My Cosmic Son: A Tale of Epic Forgiveness

By Brad Ryder

Years ago while in college, Gavin Walcott allowed his girlfriend to terminate a pregnancy for which he was responsible. He suppressed his dismay at the time, then suffered only occasional bouts of guilt for the next twenty-five years. Now, as he turns fifty, a midlife crisis has Gavin mired in remorse and regret. He becomes determined to bring back the child he never knew. Such a plan would seem irrational, except he knows a friend with the capability of making it happen. When he travels to the past and succeeds in preventing the abortion, Gavin experiences a disorienting side effect, waking up to find he's his own child. My Cosmic Son tells the life and alternate life story of how one man embodies two realities, only one of which will be allowed to continue. Trying to decide who will survive leads him to some epiphanies about how his choices have affected the people around him.
