Montana Momoirs: Children remind us that miracles really do happen
When I was about 15, I got sick — the kind of sick where family and friends keep vigil at your bedside as you slip in and out of consciousness. I missed nearly two months of school and my memories of that entire time are hazy and surreal — except for one.
A family friend, who was very religious, leaned next to my bedside and whispered, “I’m praying for you.”
“Does that mean I’m dying?” I asked her.
She seemed surprised by my question, but I grew up in a secular family. We did not pray — even if things got really tough — and we only attended church with my grandparents on Christmas Eve. Communicating with God — whether to offer thanks or to ask for help — was not really something to which my family ascribed.
Over the years, our lack of religiosity never really bothered me. Some of my friends’ families spent all day Sunday in church and Wednesday nights, too. My family was usually outside skiing in the winter or swimming or boating in the summer. My religious deficit didn’t affect me negatively until advanced placement English classes when I proved completely incapable of tracing religious themes in literature.
