Thanksgiving week I closed the store to go to Norfolk, Virginia and take our boat down the inter-coastal as far south as we could get. A Nor’eastern hit Norfolk which slowed down the trip, so we had to not be so aggressive in getting south. I was so impressed with everything I saw. The eagles, the dolphins, and the slate-gray herrings were all around me the entire trip. It was just an unbelievable experience. A great adventure! Met a lot of neat people along the way and just had an awesome time. But one downfall was receiving a call from my father, that he lost Sambucca, my cat! I really wished he’d waited til I got home to tell me the news, because 24 hours away from home with my hands tied, it’s out of my control and just dampened my vacation. Then I kept asking to myself, “How come I kept seeing eagles flying with us along the boat? Why did this happen with my cat?” Sunday, we drove the boat up the Cape Fear River in North Carolina and left it at a marina, because we both had to get home to get to work on Monday. Eddie and I drove since 7:00 in the morning Sunday, got home 10:00 at night Sunday night, and going over to my father’s house right away to think that Sambucca was just hiding. No, Sambucca wasn’t hiding; she was gone. My heart and my body felt like a train drove over me. The emotions that ran through my whole body were just terrible. The next day (I didn’t sleep the entire night), I woke up at 7:00, ran to my husband’s office to run off flyers with my cat’s picture and description of her missing, walked up and down all the streets surrounding my father’s house (where is the house I grew up in), and ran into all of my neighbors from my childhood, wishing for a miracle. Eddie came looking for me at 9:00 at night to tell me I had to get home and tomorrow is another day. But, I’m so attached to this little creature that that’s all I thought about. She is only six pounds and she does not go outside. So, you can understand how I felt. And she’s completely black! The entire week I am supposed to be all excited because of my vacation and all of my energy kept going into my cat. So, I manifested an idea for everyone who came in here to take a picture of Sambucca and we would pray upon her picture of her coming home. The entire week was just exhausting. Friday comes after walking more streets and banging on more doors. I was driving to work and I said out loud in my car, “God, I truly need a miracle! My poor cat is going to freeze to death because the next day is going to drop temperatures!” As soon as I said that, my cell phone rang in my purse. I answered the cell phone and it was Animal Control, and they said, “We think we have your cat. I will call you in fifteen minutes.” So, I went to my store, brought my cell phone in, and I’m bated breath, “please don’t let it be another false alarm”. The Animal Control said, “Meet me at the Bolton Vet. Your cat got struck by a car, but supposedly she’s fixable”. Eddie picked me up at the store and brought me up to the Bolton Vet and God answered my prayers and brought Sambucca home, but she does have a fractured fourth vertebrae and needs to be in complete confinement for six weeks for it to mend. Now, I’m sending all my prayers for her whole and healthy body to mend itself on its own other than putting her in surgery. So, pray for my cat to be whole and healthy! She’s here now in a confined box, but hey, she’s back! And trust me, if you don’t believe in miracles, this is one great miracle. Now I just have to stay positive.
So I’m asking of you to just say some prayers for a whole, healthy Sambucca. It’s pretty amazing having her back in my life. That is a miracle all on its own. I guess it must have taught me that when you truly do have the gift and use it, you can manifest whatever you desire.
I want to thank each and every one of you who anticipated in helping to manifest this miracle in my life. Love heals everything, and thank you.
I am truly grateful,
Meg
