About This Blog

My blog shares my recovery journey from childhood abuse to living with mental illness. I've been involved in twelve step groups and therapy since 1982. I accepted Jesus as my Savior in 1988. To the best of my ability, I have followed where He wants me to go and what He wants me to do. Maybe you'll find the hope and strength you need through what I write. Maybe you want to stop hurting yourself. Maybe you have a friend who needs help and can benefit from my story. I was newly disabled when I asked God this question: "What do you want me to do with my life?" I closed my eyes and paused for a few moments to still my mind. This is what I sensed from Him: "Amy, I want you to write your story to bring hope and healing to those who are still suffering." And that's exactly what I am doing!

Aaron Tribute Video

After Aaron's funeral, we were given a CD that had family photos of him on it. 

Over the years I had collected some of my own.

I decided to make a video in remembrance of him.  Something that would last a lifetime.

But what song would I use?

Many years ago my dad gave my sister's and I a copy of Rod Stewart's song, "Forever Young."  I listened to it.  It was perfect.
