    I love this time of year. The weather gets cooler. People start displaying their Halloween decorations. It’s soup, chili and gumbo time! Here’s a Halloween joke for you: A man is walking home on a dark, spooky night when he hears a tap, tap, tap behind him. He turns around but doesn’t see anything. Feeling…

  • Encouragement

    One of my goals in writing this blog is to provide encouragement for others with Myasthenia Gravis or any other chronic condition. It’s also to encourage caregivers, family and friends who help us battle MG. Encouragement is so important. It’s easy to get down when you have a chronic condition like MG. When you wake…

    The other day I went outside to get the mail and saw some people taking photos at the lake across the street from our house. As I looked closer, I realized it was our neighbors. They had just finished taking photos and began to walk back across the street towards me. Their two sons are…

    This seems like a joke day. An old man was fishing on the bank of his favorite fishing hole when suddenly, he heard a voice say, “Hey, you!”. Somewhat startled, the man looked around, but didn’t see anyone. A few minutes later, he heard the voice again, but this time it said, “Hey, I’m talking…

    I recently read that Amy Grant, the famous singer, starts her day with the following short prayer: “Lord, lead me today to those I need, and those that need me.“ Those words struck me as being rather profound. I’m going to need others today. I’m sure of that. Whether it be for physical help, encouragement…

    Sometimes I catch myself thinking about “My” world. What I mean by that is there is so much going on in this world, some of which will affect me, but doesn’t necessarily involve me, yet I tend to focus on the tiny little sphere around me. I sometimes allow myself to focus only on me.…

  • Nutrition

    Nutrition plays such an important role in our lives that I thought we’d talk a little about how nutrition applies to a person with Myasthenia Gravis. Let me start by disclaiming I am not a nutritionist. In fact, I can’t even really call myself a healthy eater. I try to be, but I find convenience…

  • Sharing is Caring

    We’ve been talking about a lot of heavy stuff lately, so I think it’s time for a joke. A man was driving down a country road and saw a farmhouse with a sign out front that said, “Talking Dog for Sale”. Intrigued, the man pulled over, went up to the farmhouse, and asked the farmer…

  • Anxiety

    Everyone has experienced anxiety at some point in their life. It’s a natural emotional response to stress that shows up as feelings of worry, tension or nervousness. It can occur as a reaction to a specific situation, such as public speaking or taking a test, or it can be more persistent, as seen in anxiety…

    Several of my readers have said they enjoyed my series on “Laughter” in which I included jokes. We all know that laughter is the best medicine. I’m not going to publish daily jokes as I did during the series in August, but I will include a joke every once in a while just to keep…
