Hearing is one of our most precious senses. It allows us to communicate with family and friends and keeps us in contact with the sounds of life that surrounds us twenty-four hours a day. Unfortunately, most of us don't realize how important this sense is until hearing problems begin to affect our daily lives. In A Silent Cheer, Dr. Emily F. Roback and her mother, Faye D. Roback-Jones, provide an insider's look at deaf culture, demonstrating how parents of hearing-impaired or deaf child can learn the ropes of determination, and how every day tens of thousands of Canadians with disabilities continue to make a difference. This memoir follows the Roback's journey from Emily's diagnosis with severe to profound hearing loss when she was three years old. A Silent Cheer tells Emily's inspirational story of facing often overwhelming adversities to achieving success as a doctor of chiropractic medicine, a renowned fitness leader in Western Canada, and the president of her own company. In addition, Faye reveals the strategies she used to help her daughter's transformation from strawberry farm girl to doctor, including the challenges she overcame to ensure Emily received the same quality education as her peers.

This was my private war. The streets were a battlefield. We were fighting over drugs and risking death. The syringes we used were filthy, we would get infected by diseases, but we didn’t care. I was tired from running, hiding, hustling, and stealing. So I escaped and signed up for the Army. But, the Army gave me orders to Fort Campbell, Kentucky, which was close to Clarksville; I was back to the streets, back to my private hell. The junky, however, was excited, “We are going back to the crib; you are going to have a paycheck twice a month; that’s enough money to go have fun in the hood all over again!” he screamed. I had come full circle; I desperately wanted to get cured but couldn’t get the cure. I was so close to getting better, yet I was so far from the cure.
“If pain is love then ink can create soul mates.” An inked god raised by the streets and one of the most prominent hustlers in all of Brooklyn, everyone is shocked to learn that Shacago has decided to give up the game and pursue his dream of becoming one of the best tattoo artists New York City has to offer. Pouring his heart, soul, and every dollar he's hustled for into Rosé’s Tattoo Shop, Shacago's spot on cloud nine is snatched from under him when his ex-girlfriend, Rosé, reappears after disappearing seven years ago. Everything about her still looks the same—especially the body art he decorated her with—but there’s something different about her. Although he’s tempted to push her away, discovering the truth about the elusive Rosé makes Shacago give her a spot at his shop, even if it means opening a door he swore would stay closed. A tatted beauty with a few dark secrets of her own, Rosé returns back to Brooklyn with the hopes of picking up where her and Shacago left off. Her plans crumble to pieces when she discovers that while Shacago has been successful in following his dreams, he's sharing them with someone else—his girlfriend of two years, Zarielle. Not one to back down from a challenge, Rosé takes her position as apprentice to Shacago as her way to weasel back into his good graces and maybe even his heart. Rosé knows that the connection between the two of them is strong, however, one thing stands in the way—the reason she left Shacago when his back was against the wall. While everything in her heart tells her that revealing the truth will destroy any chances they have of getting back together, Rosé holds on to one fact: If it dies easy, then it was never true love. In the midst of Shacago and Rosé’s love-of-war is Shacago's little brother, Xavier. With dreams of becoming the next big name in Brooklyn, Xavier realizes that there’s one thing missing from his success: Shacago. More specifically, Shacago's cache. Not afraid to lie, cheat, steal, or double cross, Xavier is determined to do whatever it takes to get Shacago to return to the game. Even if it means putting a knife if the one person that’s always had his back.
