He held the strings in his hand!

An eye operation had been scheduled. Now a painful healing process was in store. Over Easter, I had planned a small festival of encounter with my children. As my pain was very great and I had to keep my eyes open at night, my daughter made me understand: "You won't be able to stand it over Easter. I'll take you to the eye clinic on Easter Monday at the latest!" Easter night came. Late in the afternoon, I found a text message on my mobile phone. There I read: "I'm taking you to the Easter Vigil. That way we are connected!" Deeply comforted, I lay down on my bed late in the evening. Contrary to expectations, I slept very tightly and well. And the painful thread in my eye, which had not allowed me to sleep and which was to be pulled out after Easter, loosened itself - without medical help. So I could celebrate Easter with my children and grandchildren.
