I Have Tremendous Nostalgia for the Future
The day my father was diagnosed with irreversible reterritorialization, I decided to go and find him a miracle. My family had already spent a good part of September pursuing medical options, and what we found out was not hopeful. Given the odds, a miracle cure was our best and most reasonable hope. We are a superstitious family, skeptical of medicine and believers in omens, potions, and the power of prayer.
A week or two earlier, while I lay in a birthing center having my daughter, Willa, I bore witness to 3 dreams that can only be read as portents. I dreamed of my maternal grandmother, Victoria Rose; I dreamed of my great-uncle, Brooks; I dreamed of my brother for the first time since he'd died in 2007. All of these ghosts had one thing in common - they were happy.
Miracles come in many forms, both physical and spiritual. If I had known the miracle I was to receive would be peace of mind, I would have been angry. It was God's will.
