  • Brain Fog

    in ,

    I’, going to try an experiment. Not sure if it will work or not. I’m going to attempt to demonstrate brain fog. Brain fog often affects people with Myasthenia Gtavis. I’m nt sure why it happens or what causes it. All I know is I get it when I’m extrmeely tired or wornout. Althought it…

  • Back to Normal

    Hurricane Francine paid us a visit. A quite memorable visit, I might add. I’ll provide more details later, but I wanted to let you know we are safe and things are getting back to normal. The one good thing about hurricanes (if there is one) is you usually get several days’ notice so you can…

  • A Bit of Yourself – Part 2

    In my last blog, I mentioned the Santa tradition my wife and I have with our daughters. Today I’m going to tell you a little more about that tradition. It all started 18 years ago when my daughters were in college. My wife and I had become empty-nesters and weren’t enjoying it. We began thinking…

  • A Bit of Yourself – Part 1

    Here we go again. Another multi-part blog. It’s not because I’m trying to draw you in and then leave you hanging like an episode of “Game of Thrones”. It’s because I’m too wordy. I’ve not yet learned the art of brevity and I can’t fit all my thoughts into a single blog. It also means…

  • News

    As I pondered the subject for today’s blog, I briefly reviewed the headlines of the news going on in the world. There’s tragedy everywhere. Nearly every single headline had to do with something terrible. Doesn’t anything good ever happen? As I thought about this for a while, I realized good things happen all the time;…

For those who are caregivers, family or friends of someone with MG, I strongly encourage you to check out this website, as well. It’s…

  • MG Awareness

    I’ve received several questions about what you can do to help promote awareness for Myasthenia Gravis. If you notice the photo on my website, you’ll see some of the things my family and friends did to support me during Myasthenia Gravis Awareness Month last June. That photo still brings me tears. Let me first say…

  • Happiness and Sadness: Why We Need Both

    Greg Olsen

    in ,

    I once heard an analogy about happiness. It said happiness is like putting clean sheets on your bed. You enjoy clean sheets and it feels good when you’re in them, but sooner or later they’re going to get dirty and you’re going to need to rewash them. Achieving happiness isn’t about staying happy; it’s about…

  • Nothing

    I don’t know if you’re a Seinfeld fan, but I always enjoyed watching that show. I still enjoy watching the reruns. It was a show about “nothing”. It was supposed to be about whatever happened that day. Now, of course we know each episode had a theme and the characters played toward a certain topic,…

  • Walking In Love

    Happy Labor Day! You’re probably expecting a message having to do with labor, or the holiday, or something in between. That would probably make sense, but I’m actually writing this on Sunday and something occurred this morning that made such an impact on me that I thought I needed to share. So, Happy Labor Day,…
