Julie Beachy and I are now husband and wife. 

 

 

 

I am sometimes amazed about where my stuff shows up on the Net. One of my video tributes to my late wife showed up on this site.

 

 

I wrote another essay about being a suicide survivor (of course, Melinda's death had a profound impact on my life) and the Albuquerque Journal published it on June 2nd (the 4th anniversary of Melinda's death). Read it here or click on the logo.

 


 

A recent essay I wrote was published in the Des Moines Register. Click here to read it. Thanks! (The page is now gone on the Des Moines Register site but you can do an archive search to pull it up).

 

I have written a memoir that deals with grief and struggling with multiple sclerosis.
This is a mock-up of the book cover, designed by my brother, Evan.  

As of yet it is unpublished, but you can read it by clicking the button below the image (send me an email to request the manuscript). The only thing I ask in return is to send me your feedback. Thank you.



Request my manuscript!

I am also working on another memoir called Moving Forward; Learning to walk again for the first time. 







I am an award-winning broadcast journalist but had to abandon that career one year after being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. 




Our wedding went extremely well and I will post more photos on this website soon!
Unfortunately there are more cases of the sometimes-fatal brain disease PML associated with taking the drug Tysabri.
I have my last MS seminar this month in West Des Moines at Legend's Sports Bar and Grill on Thursday night (August, 19th).
It is Thursday and tomorrow I will, once-again, be a married man. I am doing last-minute preparations for the wedding and am, of course, excited.
I had my second speech at a MS Seminar in Storm Lake on Tuesday, August 17th. My 3-part speech is now on YouTube






I have an extensive YouTube channel page.

You can check out more pictures on this site, on MyFortDodge.com or on Flickr.
