A note from the author:
About five years ago, according to my doctor, Parkinson's Disease began its slow, degenerative dance in my brain. When I was diagnosed two years ago, I reassured my family as best I could that everything would be fine, had a good long cry, and then found that I had more strength than I thought possible.
That strength was found by turning to my faith in God, my loving family and my Lutheran school co-workers for support. Having found a wonderful doctor to trust with my care, I set out on this new and uncertain journey, following a path I never wanted to tread. Along the way, my faith found a voice in the devotionals that I write and, astonishingly, through a song that I collaborated on (that is a story for another page, friends).
While none of us know what tomorrow will bring, I have decided that in the face of an unknown future I no longer have the luxury of waiting until I "have time" to write, to photograph, to sew, to garden, to teach; to fully employ and enjoy the abilities God has so generously given me. Thank you for visiting this site and allowing me to share my love of God with you. I pray that my words will bring a smile to your lips and a faith-boost to your heart.
Wishing you all God's richest blessings, Elizabeth elizabeth@imallshookup.com
