[Faith-talk] Hi, Tammy

[Sandra Streeter]

Hi, Tammy, and welcome to our very stimulating list!

My grandfather (now deceased) was from Neb., too, so already have a soft spot in my heart for you.

I am Christian, though loath to claim a denomination, since God could have me pick up stakes anytime He wanted, and I also believe we Christians need to work together beyond denominational lines, when push comes to shove. I have been in the faith (that is what I’ll call myself) for 37 years—how time flies!

I am blind nearly from birth (ROP), with mild Asperger’s, so the Christian life with dual diagnoses can be pretty adventuresome—what I learned early from blindness can easily be applied to coming to terms with AS, so I tell people, “Don’t feel sorry for me—there are a lot of gifts in AS, just as in blindness.”

Interests: reading (mainly nonfiction—autism, eating disorders, neuropsychology, psychology in general_), and a smattering of fiction (medical suspense—trying to get NLS to produce some of the faith-based medical suspense that’s out there; Christian gothic suspense—not vampires, but similar to the old Victoria Holt or Phyllis Whitney stuff, Francine Rivers, and other historical fiction); writing; crafting; occasional cooking; good conversation, and a lot more.

Hope you have fun on our list.



Sandra
