The Visible Wound
The rash was unremarkable — contact dermatitis, I assumed. But when I asked her about her life, about her stress, about what was really going on, she started to cry. And I learned that sometimes the most important diagnosis is the one that isn't on the skin.

Unexplained does not automatically mean supernatural
Calling an event unexplained describes the limits of the available record. It does not identify a cause. Missing data, rare physiology, memory effects, coincidence, and spiritual interpretations may all remain in consideration.
The most durable writing preserves uncertainty instead of using it as proof. Readers can hold personal beliefs while still asking what was measured, what was inferred, and what information would change the conclusion.
Five checkpoints for this route
