    Thumbnail Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto thee. Genesis 13:17 He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk. Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up [...]

    Thumbnail alison wrote a new blog post: Stream-of-Consciousness

    This is the part of my blogging journey when I step back and think, “Is this what I really wanted?” So far I haven’t written about anything I’d been planning on writing about. Ideally, I wanted each of my entries to be like a mini Malcolm Gladwell essay; revealing startling, counterintuitive [...]

    ThumbnailToday I walked ten whole feet!!!  It was only my second time walking in over a year! It is something that for a long time I was afraid to even pray for.  But with a lot of prayer recently, I’ve come to realize that with a lot of faith in both myself and in God, anything is [...]

    Still have the nausea. Reminded of someone who knows my pain:
    (Guiseppe Zangara let’s out a wail of agony)

    John Wilkes Booth : You know you really ought to do something about that stomach.

    Zangara (heavy Italian accent): (enraged) I do everything about the stomach!
    Booth: ( still calm) Oh yes?
    Zangara: I give up wine. No [...]

    Having a chronic illness can rob you of your independence.  Suddenly you find yourself dependent on other people to do basic things you had always taken for granted, and this changes your relationships forever. Before I got sick I was a super independent person.  I always preferred to do things on my [...]

    ThumbnailThrough my chronic illness, I have come to realize how crucial it is to have faith.  When most people think of the word “faith” they think religion, but there are so many other aspects to keeping faith alive in your life through dark and difficult times.  In fact, the word “faith” is merely defined as “confidence [...]

    Paradoxically-but anyone who has been seriously ill can tell you this-whatever ghosts inhabit your psyche become most fierce when you are physically weak. I am never casual about dressing. But when [...]

    Thumbnail Freedom is something that is often taken for granted. Freedom comes in a lot of different varieties and all are often taken lightly until you don’t have that freedom anymore.  Until I got sick I took so many very personal freedoms for granted.  I especially took for granted the freedom to move around  where I want [...]
