You move away tomorrow. Not to go away to college or to go away for church camp, but to start your career and your adult life. LORD willing, this time next year you will be through the Police Academy and starting as a Rookie Police Officer. Other than (hopefully) the occasional overnight stay for holidays,… Continue reading Dear Daniel,
This tree in the parking lot of Kroger took my breath away today. I looked like a weirdo taking 1000 pics. I've struggled with how to put this story into words. If you grew up in a house like mine, you learned never to talk about good news because bad news was usually just around… Continue reading Miracle.
***TRIGGER WARNING*** If you have claustrophobia or have never had an MRI, this is not the post for you. I have better posts on MRIs for you (just search MRI in the search bar). This one is not suitable for anyone about to get their first MRI. I don’t want to unnecessarily fill you with… Continue reading MRI Panic Attack
Grief is weird. Can we all agree? Just when I think I’ve unpacked and healed from trauma long ago, something small triggers it and I find myself spending hours grieving, unpacking, and laying it all down at the feet of Jesus all over again. I don’t know what grief you carry. But just know, if… Continue reading Grief

I want to reach the end of my life, having shared in the sufferings of Christ and… Continue reading Thoughts.
***DISCLAIMER*** I do not have a medical degree (shocker), so I cannot give you sound medical advice. I can only share my experience and encourage you to talk to your doctors if you have concerns. There is no substitute for amazing doctors. Also, TMI warning. I will be talking a lot about breasts. On Friday,… Continue reading Breast Surgery
As I've gotten older, one thing I've learned is to lean into people I trust to tell me what I need to hear, whether I like it or not. Don't misunderstand, there will always be people who want to tell you what to do and they won't always be people you trust... Make sure you… Continue reading Control Freak
It’s all about your perspective—how you look at a situation. Your point of view. On September 29, 2015, this was my point of view. I had just been told I had a life-long debilitating disease for which there is no cure. The neurologist who diagnosed me had attempted to comfort me by saying, “it’s not… Continue reading Perspective

Thankful I can smell coffee (mostly) again. Thankful for the prayers and encouragement from all of you. Today will be the last day of COVID Chronicles. I’m thankful my… Continue reading COVID Chronicles – Day 15
