On October 6, 2009, my 20-year-old son Erik, took his own life. Since that sad and tragic day, an overwhelming sense of grief and despair propelled me into a search for answers. Answers that would provide me and others with comfort and hope. Some of those answers came from the many books I bought, but many came from an unexpected source: Erik himself. Read more.

All About Erik, Part One

Ringo is almost fully recovered, thanks to all of your prayers. This weekend, since Emma’s daughter will be out of the hospital, we plan on having a 2 hour session covering the afterlife interview of Laci Peterson, all about climate change and that mysterious legend, Moth Man. It should be entertaining stuff, and I can’t...

Life changing

I just want to say thank you for everything your doing with your son Erik words can not describe the effect you both have on my life but Iam sure Erik knows. I have crohns collitis since 2000 surgery not sure I should say this but it made me a better person open minded, I...

Energy Protection

For those of you who submitted questions for the September Ask Erik column, click HERE to see how Erik answered them. If you didn’t, then you might want to read this anyway because it could apply to your life, too! And we’re ready to collect questions for October now, so if you want to submit...

Erik on Energy Cleansing

Ringo update: He hasn’t been drinking water at all and has only gotten fluids through the wet cat food he’s on temporarily. I’ve been giving him syringe-fulls of water on a frequent basis and he seems to be improving. Still, he looks miserable in his little collar. The poll results are in. Exactly 87.23 %...

Sex in the Afterlife

Ringo will be picked up from the vet today. Apparently, he sailed through surgery with no problems. Not only that, I called the emergency vet where I took the Jack Russell to be scanned and, in spite of the fact that her chip wasn’t registered, they found the owners.  Missed yesterday’s Hour of Enlightenment show...

Sassy Mantras

I just stumbled upon a great YouTube channel called Sassy Mantras. She’s only got a few clips, all very short (which fits my tiny attention span.) Her first name is Daniela, and she’s actually been a blog member for quite some time. Daniela claims that Erik has encouraged her to start this YouTube channel, injecting...

Erik on Chakras, Part Two

Check out this very poignant video, courtesy of our new guest medium, Veronica Drake, about our boy Erik. She’s received an enormous amount of praise for her channeling here, and is planning to offer the same question and answer sessions as Raylene and Emma soon. She’s AWESOME! If you want to contact her, click HERE before...

The Joyride Show

Being on the Joyride Show with Kerry, Tiffanie, and Kari was so much fun, just like a bunch of girlfriends getting together and yakking! Watching this, you’ll learn a lot more about me, aside from being Erik’s mom. Be sure you subscribe to their channel. 

Erik on Gender

Since the Beltway and many roads are closed due to flooding (see yesterday’s post for pics,) traffic around town is HOR.RI.BLE. I was supposed to go on Tiffany and Kerry’s Joyride Show starting at 9:30 this AM, but what should have taken 15 minutes took over 1 1/2 hours so we missed it, had to...

Fear of Failure

Confession time. I have a lot of little quirks in my behavior, so let me share one. I prefer baths to showers and when I get out of the bathtub, I rush to dry off, get dressed and do whatever else I need to do. The goal: to be out of the bathroom before the...

Pranks, Pranks Everywhere!

Many of you have expressed a desire to donate to the Hurricane Harvey relief efforts. Help is badly needed. Did you know that 70% of Harris County, which includes Houston and the surrounding areas, flooded with at least 1 1/2 feet of water? It’s crazy. The Beltway at I-10 is still closed because the underpass...

What a Guy!

You guys have always been awesome about helping one another out. Here’s your chance. Long time blog member, Trell W., just lost his wife, and now they’ve taken away his children, too, because his wife’s relatives blame him for her death. According to him and to Erik, that’s simply not the case. Their actions are...

The Opiate Epidemic

We still have part of our house without power and some other things that need fixing, but one of our dear friends has 4-6 feet of water in his house and his cars are all totaled. No flood insurance, either. So many people are hurting right now in Houston and the surrounding areas because the...

Call 619-639-4606 15 minutes prior to talk to Erik. http://goo.gl/aFHTzJ Erik: Will God ever die? No. It’s infinite. Life...
