Advocacy, Access, and Movement for the Silenced.
I guess I should have posted this a while ago. I’ve read all the comments to my BLOG posts, but I haven’t figured out yet, how to respond to them. I need to get Celia to show me how it’s done. Believe me, I love to get them. I’m like a kid on Christmas, checking…
That’s crazy! People are actually spending big money, to buy virtual real estate on the internet. They are also spending hours of their time, developing virtual lives, building houses, and accumulating virtual property, like cars and furniture, to what end? Like any video game, it will lose its appeal, when the next new, hot thing…
It’s 5: 21 in the morning. I’m awakened because my condom catheter has failed. Causing me essentially, to wet my bed. It’s not easy for a 61-year-old to admit to wetting the bed, but a lot of things have changed for me in the past 11 months. I have had to resolve myself to excepting…
Anniversary The one-year anniversary of my stroke is bittersweet. On September 22nd of last year, I began a journey, not by choice, that would become a struggle, which would easily become the most difficult of my life. Challenges, that would question, my very will to go on living. The pain and discomfort, I would eventually,…

We all need to be accountable, for our actions. Telling an outright lie, especially when that lie will get another person in trouble, it is simply wrong on many levels. I say this, because recently a very good friend, relayed a story about how she had helped a man, only to have that man, completely…
I don’t know how the topic came up, but my Dad once told a story, while we sat around the table, at my grandparents, one Thanksgiving holiday, of the bathhouses he used to use as a young man. It wasn’t until high school that their home had the luxury of indoor plumbing! I was astonished,…
Something I was watching, made me think of the fact, that there are people who will never enjoy the beauty of a snowy day. Or never see the magnificence, of an ocean sunset. And will live their entire lives, but never know the beauty and tranquility, of a lush green forest, on a warm summer’s…
As mentioned in a previous BLOG, I am working on a book. I thought I would share my introduction with my loyal BedHead’s! I thought I was going to die! Both from what I’ve been told, and what I’ve read, I should have. It was September 22, 2021, and I had a massive brain stem…
