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.

Success, Part Two

The deluge here in Houston is coming to an end, and it promises to be good weather for the big CE event. I’m so excited, but I’m nervous, too, because there will be so many people there, and I’m actually a little shy. Plus, I’m going to be interviewed for the documentary, so that’s a...

Success, Part One

It has been raining cats and dogs, y’all. We’re under a flash flood warning, and I swear to god, we were awakened by the loudest thunderclap I’ve EVER heard. Afterwards, I just patiently waited for a tree to come crashing through the roof to crush us as we were cozy in our bed. Fortunately, that...

The Illuminati

Today is a very sad day for me and my family because we had to put down the very first cat we ever made a home for. Her name was/is Bluebell, a gorgeous Russian Blue rescued during Hurricane Katrina. As with Erik, her illness was mostly a mental one, but a disabling one at that....

Love, Part Two

I’m so excited because preparations for the Channeling Erik event at my home is in full swing. That means I’ll be busy trying to clean up this mess of a house including taking my Hoovermate Spin and Scrubmto all the floors in the house. I love that machine because it sprays cleaning fluid, scrubs with...

More Erik Pranks

Enjoy these great Erik pranks: Story #1 I’ve been a big fan of Channelling Erik for a long time now, and always hoped I’d get a sign from him or my mum who died last year. This morning I couldn’t believe that my internet connection was pulled out of the wall socket. I didn’t see...

Little Japanese Waving Cat

I love this Erik Encounter. It may be short, but it’s sweet! Check out the video at the end. I gave a maneki-neko, one of those cheesy Japanese waving cats (about 6 inches / battery ran), to my partner for the Holidays. I had bought a very cheap one, but I pulled it apart to...

Love, Part One

I received this heartwarming video from a blog member yesterday. Perfect timing considering today’s topic. Click HERE to check it out. For those of you coming to the CE event in Houston next Friday and Saturday, most of us will be staying at the Holiday Inn Express on 4900 Federal Plaza Drive, Houston, TX. If...

Auralicious Kari Mena

Hey guys, I’m going to keep this post short because I’m down with some god awful virus: fever, cough, stuffy nose, conjunctivitis, and the feeling like I got hit by a Peterbilt truck. The radio show is still on for tomorrow, though, and I’ll leave instructions below. Please send healing energy if you have any...

Children and Spirituality

First, I want to share this really lovely song blog member Al Williams and his wife, JJ composed in honor of Erik. I think it’d be a great addition to the soundtrack if his story ever becomes a movie. I cried when I listened. They’re so freaking talented!! Check it out HERE. Also, many of...

The Zika Virus

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! We froze our asses off here, and a few of my favorite plants bit the dust, but it was nice to have a weather change here for once. Today, I have some announcements: The winner of the contest, Justin Marsh, has chosen Alexander the Great as the next...

Thanks

Congratulations for Justin M. for being the first one to verify that Erik was raised in Hedwig Village, an incorporated town one square mile in area in the west side of Houston with it’s own fire and police department and city hall. Except for the fact that the police here are traffic Nazis, I love...

Was That a Phantom Poop Smell?

So far, no one has guessed where Erik was raised. It’s kind of a trick question because it’s a town within Houston! This is a great Erik Encounter! Be sure you watch this video before you read on: About a week ago, after having asked Erik to come around, I was in my bedroom and...

Where to Begin

If you're new to Channeling Erik, I recommend you read the backstory first. Then, I suggest you start with the very first post. In doing so you can follow my journey just as I did, through the inexplicable, inconceivable, and yet utterly undeniable surprises that I have encountered since my son''s death. Welcome.
