    Make A Difference Minute: A Library Without Limits

    On this Make a Difference Minute, I have Charlotte Goodman, children’s coordinator at the Leighton Public Library and Civic Center, as she shares how the library is opening young minds to a world of possibilities. For children growing up in a rural community, opportunities to experience different places and cultures can sometimes be limited. That’s why Charlotte and the library created “Leighton’s International Airport,” complete with passports, TSA officers, visits to countries around the world, international food samples, and even a globe for each child who completed the journey. The inspiration behind the experience came in part from Leighton native and former professional basketball player Leon Douglas. Charlotte remembers hearing him share how, as a young boy, he would crawl under the covers with a flashlight and a map, point to places around the world, and dream of someday visiting them. Through books, those faraway places became real to him long before he ever had the opportunity to travel. Charlotte wants the children of Leighton to understand that same powerful lesson. Where you come from doesn’t determine how far you can go, and the books inside a library can open doors to an entire world waiting to be discovered.

    Make A Difference Minute: Facing the Unknown Together

    On this Make a Difference Minute, I have firefighter Brett Thomas as he shares his brother Jamey’s unexpected journey after what first appeared to be a routine medical emergency. When Jamey suffered a seizure in May, his family had no idea it would lead to the discovery of a brain tumor. Brett immediately left work to be with his family, helping care for Jamey’s young daughter while his sister-in-law remained at the hospital. Following surgery, Jamey began the difficult process of recovering from weakness on his right side and challenges with speech. While those abilities are steadily improving through therapy, further testing revealed that the tumor was more serious than doctors first believed. Jamey was diagnosed with a grade 3 astrocytoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer. Jamey's story is a reminder that life’s biggest battles often arrive without warning, but no one should have to face them alone. Through faith, family, friends, and the support of a caring community, hope continues to shine even in the face of uncertainty.

    More Than Books: Building Community at the Leighton Public Library

    From birthday celebrations for America’s 250th anniversary to international travel adventures without ever leaving town, the Leighton Public Library and Civic Center is redefining what a community library can be. On tonight’s special on-location edition of The Mark White Show, I sit down with Library Director Miranda Ball and Children’s Coordinator Charlotte Goodman to talk about inspiring children to read, serving families through innovative programs, partnering with the Food Bank of North Alabama, preserving local history, and creating a place where everyone feels welcome. Their passion for helping others is evident in everything they do, from summer reading adventures and educational activities to assisting residents with job applications, housing paperwork, and everyday needs. It’s a conversation about service, community, and the power of people working together to make a lasting difference. Real stories. Real people. Real impact. News That Unites!™️

    Make A Difference Minute: Teaching Fire Safety Through Storytelling

    On this Make a Difference Minute, I have Russellville firefighter and EMT Alejandro Wallace as he shares how a passion for protecting lives led him to write the children’s book, A Day at the Fire Station with Dad. As a firefighter, Alejandro has seen firsthand the importance of fire prevention and education. Some of his most rewarding moments have come when children recognize him and say they remembered what firefighters taught them in school and were able to use that knowledge when it mattered. The inspiration for his book came even closer to home. As his young daughter began asking questions and exploring the world around her, Alejandro realized that a story could capture her attention in a way a lecture never could. That idea became a book designed to help children learn fire safety in a fun, engaging, and memorable way. His goal is to equip children with knowledge that could one day save a life. You can find A Day at the Fire Station with Dad on Amazon or follow Wallace Bookshelf on Facebook.

    Make A Difference Minute: Living Beyond the Pain

    On this Make a Difference Minute, I have Dr. Larry Charleston IV, a board-certified neurologist and headache medicine specialist, as he discusses the challenges of treating migraine disease and cluster headaches. Migraine disease affects an estimated 43 million Americans, while cluster headaches, though much rarer, are considered among the most painful neurological conditions. Dr. Charleston explains that one of the biggest challenges is making sure patients receive the correct diagnosis. Without it, finding an effective treatment becomes much more difficult. He also points out that many people with migraine experience severe nausea and vomiting, making it hard for oral medications to stay down long enough to provide relief. That's why having treatment options tailored to a patient's specific needs is so important. Dr. Charleston's goal is simple: to help people move beyond simply managing their symptoms and instead achieve the best possible quality of life.

    Hope for Migraine & Cluster Headache

    Nearly 43 million Americans live with migraine, and thousands more experience the intense pain of cluster headaches. These neurological conditions can interrupt careers, family life, and everyday routines, yet many patients continue searching for treatments that provide effective relief. On this episode of The Mark White Show, I’m talking with Dr. Larry Charleston IV, a nationally recognized neurologist and headache medicine specialist, to discuss the challenges of treating migraine and cluster headaches, common misconceptions about these conditions, and the importance of expanding treatment options for patients. Dr. Charleston also shares information about Brekiya®, the first FDA-approved dihydroergotamine (DHE) autoinjector for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura and the acute treatment of cluster headaches in adults. Learn how this self-administered treatment works, who it may benefit, and why early treatment can make a meaningful difference. To learn more, visit www.brekiya.com. Real stories. Real people.
