My Bionic Arm

When my parents had been married twelve years, they decided to renew their wedding vows in a small ceremony in our attic. A lot of our family came to help celebrate.

When the priest shook the holy water onto my parents, a little bit of it got on my left arm. I could actually feel my arm becoming stronger and bionic.

When the ceremony was done, I had all of my cousins come down into my bedroom and I told them about my newly bionic arm. Of course no one believed me, so I proved it by lifting up the end of my twin bed with my left hand.

Their doubtful chit-chat faded and no one said anything. But I think they were impressed.

Betty, it's definitely still bionic. I like to show it off when I carry fifteen bags of groceries on that arm.
