The Flash Point, Chapter 4

FROM THE PRIVATE BLOG OF JACK BRITTEL

ENTRY, December 14, 2010

Shortly after my mother passed away, I had a number of strange dreams involving the flashpoint. For starters, in my dream my mom never died of cancer. In actuality, she was near death and was rushed to a hospital in the former Soviet Union as they developed a new experimental medicine not legal in the states. Since the medicine was considered controversial, no one including my father knew of this. Subsequently, she was in hiding for several years.

In the meantime, my father got re-married. Unfortunately, the second wife turned out to be an ice queen. Even more disconcerting, the new woman in his life was wreaking havoc and was causing all kinds of problems. In 3 short months, she had convinced my father that two of my brothers should receive psychiatric treatment. Needless to say, this was a pretty dire situation. My uncle had tried to put a stop to this but had no luck. To be truthful, the situation seemed hopeless. Then the strangest thing happened… I had a dream in which my dead mother came to me in a dream. This dream was very different as it was first dream in which she directly spoke to me. She approached to me in a dark cloak and at first I did not know it was her. However, she then lifted the cloak and revealed herself and stated, “this is all wrong. Something must be done to put a stop to this.” The bizarre thing is, I came back that night and my father had divorced the ice queen. Just like that.
