One evening in November when I was home all alone, I was sitting at my
computer and answering emails when suddenly, as I was typing, there was this
big hard slap against my right wrist. The sound was so loud that my parrot
started jumping around in his cage and going nuts. The sting was so bad that
I had to turn on more lights to see if I had a big red mark on my right
wrist. I had never ever experienced anything of that sort before in my
life!!
As I was trying to closely look at my arm to try to figure out just what
happened, I felt this "presence" of icy coldness go right past me from the
right where I was slapped, creep very slowly across my chest as if part of me
was stepping into a deep freezer, then continuing to the left side of me, and
finally exiting from the left side of me. Now that really freaked me out!
The next day I got a phone call very early in the morning that my mother had
been rushed to the hospital in very critical condition. After the doctor did
some tests, they determined she had a bleeding ulcer and had to do emergency
surgery on her. She was fine several days after that. Thinking about old
superstitions, I thought maybe that slap on the wrist was some sort of sign
that my mother was very ill. She was fine after that and I still try to
figure out just what that slap was all about. I know one thing, I hope I
never have to go through anything like that again.
