    “Waiting for the Moment to Be Free”

    Pulsatile Tinnitus is the metronome of my life now, but not my master. Years ago I started writing music for the sole purpose of making my tinnitus part of it. I got the idea from the song “ Blackbird “ by the Beatles. The open third guitar string G, is repeatedly played throughout the song. I...

    Searching for the Light of Hope

    My heart goes out to those, who live in chronic pain. I can recall the stabbing pain in my lower back, that brought me to my knees, with tears in my eyes. After a MRI, I had back surgery for a herniated disk, in my lower back, and now the pain is gone. I may have experienced the pain of...

    “High Hopes”

    I am reminded about a song my wife and I sang to our young son decades ago. A song Frank Sinatra sang in the movie “ A hole in the head.” The song was about, “an ant that could” and “high Apple pie in the ski hopes”. It’s a good thing to have “High Hopes”, and most of us do. I got out of...

    When Tinnitus Is Pushed to the Back of the Line

    I have posted that I don't have time to be bothered with my tinnitus right now, even though it is severe. It is not as important right now due to other medical conditions in my life. There were so many things I had to take care of first and still continue to do so. You see time has become...
