Grateful Ever Since

It was Christmas Eve of 1990 and I woke up feeling achy and feverish. I had beenfine the day before. I was scheduled to go visit my mother for Christmas Evedinner with my mother and current boyfriend. By the time I got to my mother's, Iwas burning up. I got my boyfriend to take my kids over to my ex husband's so Iwouldn't ruin their holiday and they could spend time with their father.

My mother put me to bed and made me tea, gave me aspirin—anything she couldthink of. Nothing worked. I was like that for the whole week. My mother wasfrantic; I was afraid to fall asleep because I felt like I was falling.

Finally, on New Year's Eve, so exhausted and overmedicated, and with my motherpraying by my side, I let go and fell into a deep sleep. I dreamt I was in anairport and I saw many different people around me, each person holding a manilaenvelope. Everyone boarded an up escalator, as did I. At the top of theescalator there stood a kind man, guiding people to their destinations.

When it became my turn, the man looked at my hands; I held no envelope. The mansmiled and put his hands on my shoulders. His touch was warm. The man said,“It'snot your time. You must go back.” He turned me, and I saw that the escalator I’drode up on was suddenly going down.

I woke up in a cold sweat. I rushed to take my temperature. My fever had broken!

I ran to my mother's bedroom to tell her and she must’ve thanked God a milliontimes over. So did I, and I’ve been grateful ever since.

从此感谢上帝

[纽约州]密里亚姆·瑞维拉

正值1990年圣诞前夜，我醒来感到疼痛和发烧。昨天我身体还好好的。我计划去看望我妈妈，和妈妈以及现在的男朋友一起吃圣诞前夜饭。我到达妈妈家时，发着高烧。我叫我男朋友带着我的孩子们去我前夫那里，这样不会白白浪费他们的假期，便可以和他们的爸爸在一起度过了。

我妈妈把我扶上床，又给我沏茶，又给我阿司匹林——她可以想到的一切都没有奏效。我高烧整整一周。我妈妈发疯了;我害怕睡觉因为我情绪低落。

在新年除夕，我又精疲力竭，又吃药过量，妈妈在我身边为我祈祷。我陷入昏睡之中。我梦到我自己在飞机场，看见身边有许多不同的人，每个人举着一张马尼拉纸信封，每个人登上自动电梯，我也如此。在电梯顶部站着一个善良的人，领着人们到各自的目的地。

轮到我时，那个人瞅了瞅我的双手;我没有举信封。那个人微微一笑把他的双手放在我肩头。他的一触是温暖的。那个人说，“这不是你的时间。你必须回去。”他转过身，我看见我自己登的电梯突然下降了。

我吓出了一身冷汗。我赶忙量体温。我的高烧退了!我跑到妈妈的卧室对她说，她一定一次次感谢上帝了。我也是，从此我就感谢上帝了。
