I asked if there could be a dimension where time does not exist, and my father could be both alive and dead—and therefore able to visit me. “Yes, there is. All you have to do is travel at the speed of light and time stops. A second becomes eons—but as perceived by somebody else. For you, a second is a second.” “The big bang is an issue,” Joel added. “But I don’t think Miguel would have gone there. You said you didn’t know you were in danger of dying, right?” “Right,” I answered.
