Feast of All Saints
By Patti Dansereau — Nov 3, 2015 12:50am Yesterday was the Feast of All Saints and late last night I received a beautiful short email from Paul: As we were just finishing evening prayer it came to me, I guess today is the day we celebrate Bernadette huh? Feast of All Saints. As difficult asContinue reading “Feast of All Saints”
Looking into the eyes of Jesus
By Patti Dansereau — Oct 3, 2015 2:51am Tuesday marked eight months since Bernadette went to heaven. It will never cease to amaze me how time can tick by at a snail’s pace and yet as fast as the speed of light. The last few weeks I’ve been struggling with the memories of ‘this time last year’. Remembering how Catherine andContinue reading “Looking into the eyes of Jesus”
Middle of the night collision of thoughts!
By Patti Dansereau — Sep 14, 2015 5:49am It’s almost 2:00am and I’m up and at the computer recording what just flashed through my brain while I was still mostly asleep. This is a first, but having a thought in the middle of the night is not. So what makes this thought so special… well nothingContinue reading “Middle of the night collision of thoughts!”
God, Our Real Mother
By Patti Dansereau — Aug 18, 2015 5:46pm When Bob and Joan were visiting last week, Bob gave me a book to read: Prayer, Our Deepest Longing by Fr. Ronald Rolheiser.

Book Report: Making Sense Out of Suffering
By Patti Dansereau — Jul 27, 2015 4:42pm Yesterday I finally finished reading Making Sense Out of Suffering by Peter Kreeft and am thrilled I did. I stopped reading it about half way though the ‘clues from the artists’ because it just didn’t seem to be what I was looking for and it was the typeContinue reading “Book Report: Making Sense Out of Suffering”
Not a good idea to break rule #1
By Patti Dansereau — Jul 6, 2015 2:28am Rule #1: Do not put myself in the position of being overtired. Rule #2 Never break rule #1. As a general rule, breaking rule #1 is usually a direct result of the need of one of the children, mostly Zoe, trumping my need for sleep. Well last nightContinue reading “Not a good idea to break rule #1”
Another stick!
By Patti Dansereau — Jul 3, 2015 2:19am From everything I’ve read in different books or articles about grieving and getting through the ‘special days’, Canada Day is not generally mentioned – if at all – but for us yesterday was a tough day. Catherine and Bernadette had shared on more than one occasion that CanadaContinue reading “Another stick!”
Jairus’s daughter
By Patti Dansereau — Jun 29, 2015 6:27pm Yesterday at Mass the Gospel reading was the raising of Jairus’ daughter. I confess that I had a hard time with holding it all together and not delving into my usual questioning of God as to why. But during Father’s homily I didn’t succeed and I cried out and askContinue reading “Jairus’s daughter”
Company and some breakthroughs
By Patti Dansereau — Jun 18, 2015 12:05pm For the past six days Mom and Dad have been here and it’s interesting how it’s been a break from my grief in a way. Normally I’m very much alone and have too much time to just think about everything and that usually brings on tears. But with two other adults in theContinue reading “Company and some breakthroughs”
