As a parent, I can’t imagine my child facing a health issue that puts his life at risk. Even as the parent of an adult child, there is a neverending feeling of responsibility to fix or correct things. Knowing that this health issue is far beyond your ability to correct must fill a parent with an overwhelming sense of helplessness. And unfortunately, that is what a dear friend of my family faces on Monday. Her…
True bravery comes not in the struggle but when it is over. The temptation is strong to remain in the difficulty yet it is ignored.

Tuesday marked the 10th anniversary of my maternal grandmother’s death. I couldn’t have asked for a better grandmother though I didn’t always appreciate just how lucky I was to have somebody love me as much as Nana did. She often would give me what she would call “love pats” and sometimes I would catch her just looking at me. I used to think she was nuts with all the affection but looking back, I understand…

Each of us is but a tiny, tiny piece of this world that we all share. But every single one of us is an equally essential part of humanity. I am one, you are one, each person on the planet is one and only one. No one is more important or lesser than any other one. No one person is expected to or responsible for changing the entire world. However, each of us is expected…
As a parent, there is nothing worse than the thought of your child facing a serious health crisis. Your job is to care for this tiny person, this piece of you that is everything good in your heart and soul. No parent hesitates for a second to utter the words, please take me, just not my child. Every parent would gladly say goodbye and exhale that one last breath knowing their child will live on…
