Ring in the Trash
Today a friend told me about a “God Sighting” she had. On Sunday, she was getting ready for church and took off her ring to put on lotion. The ring is made from a diamond that belonged to her grandmother. At church, she realized she didn’t have the ring on and made a mental note […]
Remembering Progress
My mom has been getting dizzy on and off again. We were happy to be able to get into our favorite physical therapist who has helped her in the past. The last time we saw her was about a year ago. At that time, my mom had come out of the hospital and rehab. The […]
Making Phone Calls
My mom gave her new phone a good workout today. We practiced checking messages a couple of times. Then my brother called. Both my mom and dad were fascinated with the captions as they could read the words that my brother was saying. A little later, my mom called a neighbor and left a message. […]
Not All There Is
The scripture I read today was about Mary of Magdala’s encounter with the risen Jesus Christ. Then I read the beautiful meditation written by Bishop Robert Barron.

Mom Found God
As I was thinking about what to write tonight, I asked my mom where she found God today. We chuckled a little, because she had a really difficult time at Mass this morning. She struggled to find the readings, couldn’t find the songs in the hymnal, and couldn’t hear the priest. There was also a […]
Yesterday’s Tomorrow
The other day when my mom went to the neurologist, he tested her cognition. One of the “brain teasers” he gave her was: If today is Thursday, what is the day before the day after tomorrow? And then the other way: What is the day after the day before yesterday? She really struggled with those […]
Finally Found Physician
Today we finally got my mom in to see a new neurologist. We had seen and heard him a couple of times at the Parkinson’s support group. He spent a good amount of time with her asking questions and doing tests. We came armed with some questions, but he answered almost all of them without […]
