A Mother's Crossing

~My Mother's Crossing~

-------------------------

My Mother had been battling kidney cancer for some time, and was in the hospital after surgery.  

I stayed by her side until she passed, holding her hand and talking to her.

  Towards the end she was in a coma, (She had a cardiac arrest and they had brought her back, but she was in a coma, and hadn't opened her eyes for at least 24 hours).  

Making the decision to pull the plug didn't come easy. I however, looked at her and could tell that breathing machines or not, she wasn't going to long  for this world.  The Doctors gave her no hope for a meaningful recovery after everything that was going on with her. 

 However she was my best friend, and saying good bye was incredibly hard. Plus she had wanted everything done so she could stay in this world. 

 I remember talking to her telling her it was OK to let go, that we would be alright, and I would look after my family, my daughter, my Aunt and my brothers etc.  

She continued to linger....I really didn't know why, and the nurse suggested that I tell her that I would be OK as well.  It wasn't until I did this that I believe she could let go. Even though she lasted sometime after the life sustaining drugs and the mechanical breathing tube were stopped... She wasn't able to respond to either me or the nurse being in the room.  

Suddenly, she opened her eyes really big and was so obviously starring at something in the room and to the right.... neither us us could see. 

 It brought up goose bumps. The hair on the back of my neck stood up.

 The nurse commented on it as well.  Within a moment she was gone. I don't know how many of you have actually been with a person who has passed at the moment of death but it was such an honor to be with her at this time.

  As a nurse, I've been privileged enough to be present in both births and deaths, and I can tell you there is something almost magical about both. 

 It was obvious when she finally did pass, that the spirit had passed, and it was only a shell of who she was, that had stayed behind.

I had a dream shortly thereafter that my Uncle Bill, who had passed before my Mom had been there  beckoning my mother, and had been there to escort my Mom to the other side.  The dream gave me a little peace for some reason.

I continue to dream about her frequently, and I truly believe I will see her again someday...I know she is with me.  My daughter (this Website owner) was incredibly close to her as well...and has had many dreams about her as well.  

  I know that many psychics believe that when you dream of a person who have passed on, that this is a form of communication with the departed, and I really do believe this.

One Body...Two Places At Once...A Talk With Grandfather's Spirit

.... ONE BODY... TWO PLACES ... AND WORDS ARE SPOKEN TO THE DEAD....

-------------------------

It was in the year of 1996.

(New year was just a few days left)

I don't know much about the time, but it was dark and my Mother was busy in the kitchen, so I think she was cooking..

We where watching TV, some soap my Sister always wanted to see.

Suddenly, my Sister got off the seat and started to walk.

She walked from from left to right, right to left, from window to window.....

She didn't talk, she just walked...

She did it for I think, 2 minutes, and came back to the seat.

She didn't watch the soap anymore.

 Her eyes were wide open, and I remember my Father was talking to her.

 He was asking,

"What's going on?".

 But there was no answer from my Sister.

After about 15 minutes, my Sister "came back". 

Then, my parents asked her,

 "What was that?" "What were you doing?" 

Before my Sister could answer, the phone started ringing. 

At that point my Sister stood up!

She screamed, shouted, and cried for them NOT to pick up the phone!!

She was mad, and angry, at everyone who would pick up the phone!!

But everyone knows how parents are.  They just picked up the phone.

It was a message that my Grandfather died. 

Just 20 minutes ago.

Well, this is what happened to my Sister, at the moment she started to walk...

Her body was at home, with me and my parents.

 I did see her! 

But her mind was in the hospital with my Grandfather.

They even had a chat with each other. 

I don't know what it was about.

 My Sister never told anyone about it. She just said that they talked.

And after the chat between my Sister and Grandfather, my Grandfather died in my Sister's arms!!!

How weird is that!!??

She was at 2 places at the same time!

Until the day of today, we never talk about it, just because my Sister is afraid of it. 

She can't accept paranormal things.

I see now paranormal stuff with her 8 years old son.

But that's an whole different story.

DEATH AND BIRTH: MY MOM'S EXPERIENCE

~*~RACHEL LIVINGSTON'S MOTHER~*~

~*~HOLLY FEDERLE'S EXPERIENCE~*~

~*~ THIS IS HOLLY'S AMAZING, EXPERIENCE WITH DEATH AND BIRTH~*~

-------------------------
 This story is very well known to you, Rachel Livingston, as we have talked about it many times.

You and I had a very difficult birth.You were in distress, and I was losing blood, and near death. 

 By the time you were born, the cord was around your neck, and you weren't breathing.
  I saw you being whisked over to the incubator, and watched as they resuscitated  you.  

I saw the Dr working on me..

It was all very clear in my mind except for the fact that when I told your Father about it, he said it was impossible that I could have seen any of it as my
eyes were rolled back in my head and near death.
I started to think about the whole experience because I knew I had seen it so clearly,

and I suddenly realized that I was seeing it from the ceiling over my body, and I could actually see everything that was going on in the room to the minute detail.......even my own body laying on the table. 

I guess that's what you would call an out of body experience.  

In my  51 years of life, I have had many paranormal experiences, and as my daughter has said we come from a long line of mediums on my mother's side.  

I've lived in a haunted house.......

I was haunted by my deceased Father for a long time, and have had many unusual experiences.

 My daughter, the author of this website is quite psychic as well. 
 I consider it an honor and a gift.  

I have found recently my half sisters on my fathers side, with whom I had never met, AND they are all into the paranormal...mediums clairvoyants  and such...How Strange is That?  I definitely believe that it runs in families and how could we miss! 

 I have many more stories to share. and will along the way.....but for now, well, let's leave it at that.
