Mexico City. April, 2019


After a very hot day's visit to the ancient ruins an hour north of the city, I stopped at the Basilica of the Virgin of Guadalupe on my way back into town. I had an ulterior motive. I lit a candle (as had so many others,) and asked not that my cancer be removed (I thought that was too much to ask,) but that it wouldn't spread. A few months later, after my surgeon operated on me, he said that my cancer, extremely aggressive as it was, had somehow not expanded beyond its original location. He was amazed by this, saying that he thought it was, well, miraculous.
