Breathing for a Living: A MemoirA 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.

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

C.G. Delivers Once Again -- Would Expect Nothing Less !!!
LOVE CHEM GUYS. these little wipes are awesome for quick cleaning.
and to leave in the trunk of the car for UBER Driving.
i love the VRP Hydro Spray - but you still need a rag to wipe it around. this solves that problem.
just need 2 to clean the whole car !! and i have weather.tech floor mats front and back.
these VPR Wipes make them look brand new in 5sec flat. and makes the black plastic car trim look sexy AF. NGL.
but i dont like it on the leather seats. its a little too slippery for me. i like the OG Leather Conditioner for that.
the cleaning wipes are really good too. can use them for any/every thing.
one square will die out kinda quick, but it you use 2, it lasts a long azz time. (Clean Wipes AND VRP Wipes)

Alright
The interior cleaner are a little too dry for my liking- it feels like I need to use multiple wipes for the same area. I like the VPR for the plastics around the car (looks a little greasy), but I don’t think $20 is worth only 30 wipes each. I would rather buy the spray. Maybe I’m not using the wipes correctly but “shines like new” didn’t happened on the doors.

Excellent combo pack.
The cleaner & protectant and VRP protectant are my new go to cleaner and protectant wipes, I’ve been using another brand for 30+ years but it’s time to try other brands, I bought these to give it a try and it didn’t disappoint, it works very well, I work in very dusty environments trying to clean and protect the interior is an ongoing battle, so far this combo cleaner and protectant is doing its thing as expected, the cleaner wipes are not heavily soaked but with just the right amount without leaving any streaks and the same goes for the protectant wipes.
