原标题:向去世父亲的手机号发了4年消息后,这名美国女子竟收到了回复!
许多人都做过这样的事:给逝去的至爱亲朋发送手机短信,表达思念、诉说近况,仿佛逝者能收到这些讯息。
美国阿肯色州一个名叫蔡丝蒂·帕特森(Chastity Patterson)的23岁女子也是这么做的。她在父亲去世后的4年中,每天都向父亲的手机号发送消息诉说自己的生活日常,把4年中独自所经历的点点滴滴、生活的起起落落全都记录在了发送给那个手机号的短信中。

She talked about how she beat cancer and has been taking better care of herself like she promised her father she would。 She talkedabout how she finished college and graduated with honors and how she’d fallen in love and had her heart broken,“(you would have killed him),” she told her father。
她谈到自己如何战胜癌症,并一直像她对父亲承诺的那样,更好地照顾自己。她讲述了自己如何以优异的成绩完成大学学业,如何坠入爱河,又如何失恋心碎,“(你会杀了他的),”她(在短信中)对父亲说道。

当然,她从未收到过任何回复,直到上周四,她父亲逝世4周年纪念的前夜,她竟收到了来自她父亲手机号的回复!而回复她的人竟是个失去女儿的陌生男子。
He said his name was Brad and that he has been receiving Patterson’s messages the past four years。
他说他名叫布拉德,在过去4年里,他一直收到帕特森的短信。
What made the moment even more special is that the two were bonded in tragedy。
让这一刻更特别的是,悲剧让两人的命运结合在了一起。
Brad lost his daughter in a car wreck in August 2014。 He told Patterson that her messages“have kept[him] alive。”
2014年8月,布拉德在一场车祸中失去了他的女儿。他告诉帕特森,她的信息“让他活了下来”。
He told Patterson he had not reached out before because he didn’t want to break her heart。
他告诉帕特森,他之前没有主动联系过她,因为他不想伤她的心。
Brad then ended the message by saying he wished his little girl would have become the woman Patterson is, and that he is so proud of her。
布拉德在最后在短信中说,他希望他的小女儿也能成为帕特森那样的女人,他为她感到骄傲。

帕特森把这段奇特的经历分享在了脸书上,并透露说,她去世的父亲并非她的生身父亲,但他对帕特森的关爱和生身父母并无两样。
Patterson revealed that the loved one she‘d lost, Jason Ligons, wasnot her biological father, but she called him dad。
帕特森透露,她失去的亲人杰森·利贡并不是她的生父,但她把他唤作父亲。
“Jason was not my‘biological’father, but blood could not make him any closer!” she said。
“杰森不是我的‘生父’,但他和我的关系比血亲更亲近!”她说道。
“He never missed a school dance, prom, my games and YES he would give me long talks about my mouth and attitude。 I had to introduce my boyfriends to him(If I was allowed to date) and he would act like a normal dad and give us the long talk,” Patterson said。
“他从来没有错过学校舞会,毕业舞会,我的比赛,是的,他会对我的谈吐和态度进行长篇大论。我还必须把我的男朋友介绍给他(如果我被允许约会的话),他会表现得像个普通的爸爸,和我们长谈,”帕特森说道。
“I shared my messages for my friends and family to see that there is a God and it might take 4 years, but he shows up right on time!” she added。
她补充道:“我把我的信息分享给我的朋友和家人,让他们看到上帝的存在,这可能需要4年的时间,但他准时出现了!”
