  • A Mrs. Missing

    I am happy to report I have been very busy. God is blessing me with more work! I have been reading your messages but I’m crazy busy. I have had many spells, day and night, of crying uncontrollably. I miss my husband so much. I miss my body before ALS. I miss feeling beautiful the…

  • Grace Overload

    In my mind today, I am still exhausted from last Saturday. It was the annual Autumn March for ALS. This was the 9th year for the race and my 13th year of living with ALS. I am so, so blessed to have been given longer than the average 3-5 years. I have tried my very…

  • Bucket Lists

    Bucket List In my mind today, I am thinking about “Bucket Lists.” When my body began betraying me in 2011, I felt that it was only going to progress. Why? I had an aunt who started falling at the age of 38, her legs would give out underneath her without warning. She became so weak…

  • Where is Sal the ALS Gal?

    Where is Sal the ALS Gal? In my mind, I have been so busy. I am still working on spreading the Light and Love to my corner of the world. September was so tough. I lost three weeks to the nastiest sinus infection I’ve ever had coupled with ALS. It took a toil on me.…

  • Gethsemane Days

    In my mind, I am still enjoying Easter. Students, it is the fourth week of Easter and life here in Tennessee is bursting with rebirth. It is also rising from the earth. Have you discovered all of the trees bursting with colorful blooms? Last week we read St. Stephen in Acts of the Apostles 6:…
