The questions that have informed my journey have been posed in light of profound relationships with remarkable people who happen to suffer from a very strange and difficult disorder. Their journeys have been fraught with uncertainty and have put tremendous emotional strain on family and friends. In seeking answers to my questions, I was invited to witness their personal struggles to maintain some form of connection with the very pulse that gives them life. Though our walks have differed, our journeys' destination has been the same - to know where our place is and who we are in the midst of that. We achieve this by allowing one another to remain as viable members of the Christian community and to have the expression of that lived out through faith in the Triune God. A path that leads to personhood, and a sense of self, cannot exist without each other.
