone looking for effective moisturizer with sun protection. Highly recommended for those who want a non-oily, fast-absorbing solution for their daily skincare routine.
I have previously tried Anthony Day Cream with SPF 30 and would rate this product in the same league.

Worth the price
Scent: Face Wash, Size: 5.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Although I was hesitant to buy this at first since it’s about twice the price as the facial cleansers I normally use, it’s by far the best face wash I’ve ever used. It exfoliates the skin very well and leaves your face feeling clean after use. Definitely worth the extra few dollars

Greasy, does not blend in well but does not leave white marms
Overall, when researching this product, I saw that it does not leave the white residue on your face like normal sunscreen does, I’m looking for a face moisturizer first with SPF but this one feels more just like an SPF sunscreen. It is pretty greasy shortly and after a few hours of having it on, especially when sweating it makes my face feel really oily, and also it does not blend in very well such as pretty much like I just mentioned you could still feel it on your face a couple hours later but if the no white resident is the most important thing for you, it does not leave that residue. It’s cruelty free and vegan product (no animal products in it or animal testing done) so that’s good but I will most likely not be purchasing this .
