Shine Light into YOUR Life!

B'SD

22 Cheshvan, 5777

My hectic schedule has me posting updates at night. I just returned from a heartwarming "Hootjam" with friends.  Some of us sing, some play instruments, and all of us have fun each Tuesday night.

But gosh, we've never done anything THIS powerful!


I received this link today.  It’s a song of hope and joy written by a man who today is in an advanced stage of ALS.  I hope it shines some light in your day. 


Go ahead. Shine some light into YOUR life!

How to Have FUN with Hardships: Make a Game of Them!

B'SD

24 Kislev, 5775

I wonder how many people in my actual life remember the games I played during my recovery from 2005 surgery? I'll jog your memories: 

Remember my demand that you walk into my hospital room with a new joke? 




Remember the Boo-Barbie episode, years later, that left all observers laughing until it hurt?  


Remember that you were struck by my emotional resilience? Same principle as that described in the video below. Have fun with hardship. Learn how to do that as you listen to...







How can you play your game of Super-Better?

Perhaps you can begin by naming your secret identity for one of the characters: 

Activate your Power Up. Recruit your allies. 


Find out how I did that, 
despite daunting medical news, 
this Thursday...

A Can-do Message Far Beyond the Medical Sphere

B'SD

17 Kislev, 5775

Kislev is reputed to be a month of miracles. The life-saving Hanuka miracle of the Maccabees took place, then.


Maybe you can make a miracle, too,
no matter which holiday you celebrate. 

Want to be a hero as you do your best to save someone's quality of life, despite their diagnosis?

Here are some thoughts on that topic by mental health professionals:


"It's MY Crisis and I'll Cry if I Need To can be of enormous help
both to people with an illness and to those near to them.
Yocheved Golani's sharing of hope, courage and faith
will bring relief to many sufferers."

Rabbi Dr Abraham J. Twerski, MD, PhD, Psychiatrist, Director of Gateways Rehabilitation Center

"… This book is lifesaving, emotionally rewarding, spiritual, funny and helpful…" 
 Judith Guedalia, PhD. Director, Neuropsychology Unit and Chief Medical Psychologist ER Trauma  (MCE)Team at Shaare Zedek Medical Center, Jerusalem, Israel

"… a powerful 'can-do' message to those most in need of it… It could save your life or the life of your loved one. This combination of positive attitude and positive action makes this guide useful and complete. Its lessons extend far beyond the medical sphere to life challenges whatever they may be: lessons we can't afford to ignore." 
 Life Coach Y. Ives, England

Find Out if Neurological Disease is Brewing in Your Body BEFORE it Affects You




22 Sivan 5768

The medical world in Israel is filled with innovation by people thinking "out of the box." Read on to learn about a dynamic foursome of women working together to identify neurodegenerative diseases such as ALS and Alzheimer's Disease well in advance of when they begin to affect people.

Within the next four years, a simple blood test designed by those ladies may soon alert doctors and their patients to the need for preventative neurological care. See
NEUROQUEST, and stay tuned to future developments.


By the way, if you're willing and able to fund the research of this
NEUROQUEST effort, you can find out how to contact the group by watching the video and reading the article hotlinked above.


Think that's a great tip for today's blogpost? There are a whole lot more of that quality in my highly acclaimed book "It's My Crisis! And I'll Cry if I Need To: A Life Book that Helps You to Dry Your Tears and to Cope with a Medical Challenge."
