Mestizo the Old Man

In our computerized high-tech society our elders are too many times misunderstood and neglected. Some are sent to old age homes; others suffer in silence in their own frail, impotent world. Diego Santiago, a eighty-nine-year-old World War II veteran suffering from amnesia and the complications of old age has been praying every day for his lord to bring back his memory so he could recall if he was a good person with his loved ones, if his life had a fruitful and caring impact with others that shared his life. Then one day when he was asleep in the portal of his adobe home by the bosque on the Rio Grande in Albuquerque, New Mexico, he heard a mystical voice calling his name and he awoke. He looked up toward the sky and heard the angelic voice calling him, “Diego! Diego! I am going to restore your memory, but beware for there are tragic events in your past you will not want to remember!” And with those words etched in his mind he began to recall his past, weary of the unknown occurrences in his past he would have to face.
