Several weeks after Kevin's death, Paul and I were visiting
Forrest at the hospital. Paul was standing on one side of the bed
and I was standing on the other. As we looked down on Forrest, each
of us absorbed in our own thoughts, I was suddenly aware of another presence.
It was as if Kevin had walked up beside me and was also standing there.
As I let the feeling wash over me, Paul suddenly looked up with a startled
look on his face and said: "Doug, let's go out in the hall - there's
something I'd like to talk to you about." When we got outside
of earshot of the rest of the people in the room, Paul said: "You
know, as we were standing there, I had the strangest feeling that Kevin
was standing there with us watching over Forrest."
