It is an honor to feel that much, to have loved that much. It teaches you compassion, gratitude, resilience, and the importance of grabbing life by…See More

The Wheels on (My Grief) Bus Go Round and Round...
New Year - 2025!At the start of the year I returned to Thailand for another medical mission. This was my fourth trip for this and I was somewhat ready/prepared for the heightened emotions.

Strangely, the same levels of emotionality were not there. Not…See More

He had been there since the end of 2008, after being diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's disease in 2006 and deteriorating quickly. He was only 58 when…See More
