IN THIS VIDEO:
JUNE 22- 26, 2024

I HAD A VERY SPECIAL AND SOMEWHAT SPIRITUAL OPPORTUNITY TO WITNESS AN ENTIRE FAMILY OF 5 BARRED OWLS RIGHT IN MY BACK YARD. FOR SEVERAL DAYS AFTER I FIRST SPIED THEM IN THE TREES BEHIND THE HOUSE, IT FELT LIKE THEY WERE WATCHING ME.

BUT THEN AS QUICKLY AS THEY APPEARED, THEY LEFT. AND I HAVE NOT SEEN AN OWL SINCE. IT WAS BEAUTIFUL.

I'M DEALING WITH ODD FEELINGS, ANXIETY, LACK OF FOCUS, TRIGGERS, AND JUST DEEP DEEP SADNESS. I'M TRYING TO COPE, BUT IT IS HARD TO EVEN CONCENTRATE ON SIMPLE THINGS. I'M TRYING. I JUST MISS DANIEL SO SO SO MUCH.

WEATHER, AND NATURE SEEM TO BE ORGANIC AND CALMING FOR ME. SO I JUST LEAN INTO THAT.

I LOVE YOU GUYS. THIS IS SO HARD.

Welcome to my channel...

We lost our beloved Daniel on January 12, 2024. Stay with me as I work through grief and finding purpose. It is early days. And very hard.

Adapting. Thriving. Changing. Growing. Facing the unknown every waking day. This is my story, and I hope that you find encouragement, community, friendship here. A journey of life with a child who was born with severe disabilities, and how we are making our way through the ups and downs.

Daniel was born with a rare condition called Polymicrogyria. It was caused by the virus, CMV (cytomegalovirus). Daniel has extensive medical problems and disabilities, but we have created a loving support structure for him, and the 5 of us, and our pets, find lots of joy and love. A very unique family dynamic for sure!
