It was Saturday morning, I barely could see a thing – not my family nor my dog. i felt lost in these unspeakable moment. the sun was already in the cloud and the tress already moving along with the winds but my mind was shattered . My mom came to check up on me, is something she always does every single day maybe even when I was still in her womb. i smelt the aroma of great breakfast. 

when it was time for me to open my eyes, they didn’t want to open. It felt like they were glued on my own skin . I screamed and my mother as always came rushing and scared that something might have happened to me.

 “I can’t see mom , I can’t open my eyes” 

She was surprised while scared, asking herself many thousand questions and I know you might ask how did I knew that . I knew because I would feel it in my heart . Everyone came rushing ,they didn’t bother going to work that day just to make sure I am well. They all had their point of view about this situation. My father said I might be bewitched because I am in grade 12 and my sister said I might have an eyes problem . I didn’t know what to think nor say . Everything was blur in my mind and my soul.

 I lost hope , peace and happiness. They become buried in my soul and they fled like a wind . I must say it was indeed an unforgettable memory.

My parents took me to the doctor who is well known for being the most marvelous doctor, Dr Martin . My father hired a car because he didn’t want people to keep asking what is happening with me, why are my eyes so closed glued to my skin. Even when I cried, my tears were not seen . it is like they melted in a huge sand no one would walk in it.

 We got there and by the grace of god , she was not on leave . My parents waited for me outside . When I came in , I could smell the scent of medicines in all kinds .We sat down and she looked at me ,I could feel it. She talked to me and I responded to the questions; I knew the answers.

She gave me medicines and said that I will be fine very soon.

 My parents mainly believe in ancestors so my father asked for a path and a cure. i guess he found it . I couldn’t watch Tv that day because I couldn’t see a thing ,only hear voices . The next day , I woke up and by the grace of God I was able to see. I called my parents and everyone was happy to see me well again ,able to see and go back to school so I can achieve greater things . I did achieve greater things because I was able to obtain Bachelor degree and one distinction.
