Those are questions that a mortal really can't answer, in my opinion. I only know, that I don't know if I was awake or in some altered state. My memory saw an apparition in the room, not standing, kind of in the air? of Jesus looking at me with eyes relaying the message "Be strong." Now, the first time I thought it was maybe a dream, and as I was brought up without Religion, I never gave it a second thought. But the second time, the next night, it changed how I looked at everything. I accepted that there was a Power far greater than I or my daughter, and that I was powerless to change how events would unfold. She began eating, I relaxed[no not the valium my attitude], she went home, and when she fell down from weakness upon our arrival home I just helped her up and went about my business. Is it Spiritual or God? To me, and that is my belief, they both go hand and hand like a horse and carriage. The bottom line she was well, and I was relaxed and able for the first time in l l/2yrs to care for her without being extremely anxious. Fondly, Phillipa
