因为我们所具有的非凡的默契和感知能力,我和母亲之间存在着深厚的母女情结。
14年前,我住在印第安纳州的埃文斯维尔市,那里距离我的母亲——我的知己、我最好的朋友有八百英里。
一天早上,沉思中的我突然觉得急需给母亲打个电话,问问她身体是否还好。
起初,我犹豫了。
因为母亲是四年级的老师,7:15打电话给她会打乱她的日常规律,使她上班迟到。
但是,还是有某种力量驱使着我放下一切顾虑打给了她。
我们聊了三分钟,她向我保证自己很安全、很健康。
那天晚些时候,我的电话铃声响起。
是母亲打来的,她告诉我说,可能是我早上打给她的电话让她逃过了一劫。
如果她早三分钟出门的话,她就很可能是州际公路上交通事故中的一名受害者。
在那场事故中,数人死亡,多人受伤。
八年前,我发现我怀上了我的第一个孩子。
预产期是3月15日。
