The Beauty of Staying Together (Former Title: DETOUR
Calvina, the young battered wife of Duane, is in desperate need of a new start in life. Will her jealous husband, the mad man with whom she had been unequally yoked, prove too much to ever hope for a chance of staying together--a chance to fix her troubled marriage?
We encourage you to read the two main character profiles before reading the first chapter. We can be so wrong in the strong initial opinions we form of people, which we see in The Beauty Of Staying Together (originally published under the title: Detour), a story based on true events.

What are the Benefits of Vitamin C Supplements?
Vitamin and mineral supplements, as a general rule, should be avoided, because nutrients should be obtained from heirloom, organically grown foods. There are times, however, when it is necessary to take advantage of the wonderful benefits of vitamin C supplements. Benefits include: accelerated healing of wounds, increased absorption of the minerals iron and calcium, healthy formation of collagen, and conversion of the inactive form of folic acid to the active form. Other benefits of vitamin C supplements are: synthesis of erythrocytes (red blood cells) and some hormones, regulation of various essential processes within the body, and maintenance of healthy blood vessels.
When to Take a Vitamin C Supplement
It is extremely rare, particularly in the United States, for a medical doctor to advise consideration of the benefits of vitamin C supplements. An oral surgeon, however, made such a suggestion to one of his patients a few weeks prior to extracting her impacted wisdom teeth. This advice was given to her along with encouragement to eat bananas. Blood tests had revealed a low white blood cell count and low levels of potassium. White blood cells are involved in the protection of the body from infection. Thanks to the benefits of vitamin C supplements, his patient's white blood cell count rose. Eating bananas raised potassium levels and there were no complications after the extraction.
How to Choose the Best Vitamin C Supplements
People who, for whatever reason, might have to consider the benefits of vitamin C supplements would do well to choose the supplement carefully. It is almost always best to select one hundred percent pure acorbic acid (a powder) with absolutely nothing else added--not even a buffer. Generally the instruction on the bottle are to take one half teaspoon of the ascorbic acid from one to three times daily. This might be too much. Taking only 1/4 teaspoon twice per day has proven very effective for many people, including those with a deficiency. The ascorbic acid can be added to tea, one hundred percent vegetable or fruit juice, or water. If adding to tea, it is probably a good idea to add only to teas that would have a pleasant taste being tangy. Camomile and green tea are excellent choices to which ascorbic acid can be added.
The benefits of vitamin C supplements are truly wonderful, particularly when combined with a natural diet of wholesome, organically grown foods. People trying to fight infection while continuing to destroy their health with habits such as smoking and drinking should not expect the benefits of vitamin C supplements to halt damage.
