Bipolar disease is often a terminal one, which was the case with Erik. He knows all too well about this disease and explains its spiritual basis. Me: Let’s talk about something you suffered with in life, Erik. Bipolar disorder. Some are aggressive and some are not, so it’d be great if you could cover both....
Hey all. Thanks for all of the wonderful stories for the possible reality TV show! If anyone else has a story they’d like to share, send them along. The instructions are on yesterday’s post. My vision is still pretty bad. During the surgery, my left eyelid became paralyzed so I have to slather ointment on...
I have a very important request for you guys. I’m very grateful for those of you who have shared your stories about how Erik has saved you from taking your life, and I need more in order to be a part of this upcoming reality show. I need stories of how Erik has helped you but with...
I’ve been angry at Erik lately. Im mean pissed. It’s funny, I was never angry at him for taking his life, even the way he did. I don’t know why. Most of his siblings and his father are because of the devastation his death left in its wake. It changed everyone, mostly in a negative way,...
Yep, we all have ’em. Some are fulfilling, some are harrowing, and some suck the emotional energy right out of us. Nevertheless, they all provide valuable lessons. Me: Why do some of us repeat the same destructive patterns over and over again? I mean, you see it out there—the woman that chooses men who abuse...
We’ve been blessed with such beautiful weather here in Houston for the last several days, so working outside has been a delight. Even better, I think it’s going to stay this way for several days, including when my friend, Leslie, and her boyfriend, Ray come to stay. What’s crazy is that Leslie is a blog member who...
Hey all, I was contacted by a producer of a reality show who is considering using an “Erik story” for an episode. Of course this is a long shot, but I would love it if you can share a time when Erik may have literally prevented you from committing suicide and whether you’d be willing...
We have a winner! Congrats to Nichole S. She guessed a Les Paul. Many of you guessed Fender and Gibson. His first guitar was a Fender Stratocaster and he loved it. He loved his Gibson, too, but he had a connection to Les Paul, hence his beautiful guitars. They’re all still hanging on his bedroom...
As this is currently a heavily trending topic around the world. I wanted to share this with Elisa and the blog members from a recent channeling session Patrick has had with The Committee (Patrick’s Spirit Guides). Now that this disease (ebola) has entered U.S. soil many blog members may have a heightened concern. Please share...
Time for another contest, people! Here’s the question: What was Erik’s favorite brand of guitar? Email your answer to emedhus@gmail. com. I won’t have time to answer each of them. I’ll just announce the winner after the deadline which is tomorrow at 9:00 AM CDT. Good luck! The post today is a “Best of Erik” one...
I’m reposting this because my blog crashed, and I had to restore it from a backup on the server. Unfortunately, the backup was created before I posted this. Sorry! Many of us have had a life filled with hardships and tragedies. I look back on mine and see a path littered with potholes, some the...
Having been raised by parents with borderline personality disorder, this subject strikes a cord with me. Many of you might have family members or friends who suffer from this disease without knowing it, but it’s important to find out because by doing so, you gain a better understanding not only of them, but of yourself...
Today, five years ago, I buried my baby boy. The weather and my heart were just as dreary. I remember being in a complete fog that day. Everyone at the funeral was so nice, but I thought it was strange to see so many smiles and laughter. In retrospect, I guess they were sharing fond Erik...
We haven’t done one of these Great Mysteries of the World in a long time so let’s welcome in the weekend with one. I had never heard of this one, but Erik explains it well. First, a bit of backstory: In 1987, paleontologist Jerry MacDonald discovered a wide variety of fossilized tracks from several different species...
During the last few days of my recovery, Rune and I drove up to Little Rock, Arkansas to stay with my sister and brother-in-law. Their backyard backs up against the forest, so sitting on their front porch enjoying nature was a godsend. Very relaxing. Of course the bobcat roars made me cling to my 2...
I’m BAAACKKKK!!! Sorry for the delay guys. I had major surgery followed by complications which caused my vision to decline to near blindness. I couldn’t see anything on my desktop, must less the keys on my keyboard, but everything is moving in the right direction, getting better day by day. I missed you guys!!!! This...
Hey guys! My mom wanted me to write you all and let you know her recovery is going a little slower than expected. Please respect her wishes not to email her (since it dramatically increases the amount of work she’ll come back to) but feel free to leave her a comment in this post if...
First an announcement: I’m having major surgery in the morning so I won’t be posting until I recuperate. I don’t know how long that will be but I’m guessing early next week. I also won’t be checking Facebook or answering comments directed toward me. I will ask you a favor. Please, please, please (and I’m...
