It's a journal. It's a devotional. It's a record of a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) survivor. It's documentation of God's activities in real time. There are good days and bad, happy times and sad... I tell it like it is. This is an unscripted walk along the meandering paths of my mind. My life has never been dull... and I've never known boredom. Read on, you'll see...

I am a happily married mother and grandmother of a large family. I've also had several careers including writer, teacher, trucker, investment and finance advisor, web master and artist. I am an ordained minister (not to the pulpit) and consider my calling to Christ's service my most important role in life.

Going Home

Written Later from Memory, Notes and Planner

Debbie and Ed need to leave but were around long enough to help get their dad moved to his apartment. The oxygen is all set up and the day went off without a hitch.

Donnie seems strong but I fear he is doing too much. After his kids leave, he goes out and rummages through his van. He's a bit irritable when I suggest he not do that because he's moving heavier things than he should handle.

Later in the night, he awakens me and wordlessly points to his blood-soaked T-shirt. Of course, then we did the 911 thing and spent most of the rest of the night in the ER.

It could have been so much worse! God is ever good.
