I Would Like to Welcome You
To
A Piece Of My New And Improved World
Hugs you all tight
As I sit in my rocking chair, I am thinking about how far I have come. So, please have a seat, pulls out a rocking chair so you can sit down. There is fresh home brewed coffee and tea and soft drinks, if you prefer please. Also, help yourself to homemade muffins, hot right out of the oven and fresh fruit. Now let me take you on a journey of how my life is now.
When I am having a bad day, I sit, relax and look at the sky. I can see all the beauty that my Lord has made for me. I see the Sun, stars, moon. The rainbow in the sky reminds me of God's promise to never flood the earth again. The rain is how the Lord washes all my sins away. The snow reminds me of how beautiful My Lord blankets the earth with white sheer beauty. It is so awesome. I love to look at the earth, the trees, flowers, and the grass. I know my Lord has given me all this for free with is undying love .I love to go outside and be still as I pray t him looking at all his beauty
My husband, whom I am deeply in love with, has helped me to become so secure in our marriage. Looks at my husband with love in her eyes. You are the Love of my life. You have been there for me all this time and are not tired of having to do things when I cannot. I love you so much for being you and for you being involved as President of the local Council of Churches. Also, a member of Promise Keepers, whom I give a lot of credit, to help you grow closer to me and Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Yes my love, I get upset when you are out so much at night between your job and the church. But, I would not want to have you change your life. We both are involved in the American Legion. You have allowed me to grow in Our Lord by helping me with this home page. Dennis and I were married on Oct. 9, 1967 at the Methodist Church in Massachusetts. We now go to the First Congregational Church. This past few days has been hard on me as my body has been going stupid on me as I call it the FMS, which is call Fibromyalgia Syndrome which is a muscle disease. My muscles are weak. I praise my Lord big time that they finally found a name to my "Muscles". I also have Rheumatoid Arthritis and have also had a closed head injury a few years ago. I was in my cellar and came up fast and smashed my head on the drainpipe I have a dent in my skull pressing on the nerves. This involved many months of learning how to speak again I use to watch Sesame Street, Barney and friends, and Mr. Rogers. I had to learn how to dress myself again. I lost all of my friends due this. Dennis was patient with me, but I wanted to be normal again. To me normal was doing things on my own as much as I could. To this day, I have a hard time understanding things unless it is said to me in my own language. I stutter a lot. Sometimes, I look in the mirror and I see my face going stupid on me. That is the only way I can describe it. I know someday when I see my Lord; I will have a new body. No more pain. I was brought up to be kind to all. Why cannot ones be kind to me? I am so excited that our Lord and Savior has let me do this Novel, "Passion Taylor?s World", I am writing.
I do not know now where I am going, but I am trusting in the Lord and letting him guide without him I am nothing.
More added by her husband of 40 years on January 20, 2008:
After writing "Passion Taylor's World" and succesfully getting it published, over what we believe to have been about a three year period Noel slowly started having problems with her memory. We don't know exactly when it started as these types of issues don't stand out aft first. It takes some event to bring the issue to the forefront. In any case, we saught medical help and were sent to a neurologist. Many test were run without any conclusive results. From time to time I would come home and be told by Noel that she had had a bad day. She had had more than usual trouble collecting thoughts and in some cases not remember the events of the day. The problem got to the point that she could not finish many sentences because she had forgotten what she wanted to say.
In May of 2007 she spent a spell in the hospitan and rehab, not by choice. After that she had to have a companion whith here for a portion of every day that I was a work. The doctor's feared for her safety.
In late October she again went into the hospital but with cardiac issues, never knew she had a bad heart too. After a week in CCU she was taken off of the critical list and moved to a private room outside of CCU. The next morning, October 25, she quietly passed away and is now with her father and brother in heaven.
