I was driving
home on the highway and my youngest son was wailing and the traffic was heavy,
so I pulled off and took the back roads where there was no traffic, no cops,
no one at all. I started to nurse him while I drove, when suddenly I had a vision
that took over my whole perceptual field.
We were both covered in blood and our
bodies were melded together. I pulled over immediately. As I sat there on the
side of the road, a big Dodge pickup came barreling around the corner in the
wrong lane, exactly where we would have been if I hadn't pulled over.
