Lost and Found Stories
from GON Readers
Awhile ago, I asked GON readers for their 'Lost and Found' stories.
I published a bunch at the time, but received so many that I couldn't fit them
all. I thought now would be a great time to include them. Here goes:
My Son's Lost Wallet
Hi Maria,
My son, Cameron, has Down Syndrome. When he started school, I picked up a
TILE
(location finder) to put inside his backpack. He had lots of things in his
backpack: hearing aids, wallet, lunch box and school work. We used it a few
times to locate his bag. After several years, we were good with the backpack,
but now Cameron was needing to have a wallet with his State ID, School ID and a
few dollars for the school store. I replaced the backpack TILE with a smaller,
thinner one and placed it inside his wallet.
One day Cameron was on a field trip with school and when he returned home he did
not have his wallet. We were all very sad. I called the bus company and they
checked the bus but no luck. They checked at school. No luck and even contacted
the field trip location.
Suddenly I remembered the new TILE I had put in Cameron's wallet! I brought up
my TILE app, pressed the TILE labeled for Cameron's wallet. It brought up the
Bus Depot address for our local school. It was on the bus, it must have fallen
out of his pocket and was between the seat and the wall!
We were so happy to get his wallet back! The next thing we did was put a wide
rubber band on the wallet to keep it from slipping out of his pocket (causes
friction).
Thanks for all your inspiration!

My Lost Wedding Ring
Hi Maria,
I used to take off my wedding ring when I baked/cooked and set it on the counter
somewhere until I was done. Then, one day, I realized that my ring was nowhere
to be found. We searched everywhere - drawers, cushions, trash, central vac
receptacle, etc.....to no avail. I made sad peace with the fact that it was
gone.
Fast forward a year, when I am baking cookies one day. When I pulled the mixer
out of its storage area, I heard the drop of metal on the counter. There was my
ring! It had somehow got onto one of the legs on the bottom of the mixer and
hadn't fallen out on any other times I had baked.
I was so happy to have it back. I now have one spot on my dresser where the
ring goes when it's not on my hand.

My Lost Keys
Maria,
I once lost my keys for a whole year. We had gone camping and we were taking
down the tent (which is the last thing to put away). I always keep an extra set
of keys in my console so I thought for sure I would find the lost keys when I
unpacked. No such luck.
I found them the following year when we went camping again. They were inside
the tent!

Get Your Free Pass
Neuromovement Healing Fest
A complimentary 6-day event
that begins on May 17th

Tell me if this at all sounds familiar...
Karen is in her 50s and works a desk job. Her weight's okay, she's reasonably
active, but she is 'feeling her age.' Her neck and shoulders are often tight,
her joints ache, and overall stiffness sometimes causes her to wince just
getting out of her chair. The days that are really frustrating are when she
cannot even reach her shoes to tie her laces.
You see, no matter what Karen tries, she's stiff and can't stretch. A muscle or
age problem? Not necessarily. Very often, it's because the brain has forgotten
how to 'feel' parts of the body...back, hips, shoulders, etc. The brain just
becomes no longer aware of those parts. It cannot successfully direct the
muscles to move in certain ways.
Science now shows that by re-activating the brain, we can continue to positively
evolve and transform physically, mentally, and emotionally to experience an
increase in overall performance, flexibility, energy, and enthusiasm.
That's where the Neuromovement Healing Fest comes in. Discover the simple
movements that will immediately improve your brain functioning so you can move
freely once again without pain...just like in your younger days. You will see
super-fast results. Best yet, this event is free of charge. Visit:
