In what's being called a Christmas 'miracle' by Teri Robert's family, just hours before they planned to end her life on Dec. 22, the beloved wife, mother and grandmother opened her eyes. Roberts still faces an uphill battle after she lost four of her limbs from her illness.

Teri Roberts' grieving family had already come to terms with her likely death, planning to turn off her ventilator, when they say a "miracle" happened.

The 56-year-old wife, mother and grandmother, had been in a spiraling coma for 12 days when just four hours before her family planned to pull the plug, she opened her eyes.

"She just magically woke up. Literally four hours before we moved to take her off life support," her overjoyed son, Ryan Roberts, recalled that Dec. 22 awakening at a press conference Thursday.

I am sorry but I do not have the answers. I am still masticating over what he told me. Is it possible that with a new body not bound to this planet we will have access to all of time? I don’t know. I suspect as much but frankly do not know.

None of us have the answers - but we do get clues.

I saw the future once - something that didn’t happen until three weeks later. It was specific and significant and I told someone about it before the event actually happened. Ever since I wondered how this could have happened - how time works...how did I know this one thing that hadn’t yet happened.

I suppose it’s just not for me to know.
