I’m turning 30 in just under a month
I try to always set New Years Resolutions. I do it mostly for fun but this January is a milestone for me. I’ll be turning 30. I know 30 doesn’t seem old to many people, but I thought I’d be further along than I am. I feel like I’m right back at 19. I’m working…

I spent 6 years searching for a diagnosis
For my 6 year old. As of today, I officially have one. It was given first back when she was a tiny baby in the NICU but I went into denial. She went through hell for over a year. She was in NICU for 8 months, had 4 surgeries (2 heart caths to close 2…

I never chose my spiritual path, it chose me.
This is going to be slightly different from the posts I have made in the past. This is about how I found my spiritual path. From as far back as i can remember, I have had some beliefs set in stone- karma/Dharma and reincarnation being two of the main. I was raised in the church,…

I introduced the EDS, This is about my life with OCD

When my oldest was little, she was easy to take care of. She was cautious, well behaved in public to the point where we got complemented on her behaviour. I stayed home for 4 years with her and hardly had to clean up messes from her. She also listened to “no” and quit the first…

How I found out about EDS.
From the time I was little, I always remember walking around with what felt like a bad sprained ankle. I was always twisting it, so I had no idea it wasn’t sprained. I also have hips rotated backwards, so my feet and knees stick out to the side. I could never run very well. I’d…

Being a taboo parent- I don’t want sympathy. I just want to be able to talk about all my kids.
Being a special needs parent shouldn’t be as isolating nor as awkward as it is. If you have been through a long term nicu stay, it should not be met with awkward sympathy nor should it automatically shut other parents up. I mean, yes, back when I was living at nationwide children’s hospital alone with…

Sometimes dreaming is too personal and too close to home in it’s message for even the most talented interpreter to interpret. That is normally where those of us who offer our services come in. I have yet to be told a dream I couldn’t interpret, until now. I had a strange dream last night and…
