  • 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…

  • 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…

  • Saturday Story “Cards”

    Well I am two weeks behind this Saturday challenge. I am going to ” kill two birds with one stone ” and use it as a blog post. I have been holding it in my mind and heart; I hope you enjoy it. In my mind, I have been thinking about cards. When we did…

  • Magic Umbrella #3

    “Tom?” Petrified! My heart felt like I just completed a heptathlon. He looked the same except for the pepper gray hair and beard. “Remember that note you gave me written in crayon?” he asked. “The poem about the magic umbrella?” “Yes.”

  • 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!…

  • Autumn March Awards Day

    In my body and mind, I have been discombobulated! I have had hard decisions to make in my life living with ALS. God has given me bonus years and kept me busy. I know the research is helping us, ALS patients, live longer and next we pray for a cure. It takes so many people…

  • 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…

  • 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…
