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.

The Spiritual Basis of Aches and Pains

Time for an eye update. My vision is improving (very) slowly, but it’s going in the right direction. It’s still very blurry, and I can’t close my eyelid completely so I have to put drops and ointment in it all the time. That alone makes the blurriness worse. I can’t wait until it’s completely healed...

Bipolar Disorder

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....

Where Should We Evolve?

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...

Relationships 101

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...

Perceiving Loss Differently

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...

Call for Aborted Suicide Attempts

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...

Ebola Assistance – Urgent

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...

Human Evolution

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...

The Ancient Footprint

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...

Best of Erik: Who Are We?

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...

Being LGBT, Part One

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...

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.
