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.

Addiction, Part Two

Enjoy Part Two of our addiction series! Me: So cutting. Cutting is different to me. Tell me about people who cut. Why? Why? Erik: Cutting is just an outward damage. What do you mean? Addiction to food, that one’s just inward damage. Are you an extrovert or an introvert? Addiction to food changes your appearance,...

Addiction, Part One

Thanks so much, guys, for being patient with me. Things have settled down, but what happened did trigger my PTSD a bit, so it’s probably going to take some time for me to feel whole–not that I every felt completely whole since Erik’s death. But I do feel up to doing the regular posts, so...

Praise for Erik

Story #1 This is my first day on your website Elisa and I want you to know the love that resonates here is beautiful and welcoming! Thank you so much Jamie, Erik and Elisa for this amzing work you are doing. I am looking forward to further contact with you all in the near future....

More on God and Religion

Here’s a three-part series on God and religion.  Me: What does God look like and how was He or She created? I think we’ve asked this before, but a blog member wants to know or maybe just needs clarification. Erik: What does God look like? God is energy and can present itself to you anyway...

Homosexuality

Thanks for being patient with me, guys. The situation I’m going through is settling down but still critical. Still, I couldn’t leave you high and dry, so for the rest of the week, I’ll post some old entries, then resume Saturday with the regular posts. Please forgive me if I haven’t responded to comments from well-wishers....

Erik Pranks Four Blog Members

I love this first story. She loves her f-bombs just like Erik does! Story #1 Pranked!!!!!! Putting on nail stickers…..something or other. I don’t fucking know what they are called but they are cute colors and I stick them on my nails. Anyways!…lol I use a nail file to file them down. I had put...

Hijacked by the Light

As many of you have noticed, we’ve been getting some very cruel comments from “Thomas F.” I’m worried about his bitterness and hatred. He seems so angry and lost. I’m sending him love and healing energy, and I hope you all do, too. He doesn’t need our criticism. He needs our help. The poll results...

Near Death Experiences, Part Two

Enjoy Part Two of Near Death Experiences.  Me: Do people do that without having a near death experience? (I’m referring to out of body travel to other dimensions.) Erik: Yeah, that happens a lot with deep meditation, transcendental meditation. Sometimes it happens in your dream state. You come back and kind of get fucked up...

The Law of Attraction, Part Two

Thank you, everyone, for the wonderful words of support yesterday. You helped me get through the day relatively unscathed. We’re such a tight family, aren’t we? I’m so grateful for that.  This morning I had a very interesting session with Jamie. I asked Erik about a variety of conspiracy theories, many of which I first...

The Law of Attraction, Part One

Today is another bad day for me because 6 years ago, I buried Erik. I keep thinking of all the things that happened that day: driving in the rain to the funeral home, greeting people while trying to smile, getting through the service, riding behind the hearse to the grave site, having the service there,...

Erik, Erik, Everywhere!

Yesterday was gardening day for me. My knock-out roses look like complete crap, so I’ve admitted them to the ICU for care. Every six weeks, I’ve been administering a cocktail of three different sprays: One is a 3 in 1 fungicide/fertilizer/insecticide, which basically means I have no idea what the hell is wrong with them and...
