A Pair of 13s and Acid in Your Contact Case
Numbers today.
A pair of 13s.
For some, this might be an omen.
But for me a pair of 13s add up to 26
and that’s 1 less than 27,
my luckiest number,
because that’s my birthday.
And this all might make sense,
considering all the intense pain
and blindness I experienced since Thursday morning,
and today, the day of 13s,
I woke up feeling no pain and having good sight.
And although I believe Jesus was present somewhere,
it was a miracles of miracles,
involving doctors diagnosing,
chemists making eye-drops
and salves that took away the pain
and gave me my sight back.

Once, many years ago working in the finishing department of a mobile home factory, I got a piece of steel in my eye that was irritated immensely by my hard contacts. With a scalpel, an eye doctor deftly removed the sliver of steel. After that I didn't wear the contacts during the day in all that dust, only at night.
After returning to college in the fall, I began wearing the contacts all day for the first few days until my eyes became so irritated I went to the doctor that sold me the contacts. He told me that I had worn the surface off my cornea and that I needed to start all over after letting my eyes heal for a few days with training my eyes, a few hours at a time, to wear the hard contacts all day again.
Later, I was stopped by a County Mountie. He came up to my car, and said, “What is the matter, didn't see that speed sign back there?”
I said, “I have contacts and…”
The cop cut me off and replied, “I don't care who you know, I'm giving you a ticket for speeding.” ;-)
