I needed that experience. My heart has been heavy. My burdens have felt overwhelming. While answers haven’t come about the path forward for our family or for my son, that moment reminded me God is close. And if He can help someone else through me, it is enough at this moment.

Well, we were recently diagnosed with autism.
A Dark Tunnel
I was welcomed into a new world of mental health this week.
How did I do this week? December 10, 2023
So, I have felt mostly in tune with things spiritual, but I did have one strange experience this week. My wife struggles with a condition called trigeminal neuralgia. She developed it after a second bout with shingles. I remember when it first developed. Wow, talk about a difficult time. She was in so much pain she basically closed off the world including me and the kids. This condition started about 10 years ago. Over the last few weeks, she has been expressing that the condition has been “firing.” Firing is her term for it because it relates to how it feels. Sharp bursts of electrical shocks in her face.
