THE FINAL CHAPTER : A SPIRITUAL JOURNEY (Sept 2009 to Jan 2010)
At the Grotto of Our Immaculate Conception, in Lourdes
Daniel (14+ years old) (Sunday 27/9/2009)
Day 18 in Lourdes
NOVENA DAY 10
Michelle and Sophia left about an hour later.
We had embraced and deep in her heart, Mom had to admit she was touched and was grateful for their kind friendship.
After all, they were strangers.
They did not have to spend their time with us.
It is true, that often ... very often ... God uses an unfamiliar, seemingly insignificant, person to carry out His mighty works.
You went for the bath at 2 pm that day.
While Mom and You spent some time at the grotto and thereafter relaxed and rested beyond the stream, Dad went back to the hotel to meet up with Uncle Peter. He was taking Dad to the pharmacy to get your medication which had finished this morning.
Dad came back to meet us at 4:15 pm and said he managed to get the steroids.
As usual, we attended the Blessed Sacrament at 5 pm and Holy Mass at 6 pm, before we went back to the hotel for dinner. You felt better and was able to join us at the dining hall this evening.
After dinner, we wrote an email home to Justine. Mom started the email greetings and You took over.
You were in a happy mood tonight.
Aunt Diana would be here tomorrow. :D
