Much of this website will include and reference the word and concept of dignity. Few people understand the true meaning of dignity, and even fewer realize the extraordinary impact it has on our lives and relationships. When I ask people to define it, or tell me what it looks like to have their dignity honored, …
Good folk of Annunciation Greek Orthodox Cathedral, By now most of you will have been told there was a small protest outside your church last Sunday. I was surprised so many parishioners stopped and took so many photographs. Not one had the courtesy to say anything, not even “good morning” The officers who patrolled were …
After some 11 weeks homeless we have only now managed to get in front of the Greek Orthodox church to protest and attempt to shame John Zavitsanos. There have been so many setbacks with transportation and Beccis health that Sunday June 9 2019 was the first day parishioners could see us as they walked into …
We try to keep costs down by living in the cargo trailer van for 3-4 days depending on how Becci feels and then regrouping for showers and air condition the rest of the week. We had a donation from a client Becci helped when she was executive director of the British American Business council. We …
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahcuPHVz6aM a plonker” basically means a silly or stupid person. I’m 60 yrs of age and I’m still naive. I thought this would be easy and everyone would want to help. After all, surely its bad policy and inhuman, to treat a 65 yr old paralyzed woman in this fashion? All this time I am …
What a plonker! Me (or the continuing updated saga of evicted from a hovel of a hotel) Read More »

Written about an event which occurred May 2018. This was a particularly nasty story. Becci is paralyzed on the left side. The external limbs are obvious. What one forgets is the internal organs also have the same issues. So pooping becomes an issue. The poop travels slowly through the system because of the paralysis. Where …
Kate just didn’t care. When the hospital wanted to discharge Becci I had massive arguments with the director of social workers. Becci still had a feeding tube which when I asked for them to remove they said she was still susceptible to another stroke. Yet they still wanted to discharge? Becci was not on the …
THESE ARE THE PRINCIPLE PEOPLE WHO ACTED SO DISGRACEFULLY Becci was friend and confidant to so many. These are the main people who kicked her to the curb with no thought of what may happen to her. BABC British American Business Council I am a Brit I am ashamed it was 2 Brits who did …
This is very long, In the next few days I will break it up and add pictures. But right now this needs to be seen by as many as possible. Please take the time to suffer the long story. Parental abuse occurs in many forms. Beccis only child Kate has ignored her mum for most …
To: Pastors Reagan Waggoner, Rachel Conner A mother of one of your parishioners desperately needs your help. My name is Peter Evans. I am significant other and now husband of 18 yrs and caregiver to Thelma (aka Becci) Himes. Becci is mother to Kathryn Eggenberger. Grandmother to Luka and Levi Mother in law to Brian …
Becci Himes Mother of daughter whom she homeschooled as a Christian, who is now married to a pastor. 2 Grandchildren. Expert pianist and singer. Brought her daughter up as a single mother as many do today. For the last 15 yrs Becci was executive director of the British American Business Council. A not for profit …
Becci had her stroke Dec 19 2017. We were living in Meadows Place at the time. We sold our house to move into Harris County to take advantage of County Health District services because we did not have health insurance. We bet everything on getting Becci well again. We rented 5211 Hummingbird st 77035 from …
Stroke is one of the leading causes of long-term adult disability, affecting approximately 795,000 people each year in the U.S. The very word “stroke” indicates that no one is ever prepared for this sudden, often catastrophic event. Stroke survivors and their families can find workable solutions to most difficult situations by approaching every problem with …
March 2019 B asked me to send greetings to all. Not easy being homeless. So far no one messing with us. Many cross the street. Pete’s commentary….. B crying a lot. Wishes she had died when had stroke. Not unusual for stroke survivors. But her predicament much worse there is no support group except another …
This is our home until we can get our deposit monies back from landlord. We will need much more. The cost of moving has once again been huge. We can do nothing to help the move. There has once again been no support from B’s family and daughter in particular. We have to pay for …
Bailiffs any day now. So many of our so-called friends are no longer around. There has been a marked uptick in the number of unfriendings on Facebook. Very few of the hundreds of kids I coached rugby for free over the last 20 years have bothered to respond. We need help with labor to move. We …
With no help from family every waking hour has been devoted to B. B gets Medicare this year so I will not have to fight for every therapy, hopefully freeing up many hours for me to pursue these ideas.. Some photos I randomly selected from the year. Back of pick up truck, and various others. I will …
Finally I promised to talk about what will help you in the future. We all think we are geniuses. Some more than others. Many believe we are, where we are, in life because we deserve it or because we have worked hard. No one believes they have been lucky. But, if you ask the most successful …
I think what hurts B the most is the lack of support from her family which comprises 2 sisters not residing in Houston and a daughter married to a so-called ‘pastor’ in Sugarland. It was evident from the start that the daughter did not want to change her lifestyle to incorporate her mum’s needs. Since …
From June through today we have worked B hard with so many therapies and novel ideas. She has made great progress. I will write more on this to help other stroke victims. Finally, it seemed everything was on schedule and I could take time off to write about the nasty people on the board of …

Her board at the British American Business Council for whom she had worked loyally for 15 yrs chose to kick Becci to the curb and deny her any help. They proceeded to eradicate her name and achievements from the history of an organization she single-handedly took from failing to hundreds of members and half a …
All hospitals have a simple policy when you do not have insurance. They get you stable and then kick you out. B was still in bad health at Ben Taub in March. They wanted to discharge. I argued and fought tooth and nail to get them to keep her longer. If they truly thought she …
In this last year we have come across some nasty human beings. One would think and hope others might be generous and compassionate to someone who has fallen so badly through no fault of their own. Here is a list of the most egregious examples. St Lukes discharged her on New Year’s Eve 2017/18 and …

Becci had a bad stroke Dec 19 2017. For 5 months she was bedridden whilst the docs sorted out so many problems. As well as a stroke she had a pulmonary embolism, blood clots in both legs (filter implanted), collapsed lung, feeding tube to stomach for 5 months, benign tumor on face, heart failure with …
