THE WARDROBE'S MESSAGE
I lost my brother in spring 2009. My life changed radically. I thought I couldn't take it anymore, there was so much pain. I spent months locked in my room, in a flat shared with a couple who didn't care about my grief. I was alone in a foreign country, no friends, no money, no job, no family; only sorrow.
One day I decided to die too, I was going through the effects of the swine flu. One of the nights of agony with very high fever, I thought it was my end. In away, I felt happy, at least I would be able to meet him again.
I don't remember how, but there was a moment I closed my eyes, I was shivering in fever. I asked him to come to take me away, faraway, by his side. Suddenly I felt peace, I opened my hand and then, I felt someone sat on my bed and held my hand. I remember I felt happy, I knew that it was over!
Day after, I opened my eyes, and felt extremely tired,but the fever was gone... I checked my watch, I had slept 19 hours in a row! I wake up. stood up and thought: if I am still alive, it is because I have something to do here on earth.
That day I had got an email someone unknown sent to me to encourage me to apply to Uni Degree. Days later I did it, and the whole process was quite weird... I got admitted against all the odds, but then, I needed to find a place to live. Suddenly I found a place, and although I wanted another, everything was ready for me to take that apartment, (that one, afterward, I discovered it was empty since spring 2009). A beautiful flat within the campus area. Just needed a good cleaning. I did it, and when I opened one of the wardrobes to do the cleaning, I found a message written: " It is impossible that in the end the miracle will not occur" That struck me! Suddenly I recognize my brother's handwriting, and of course, it was not written in a very good English!
That day I knew my angel was there, awaiting for me, arranging everything for me, he left a message, and the miracle occurred: he saved me, he brought me to this place!
Still the pain is here, but today I know, my brother is my guardian angel, and always will be! Now I am close to finish my degree.
I am the person who wrote this story. I just want to say that from the very moment i arrived to this flat my life has changed. By chance I found out the St Michael's church is just five minutes from my place; I have become an active parishioner and devoted to the Archangel Michael, whose small statue was left for me as a present by my brother before he died. I have finished my MSc and now started my way to my PhD. Many strange events have occured me since I arrived to this flat which have confirmed the presence of my brother in my life but the presence of the Archangel Michael too. I have found peace and aceptance to my brother's death and I am sure he is now in peace but most importantly, he is my guardian angel with the assistance of the Archangel Michael. I have been blessed!!!
