Erik always had a big heart. Even as a small child, he’d lavish everyone with love and affection. When he entered middle school, showing such love became difficult, of course. This is when he began to learn that such feelings, such behavior, leaves one’s heart vulnerable to attack. So to protect himself, he developed a…
Paul’s Gift in Verse

Jason, Robert and Erik
I love the banter between Erik and Jason, so I thought I’d share some more. I’ve also included Jason’s thoughts on the concept of time and a technique he uses to communicate with and sense spirits.

Erik Finds Tracy and Shannon
I know these stories are also in the comments section, but they’re so remarkable, I think they deserve a home of their own in the form of a post. Plus, I’m working a 12 hour shift at the hospital, and cutting and pasting seems a bit more manageable today. (Yes, I do have a lazy…
Ask Erik: Tom’s Question
This question was very difficult for me. For one, I was feeling a bit down that day, swept from pillar to post by yet another tidal wave of grief. But I also felt a connection to Tom’s story, to his son, Matteo, and the pain they both have endured. Even as I write these words,…

A Poem for Erik
