My father and wife never got along for the longest time, and it seemed they never would until he fell into a coma. When he finally awoke, he shared a shocking revelation about her, changing the trajectory of all our lives.
The day we’d prayed for finally came! After a year in a coma, my dad opened his eyes! His eyelashes fluttered like a butterfly tentatively landing after a storm, and at one point, his lips curved into the faintest of smiles. Relief flooded me, but I wasn’t aware that my celebration would be short-lived.
