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!

Independence Day

One Nation, Under God.
July 4, 1776

My day will be spent at Six Flags in Gurnee, IL.  We are celebrating my niece's 12th birthday.  I get to hang with my youngest niece and her friend while the others go on the big kid rides!

It promises to be a great day.

Enjoy this.  It's the live performance of igNight @ Six Flags Great America, Gurneee, IL.
