Faith of the Condemned

At the behest of the German government, more than six million Jews were systematically exterminated, in addition to at least four million additional "undesirables," including Roma, homosexuals, political prisoners, Russians, criminals, the mentally challenged, etc.

Consider the plight of European Jews. They were not expelled from society, forced to change their religion or given an injection to speed their way into a painless death. Deemed an “inferior race,” they were… Continue

Special Dream Nov 4th Intervew on the radio

Yesterday I was interviewed on the radio that will air on Sunday, Nov 8th on a local FM station called WASH FM. The host was Lori Brooks and she has a program on Sunday mornings (early) called "Women of Vision" and the interview went well. I was on her show just over a year ago and afterwards there was a big spike on the web site and I also got a call from this nice gentleman who told me to call this lady, because he knew she had a special dream. I did and it's one of my favorite stories in the… Continue

Special Dream - The Loss of a Child

My deepest condolances go out to John Travolta and Kelly Preston, who lost their 16 year old son, Jett nine months ago. And to all parents who have lost a child. A parent never gets over this loss, as it is the deepest wound a heart can suffer.

Former President Bush and wife Barabara lost their daughter when she was a little girl to cancer and Academy Award Winning Actor, Cliff Robertson lost a grown daughter too. Cancer is a terrible disease, and we all need to fight it, which is… Continue

Special Dream - The Dream regarding a Miscarriage

There were many things I learned (when reaching out to others) regarding their special dream experience that was very different from my own experience. One topic in particular, that really stood out, were the stories from women who had miscarried a child and then saw the baby later on in a special dream. Here is one of the stories that was sent to me and I hope this helps other women who have gone through this loss.

Introduction: I had gotten married in August 1988, and it was almost… Continue

Special Dream Book - The Journey Begins

My book comes out in just a few weeks and it has taken me over two years to get here. What I have found is that the book, (which I know I was suppose to write after ten years of researching and not finding any answers to my own experience) is taking me on a journey and so I thought it would be good to share what I have learned along the way.

Not only did I find out more about this dream experience by interviewing over 300 people but also in the last year by taking my book across the… Continue

Who wants to help me change the world for the better?

After university I got my dream job, working with horses. All was going well until December 1994 when my life changed forever. Crossing the road on the way to work, I was hit by a car... I 'died'! Since being hit by that car I went through a period of great change and learnt many things; I had experiences I did not understand and saw things mankind maybe should not see. I started writing these things down. I will never preach to anyone, but what started as an autobiography about my life, my… Continue

an excerpt from my current work

Bowing curtly, the great wolf left the dragons to their celebration. Skool followed the crystal spring whose green-blue waters flowed through the deep valley. His keen maize eyes watched the minions of Death go about their business. They kept busy harvesting the souls of the newly departed. Each servant hung shimmering globes on an eternally expanding row of vines and bushes. Skool studied every sphere and the soul it contained. The wolf knew well the shimmering hues of Death and its goddess… Continue

A Partner in Healing

Yesterday, I buried a dear patient.

I am a family nurse practitioner and not a stranger to death, but like many health care providers, I have viewed the death of a patient as a failure. Not this time. Karen taught me how to let go. How to accept. How to truly partner with my patients. Thank you, Karen, for the gift of your life and for the gift of your dis-ease that bonded us. Thank you for the grace of your death.

On the morning of her death, I felt Karen—like a bubble of… Continue

Everyone should almost die at least once

I spent years planning to write, thinking about writing, and talking about writing. What I didn't do for a very long time was actually write. What gave me the kick I needed to get me going? I almost died.

I was watching the X-Files one Sunday night, eating a brand of crisps that I'm not going to name, for fear of being sued (the reason will become clear as I go on), when I began to heat up. My lower legs began to itch, so I scratched them. Then my upper legs began to itch... my lower… Continue
