Tell us an unusual thing that people don't know about you

I have had many interesting experiences during my 75 years. Some are worldly like being married to an Emmy Award winning composer, or experiencing a murder in the family.
However, one thing is more important. I was healed. A miraculous healing of my deformed thumb. The woman standing next to me in church simply held my hand and said a quiet quick prayer. A few minutes later I saw that my thumb was restored to the correct position!
That was about 8 years ago, and it has stayed in place perfectly ever since. I thank God for His love and provision.

I just turned 90 and yes, I am doing just fine, thank you. However 80 years ago, when I was 10 years old, I contracted Scarlet Fever. In today's world with its proliferation of drugs, it seems hard to believe that there was nothing then. I remember being taken by an ambulance to a hospital for infectious diseases. We were kept in isolation. That was the only treatment. I was there for almost a month, but I survived.

Thanks for your comment.

I was told that my maternal grandfather (who was born in Guatemala ~1896) had scarlet fever as a child. It left him with a weakened heart. He died in his mid-40s.

Those kinds of diseases were serious business!

I wonder if it was rheumatic fever. My father-in-law had that and it also left him with a weakened heart. He died at 48. Now we have drugs for everything. Then it was the luck of the draw. In addition, we also had to go through all the so-called childhood diseases, such as measles, chicken pox. whooping cough, etc. because there were no vaccines. Measles is a very serious disease. Now because of modern scientific discoveries kids don't have to go through all of this. So it is very important to get the proper vaccines for your children.
