  • Women and Men of Good Will

    In my mind, I have been so busy with a head full of dreams. Dreams of rescuing children suffering in an America full of resources, but failing to clothe, feed, shelter the most vulnerable and valuable in our society, the widows (elderly) and orphans (from neglect from addiction not just substances but also the ego…

  • What a Life!

    In my mind today I am so happy. I want to share yesterday with you. Let’s look at a day in the ALS life. On Saturdays I stay in bed until early afternoon. I give my troops, my caregivers (Abbey and Andy) time to get up slowly. As soon as one of them wakes up,…

  • In my bones

    In my mind lately I’ve made a big mistake. I have taken my eyes and mind inward. I have allowed the pity party of this earthly life to take my focus from what really matters in one’s life. Students in the back row, it’s not “The all about Me Show.” Trying desperately to fulfill your…

  • Helpless

    In my mind today, I have so many sad thoughts and feelings. I don’t want to leave my bed. I am trying desperately to outrun ALS, but I am in another valley. There seems to be no more outs to pull me through this. I know it’s different this time because I NEVER want to…

  • Anti-Christ Culture

    In my mind today, I am thinking about how blessed I am. To be able to have a purpose for God and the ability to share the messages of Him is my purpose until I get to the Spiritual season. Because of amazing children and Hospice care, the future’s so bright, I gotta wear shades!…

  • Our Hour

    John 7:30 His hour had not yet come.  In my mind, I have been thinking about the D-word. As soon as we are born we begin to die, like a light bulb. My husband’s wise father used to say this. It is true. Lifespans have always varied depending on access to resources, genetic dispositions, and…

  • Transfigure Our Hearts

    Out of my body and into my mind, I am thinking about Lent. This was the second Sunday of Lent. It’s that time of year again to rededicate ourselves as followers of Jesus. Examine your hearts to see what drives your own behaviors. Sin is so slithery. It will slither in and become a habit.…

  • Embrace the Gift

    In my mind this past week, I have been busy. Monday was our Bible Study Christmas get together sharing time and conversation and prayers. This little group has been gathering together for at least four years, possibly longer. We’ve lost a few and added a few but we are still studying Emmanuel and searching to…

  • 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.…
