HOPE & LIGHT

Hi, my name is Barbara Robbins. My husband Mitch and I have been married since 1973. Mitch is a video producer and editor, and I help with the bookkeeping for our business which specializes in video projects for Christian TV, churches, and other Christian ministries. We have had three children. Amy, our adult daughter, is a free lance artist and blogger, David, our special-needs son, recently got to meet our first-born, Teresa, in heaven.

In addition to blogging at hopeandlight.blog, I am a contributing writer for Godlivingwithchronicillness.com and a part of the leadership team for God-Living Girls with Chronic Illness, a Christ-centered support and encouragement Facebook group for ladies of all ages with chronic illness.

I am also currently writing a memoir about an automobile accident in 1975, that was responsible for many disabling injuries to my previously health body, that I continue to live with. It was also indirectly the cause of the long list of chronic illnesses that I’ve been diagnosed with since that time. This accident also resulted in the death of our first-born child, Teresa Lynn.
