The Power of Greif – A New Chapter
It’s a source of regret that I never had the opportunity to share my blog with Mom. Among the many things mom won’t see, this one stings particularly because I am certain she would have taken great pride in it. During those periods when her health permitted, she devoted countless hours to her own writing…

The Engagement-Grief & Happiness
Yes, you read that right! The day finally came; my boyfriend got down on a knee and asked me if I’d spend the rest of my life with him. It was a special moment I’ll hold and cherish forever. It was weird, but in a wonderful way, and it was overwhelming, but in a peaceful…

How to Help Kid’s With Sick Parents-Mom’s Cancer Story-Fighting Melanoma
We’re at the hospital again. Mom had a seizure and fell in the kitchen this morning. This was her second seizure, except this time wasn’t because she didn’t refill her meds.

An explanation/demonstration of why cheap grace/hyper-faith has ruined my family. For all of my life since day one, my family has had two options.

He Did It Again-The God Who Moves Mountains-Mom’s Cancer Story-Gag Me With A Spoon Why Don’t You?
I’m sorry for such a delayed post. You’re all probably hating me right now. Mom made it through, she’s okay. The surgery went according to plan, no mess ups. Doctors were worried and prepared us for the possibility of her not leaving the table. God gave us another miracle. On day one, after surgery, Mom…

Final Option-Mom’s 4th Brain Surgery-The Whole World Crumbles
I’ve been counting down the hours. We’ve hit literal rock bottom. At 1:30 they begin our last option. I’m not trembling. I’m not shaking with fear. I’m not a crumbling weeping mess. My Nana is of course, but I’m not. How I’m not, I’ll never understand. This is the most important thing to me. This…

How to Fantasize College and Building Your Life-THAT Girl Confidence
What would you do with your time if you could do whatever you wanted? A lady asked me this question the other day. Sometimes you just want to leave work at 10:00 am. Leaving when everyone else is starting because you woke up four hours before they did and clocking hours doesn’t matter. Going to…
