Scars
Dad is leaning forward on the sofa now.
"She felt stronger to me, but she said she didn't notice anything. What do you think that means?" I am eager to get his interpretation of what I felt.
"I am hopeful. If any pair can break the odds, it's you two. I believe you have a divine link yourself, Am. Your family mark is a purple azalea or queen's wreath symbolizing healing and opening and receptivity of divine influence. I don't know what it will take, but I will give you all the resources I have." Dad was hopeful, and it made me think we could beat the odds.
