WE MUST DECIDE WHAT WE WILL DO WITH THE TIME WE ARE GIVEN

I was recently speaking at a disability conference. Someone commented that I'm holding up extremely well after 32 years with MS that has been aggressive. I know, most people would be institutionalized or gone by now. There was a time when multiple sclerosis took me to the edge of quadriplegia; my situation was getting that serious! In fact, my neurologist put me on drastic, potentially life threatening therapy still in clinical study phase to try and prevent quadriplegia. Things were that dire. The therapy proved so toxic to me he stopped it early. Happily, the attack later subsided.

I am fortunate. The MS has not yet silenced me from speaking out on Life issues or confused moral clarity for me.


In whatever time I have left, I will continue to promote the equality, dignity and sanctity all human life from conception to natural death. North American society has abandoned its previous Christian moral consensus in favour of nihilism and narcissism. The foundations of the family have crumbled and marriage redefined. 

I wish I had not born into a time where unwanted or inconvenient children are killed before birth or suicidal sick and disabled people were not helped to kill themselves. (God help us in the dark and murderous future!) But there it is: I must respond to the situation I find myself in. Tolkein said it
