A great story about Ellery, Pat. I've had a few clients who came to try to recover an earlier language they've learned. Of course, if one has never learned French, they are unlikely to recall it. But if you've learned it, it's still there somewhere within. It may be childlike if learned only as a child, but from there, can be recalled and developed quickly into mature vocabulary and use. I've contended, ever since I became a hypnotherapist, that events, lost items, etc. can be recovered from one's "memory bank" much more easily when one is relaxed. I believe that witnesses would remember far more if, instead of the interrogation style they are usually subjected to, they were asked to close their eyes, take 3 long, deep breaths and let themselves sink into their chair, allowing themselves to speak of whatever comes into their mind WITHOUT interruption. Further questions can, then, come after that. Some people specialize in hypnotic forensics for this reason. Best always, Del Del Hunter Morrill, M.S., N.B.C.C.H.

(Her dad was a missionary and they were evacuated when WWII broke out.) When she was assigned to Manila, she thought the Tagalog language she had been fluent in would come back to her fairly easily. She was very frustrated to find that it was gone and not coming back. About 6 months in to her assignment, she had been doing development in Manila and was exhausted. She got on the bus to go home and wanted nothing much more than a good nap. But the women just behind her would not let that happen. They kept yammering away about the most stupid and trivial things: their kids and their squabbles, the troubles in their marriages, and other nonsense. Ellery was furious; why couldn't these women shut up and let her sleep? Suddenly, she realized that the women were speaking Tagalog and she was understanding every word. She was so tired that she had lost all her inhibitions and the Tagalog that lay just beneath her conscious mind came out. So from then on, she both understood and spoke Tagalog fluently. She had a great time telling this story on herself.

Just her face was a human support mechanism. She spiritually nourished me and we rarely even spoke. And with mortality on my mind as so many saints are called home, knowing you have gone with God, I will let go a bit of the anticipation of my own return. For Carol, while there are many, many memories: one that popped to the top was the time we were at the IERD in Delhi and had boarded the VERY tiny elevator on the top floor (about the 22nd as I recall) of the hotel where we were housed. We pushed the button for the ground floor and about a third of the way down, the elevator shuddered to a stop and the door opened.on a brick wall. Well, I was a little claustrophobic and unaware that Carol was extremely claustrophobic. That hour waiting to be rescued (it could have been 15 minutes, but seemed like SEVERAL hours) was revealing of the wondrous woman of steel (Superman move over) who kept us breathing and laughing to avoid injuring ourselves in the mad panic of fear that sets in when you MUST get OUT and you cannot. Clearly our circumstances were not our problem. While in "Heaven," do a few cartwheels for me, my dear, as I know we both would enjoy them.
