afterlife

Jan I am so sorry to read about the loss of your daughter. I am so glad you have found some comfort in your visits with Tina. Ruth as you know I already know about your loss. I think you are both so brave, the loss of a child is something I hope I will never have to experience and my heart goes out to you both.

I have had experiences of afterlife. I felt my mother-in-law was around us for a month or so after she died. One funny story I don't know whether I have said this one before - on Terry's last visit to her she asked for some brandy - as she was in hospital he said he couldn't take any in. After she died we were on our way back from ordering the flowers when we heard bottles chinking in the boot of the car - there were no bottles in our car! Terry said she was telling him off for not letting her have her last glass of her favourite tipple!

My sister choked at the dinner table when she was expecting my youngest nephew and she "went" for a moment, I was hysterical but she came back. She said she had gone down a corridor where someone asked her if she wanted to carry on or go back and she chose to come back.

I saw my Dad several times after he died. As I was driving through Bewdley I kept seeing him from the corner of my eye but when I turned my head he had gone. Then I had a dream and we were walking down the river together - he said not to grieve for him as now he could walk (he had MS and had been disabled for the last 18 years of his life).
