dance ms swan song
Dance MS round 4 is coming up! (Poster will be… posted… forthcoming.) But while traveling… and putting a lot of work into the fundraiser while traveling (not to mention my online work)… I’ve decided this will be it. Maybe Dance MS will come back at some point. But not in 2017, or at least not […]

It’s a smartphone app which allows you to raise money for various charities while walking, running, or outdoor cycling. You can raise up to 25 cents per mile, depending on your activity.

i’m here….
I stepped away for a bit. Yeah, you noticed, right? I’ve been busy trying to create a bigger and better fundraiser for this year… switching MS drugs (again)… working a few jobs (still)… planning meaningful travel (as always — that’s what life is about!)… and much more that I can’t wait to tell you about!

dance ms 2015
So, this event that ate my life for… how long? (And I told the band that if it hadn’t done so well, I would have called it quits after this… but how can I do so now…) People had a BLAST at this year’s Dance MS, which was now 3 weeks ago. The hall was […]

reality… or negativity?
I try not to be negative about my MS, whether here or in real life. But sometimes, I think it misleads people to believe that everything is all unicorns and rainbows. Which it isn’t, right? I have been tired. I have lost strength, and I’ve had moments of blurred vision–not to mention paranoia about losing […]

dance ms promotion! october 3!
Just over a month, I am holding this event here in Seattle: It may be called DanceMS, but you don’t need to dance… you are welcome to sit and listen, and chat with friends! It’s a great time to gather with your community and have some fun. I happen to be the piano player for […]

don’t just “like”… go do it
There is a certain social media platform these days where, just by the click of a button, you can show your favor just by saying “like”. The universal thumbs-up. Just a few weeks ago, when we traveled internationally, it occurred to me just how universal the thumbs-up has become, thanks to Facebook (whereas, in some […]
