As I watch our stock market tumbling I find myself feeling cynical, how did these folks get us IN to this mess! I then remember one of the the coolest coolest things about my job....THE PEOPLE...I get inspired all over again and I have to think we will all be ok. When I do talks in schools or community groups I tell kids about the long haul medicine entails&nb...

There is something I have just started doing. I am proud of myself in many ways for doing it but oddly also sort of embarrassed to tell people. Ok, so here it is. I have just started taking bellydancnig lessons. Feel free to laugh because watching me try to do the moves is truly quite funny! I was scared shitless to go the first night, but i went. It is something completely outside of my comfort ...3 Recommendations16 Comments

Hey J. It's been a while since I have written. I have been a busy beaver and just not had my mind on journaling much. Glad to see you are still here waiting for me. An important thing happened last night. I placed my trust back in God. I had turned my back and walked away for a good while. I got this deluded thought in my sick mind that I would one da...2 Recommendations14 Comments

I know that I understand, how little they really know.
And that look of pity on their face, will always show.
They can't look past and get to know, the person deep inside.
They never see the real me, the part this chair can't hide.

I have lots of hopes and desires, and things I dream of.
I know my legs may be useless, I may travel b...4 Recommendations11 Comments -

So, as most of you know (I think?), Mala (littlemiss) came all the way from the UK to stay with me for ten days here in sunny (and windy, currently!) California! In the beginning, I was really nervous about it, anxious about the day when Mala finally came. My hubby drove me down to Los Angeles airport (about 1.5 hours south of my town), where we picked her up, and of cours...1 Recommendation9 Comments -
Well so far today, I have only had carrots and dip, pop, and a string cheese! I will probably eat lunch in a bit! I am REALLY looking forward to achieving this goal and am going to try EVERYTHING in my power not to fail! Its going to be hard though since Megan is here tonight and we're going to be watching movies! I ALWAYS want to binge when I watch movies! ...1 Recommendation9 Comments

I think we can all agree tonight is a historic night. Regardless of how you feel about Obama I hope we are all inspired by the amazing turnout and the emotional investment in this election we have never seen before.
Today I was doing rounds at Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center. It is common to have many folks hanging out in the waiting rooms outside of the surgical ICU waiting for the "5 ...2 Recommendations8 Comments
