Pratibha Savani

Poet

Det var först nyligen som Pratibha betraktade sig själv som en poet. Hon skrev först för 20 år sedan, för att få ut sina känslor när hon kämpade med eksem och började sedan tycka om att skriva mer och mer. Hon är också konstnär och älskar att använda mix media, kol, pasteller och akryl.

 

Pratibha kommer från East Midlands, Storbritannien och arbetar för närvarande inom fortbildning för att stödja studenter med arbetslivserfarenhet och anställningsbarhet, och även nätverk med arbetsgivare. Nu arbetar hon deltid samtidigt som hon är en upptagen mamma, Pratibha har en aktiv livsstil och har ett positivt tänkesätt i allt hon gör genom meditation, yoga och läsning. Hennes andra intressen är att se science fiction, dramer och dokumentärer och gå på utställningar.

 

Pratibhas passion är att vara kreativ med ord och hämtar inspiration från naturen, vetenskapen, spiritualism och konst. Att skriva är något hon verkligen tycker om och även om det fanns år då hon inte hade skrivit lämnade det henne verkligen aldrig, med konstiga texter här och där. Nu använder hon sin fritid till att skriva mer regelbundet i sin skissbok. Hon älskar friheten att klottra utan linjer eller regler och låta sin penna prata. Pratibha planerar redan sin nästa poesibok. Att fokusera på temat mindfulnesskonst och inre välbefinnande, något som började i hennes första bok, Tangles + Knots och fick hennes konstverk att blomstra igen.

This was a lovely and moving read. I loved the cover and blurb of this book. I felt for jo. Poor little Reba. I did like the illustrations. In one Reba looked so sad. I just wanted to jump in and hug Reba and Jo. I loved the pic of Reba and Byron. So cute. Thank you for writing this book. Such a moving and real story. So well written. From the heart. Highly recommend this book.

This was such a heart wrenching, but inspiring true story of Jo and her dog Reba - and it really spoke of the absolute love and dedication as well as the beautiful relationship that Jo has with her pet.
Now, I say pet, but quite honestly, I'm an animal lover myself and really do think of my cats as part of our family, with their own little personalities.
We talk to them, care for them and literally treat them like Kings and Queens.
This is why this story really was an emotional read for me.

When Reba ran into a tree at full speed and broke her neck, things were really not looking good for her future.
But, we watch as Jo puts everything she has into not only healing and rehabilitating Reba physically, but also creating stability and emotional security for both of them.

Reviews

I literally did not raise my head as soon as I started this book, dog are so special, unconditional love, a best friend and always pleased to see you it doesn’t matter whether it’s a few minutes or much longer since you’ve seen them.
I felt every emotion in this book, not a long read but you could feel everything in the way it was written.
I love my dog he’s not a pet he’s not art of my family I cannot imagine anything like this happening.
Such a great read

I must admit I was a little worried going into this read about how sad it would make me and while it is a moving story, above all it is one of dedication and hope.
It is written in a journal style which chronicles the first 5 months of Reba’s recovery after running head first into a tree and breaking her neck.
Jo dedicates her life to and savings to rehabilitating her beloved dog. She provides stability, ongoing care and full time emotional support to Reba which is truly admirable.
I have 2 cats and a dog myself and while I love them dearly this book really made me reflect on what I would do in a similar situation. Thankfully I don’t have to make that decision and hope I never will.
Jo and Reba’s journey is truly inspirational and I am full of admiration at Jo’s unwavering dedication, love and belief that Reba can enjoy a great quality of life despite still having many obstacles yet to overcome.

This story is both heartbreaking and inspiring and a must for any pet owner. I'm not sure who is the bravest - Jo or Reba but Jo was committed to doing her very best for her lovely girl and her determination is paying off.

- Janis Dalton

This was such a heartwarming story that really resounded with me as I’ve been through trauma and recovery with a treasured pet myself. Reba, Jo Sellers’s much loved dog breaks her neck in a freak accident. The book is about her long, hard road to recovery and the complete devotion of her owner. Jo gave up ever To nurse Reba. As a dog trainer, she had experience with dogs but nothing had prepared her for the sacrifices she would have to make for Reba. The story is honest and packed with so many emotions. It’s a testimony to the love between pets and their humans and to the dedicated, hard working veterinary medics who worked so hard to save Reba and help her recover.
