I was about 7 yrs.old and just recovering from the red measles. While sitting on my bed, I felt that some one was standing behind me. No one had come into the room, as I was facing the door. I turned around to see a tall figure of a woman, with long curly brown hair. She was wearing a light blue garment with a rope-like sash. She had what appeared to be a white cape os shawl draped over her shoulders. I wasn't afraid but startled. She smiled at me and with out speaking, she told me that I was "special", that I would have some bad things happen to me but that later on in life, I would know what she meant by "special". She told me not to worry, that she would always be there for me. She said that I would know when the time came, what I should be doing with my life.

I turned around to look and see if my mother might be coming into my room, as I desperately wanted someone else to see this figure. When I turned around to look back at her, she was gone.

I ran down stairs to tell my mother that I had just seen my guardian angel. She told me that I was imagining it becasue I had had such a high fever when I was sick a few days before.

But, I knew that what I saw was not imaginary. I've had no contact with this figure since then. I did have an episode when I was 14 yrs old., when I almost died from a tumor that had gotten gangrene and was poisioning me. Other than that, I can't say that Ihave had any unusual occurrences happen to me.
