Last Friday Night We Held a Healing Ceremony

I (Maggie), Suzanne and Alix spent last Friday evening with Millie in Atlanta before she left for her surgery in New York. While we were all around Millie and praying and sending her love and healing energy, something miraculous happened. Millie's grandma has always been very close with Millie. It's like they had a special connection. Last year grandma passed. When we were doing the ceremony, Millie and I asked Grandma to help Millie get through this. All at once, Grandma spoke in her native tongue, Spanish, through Millie. Alix, who also speaks Spanish, was there and spoke with Grandma. Here is what Alix recalls:

Grandma asked, "Can someone here hear me?

Alix writes: When I first heard that I believed it was Millie who was trying to deliver a message to all of us present at that moment, but after she asked a few more times I answered yes without being sure what was really going on."

Soon after I answered, Grandma said, "Please tell Millie:

• To light a candle and put a glass of water in preparation to your surgery. This is to remind you to have faith that everything will turn out fine for you.
• It is not your time, Mija. You need to be okay because you have a mission waiting for you.
• You will be speaking in front of many people, you will help many people to transform their lives and everything will happen because you transformed yourself.
• This whole process will last about 5 months and at the end of that term you will not recognize your body.
• Please thank all that matters and all who are here with you. Thank them for filling your heart with love and for teaching you to love.
• Thank also her teacher.
• Thank her Mama.
• Tell her she cannot be afraid because that interferes with the process.
• Tell her I will be there in that room along with her surgeons and I will be taking care of her.
• Tell her she can't be afraid and that I will come back when I am ready because I am not ready yet. I am finishing my training and I will come back."

Alix writes:

I wrote the closest of what I heard that night. As I was writing, the memory of the glass of water came to my head and I try to let other thoughts go for a moment to capture the essence of that moment, that was not only deeply emotional but magical.

Please add to the posting all my gratitude and my eternal love to Milagros Munoz.
