hi everyone. i thought i posted this once but i cant find it anywhere so im trying again... if this is a repeat sorry...
i wanted to get some opinions on a personal experience i had.
my husband passed away in dec of 05 and the following week after his death, my mother passed away. both from cancer.
anywho...
one day about a month or so after their deaths, i decided to go in and take a bath. (guess i should mention that i inherited all of my mothers jewelry... one item in particular that i had started wearing was a st. catherines medal... im not catholic but i started wearing it because i found out that st. catherine was the patron saint of nurses which is my profession. my mother had bought the medal following the death of my grandmother whos name was catherine.)
ok. so i lean over the tub to start the water and i hear "plink" as my medal lands in the tub! i was upset thinking that i had broken my necklace...(it was a regular gold rope chain). i reached up expecting it to come away from my neck, but it was not broken and still clasped tight. so of course the next thing i think is that the medal itself broke. so i picked it up to inspect it and the bezel is still intact. it has a solid loop with no open spaces for it to come off of my chain! well i thought it was odd (but im used to odd things going on around me) so i put it back on and went about my business.
a couple of days later i was on the computer when all of a sudden i heard "wham". i looked down and there was the medallion off of the chain again lying on the desktop. the funny thing is i was sitting about a foot away from the desk and the medallion landed on the desk diagonally and not straight down in my lap as it should have. once again the necklace wasnt broken!
this happened one more time when i was walking in walmart and it popped off again.
then i just reached up one day and it was gone. i still havent found it ... wonder if my mom snatched it as i have had things taken right out of my hands before!
just wondering what you all think of this?
