I really liked this. It flowed well and I didnt see any mistakes. I like how I got a clear image in my head of what I believed was happening. Overall very well done.

Comment from Winslow
Dear Papa,
A inspirational story. If only the Lord could send angels to help in times of a crisis, but then again He does. It just requires a belief. I am glad that Hammie came to help Josiah. A warm read.
Cheers,
Winslow

Comment from estory
I think it's a great story of hope, and you used some great realistic touches to put us there in the hospital room with the little boy frozen in his wheelchair, unable to move or communicate emotion. We feel the frustration in the conversation between the doctor and nurse; again, touches of realism make this seem credible. Then the mysterious face at the window, the symbol of the colorful lily, an image of life, of hope. The conversation with the angel adds to the realism and makes the miracle come alive. A nice uplifting story. estory

Comment from LisaMay
What a lovely natural read this story was, an effortless telling of a worthy tale that tugged the heartstrings without being an outright tear-jerker. The spiritual aspect was introduced beautifully, and I also enjoyed how the care-workers were thanked... such a difficult job. Your story was wonderfully uplifting on many levels.
(I used a butterfly motif, too, in a recent poem I wrote "My heart Goes Flitter Flutter")

This was an intriguing and engaging read, Papa55Mike. Your dialogue and descriptions had me right there in the moment with these characters, watching and listening with rapt fascination. I'm so glad I got to read this today. xo

Comment from barkingdog
What a touching story.
All of your characters are well-developed. Your dialogue is very natural, even Hammie's rich accent reads smoothly.
Suggestions:
He's dressed in a pair of dirty overalls, white teeshirt ( spelling:T-shirt), and (is) barefooted.

Really nice feel good story! A couple of punctuation things but overall very good! I love angel stories, but pretty much any paranormal story will do as well! Look forward to reading more from you!

I enjoyed your story very much, I found it to be quite moving and very touching. Good job! I think that little miracles happen everyday, but nowadays we're all too busy with our face in a screen to notice anything.

Hello Papa Mike!
Well, I thoroughly enjoyed your story. I kept thinking that something terrible was about to take place, and it was refreshing to note that your story ends on a positive note. Goodness! And I also love the ending with "How have our lives changed?" I'll be looking forward to finding out as well!
Thank you!
