"Stand close to the side of the bed, with your feet 8-12 inches apart."

WAIT!!!!! I can explain.

It's from "Quick Tips for Caregivers" a textbook I used to help develop an online curriculum for people who wish to have training in becoming a caregiver. It's talking about how to move a patient up in bed! (At least it wasn't in the section about how to help someone with the bedpan...)

HILARIOUS!

This is an easy to read book that once you pick it up you won't want to put it down.  Robin is a born-again Christian and her faith is very obvious in the book.  The McGraws journey through one heartwrenching life event after another and you think that some of them will break the marriage but you know the old saying, "That which doesn't kill us only makes us stronger."  Sometimes Dr. Phil gets a bad rep but if you like them as a couple or just adore Robin as many do; then you will love this book.  Go out and get yourself a copy.  I got it for Christmas 2 years ago--hardback but it is now in paperback and a lot cheaper ;+) ~Gigi
