Not Ready


I have a story that I would not have believed if it wouldn't have happened so close to home. I was sixteen when my son Dylan was born. He was born premature and the Doctors did not think he would make it. I was prepared to let him go with God but I was very heart broken. I thought my life was over.

One night my sons doctor called and said he was very sick and I should be there first thing in the morning. I was so scared but somehow I managed to fall asleep. I was awakened by a soft gentle breeze and sitting on my bed was my Grandfather who had passed away two years earlier. He was so beautiful. He was surrounded by big beautiful white wings and a long white gown he told me not to worry for my son he was watching over him and he would come home in a week. I couldn't believe what was going on.

I went to the hospital the next day and he was getting better and sure enough he came home that next week! I of course thought that was the end of the story but I was wrong. Three years later my Mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer. I thought for sure this was the end for her. I got a call from her one morning and she told me that when she had went to bed the night before she lost her breath and thought she was getting ready to die and she turned to her table next to her bed and the picture of my son on the table had turned to her and smiled. She was startled but calm, then when she turned back around and looked out the window she saw my son hanging on the moon waving to her. My Mother told him goodbye and closed her eyes and a second later my son was sitting on her bed and started blowing air on her and she said as he was doing that she could feel her body come back to life.

My son turned to her and said, "Grandma told me you weren't ready yet and I needed to come down to save you, and now your owies are gone." My Mom turned to ask him who he was and Dylan was gone. Two weeks later my Mom went to the doctor and mysteriously her cancer was gone! We always told Dylan he was one of God's Angels and he would just smile.

One week ago my Grandma was diagnosed with lung cancer and I went to Dylan and asked him if he could help her and he looked at me in a very sad way and said, "no Mamma, God said that Nana has to go with him soon and I can't help him this time but I love you Mom".

I was with my Grandma the day she passed and she told me to be careful how I treated people because it may be an Angel your talking with. She stopped breathing soon after that and before her last breath she called for her Mother ..and then died.

When I went home to tell the kids what happened I walked in to hear my son say, "it's okay Mom she's with God now."
