PeachesDixon I understand your thinking.
My beloved partner always said ‘ if you are here now then it means you must have always been here and so always will be’ in some form or another.
It was quite simplistic but I’m being to think he had a point x
I am a bit like you but I also was convinced that my husband had come to me it felt so real like I wasn’t dreaming. Not long after he had died I’felt’ Him in bed with me . It was like he was comforting me . Then earlier this year I was involved in a traffic accident and ended up in hospital overnight and he was there with me. We even had a conversation where he said that I would be okay. I treasure these memories and truly hope they were real. Maybe there are things beyond our understanding so just accept and believe we will be together again one day. Sending hugs.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Cruiser. I now believe that was your husband coming back to comfort you. I would never have believed it possible and I would have put it down to an overactive imagination but after what happened to me the other night I have changed the way I think about it.
If I had been half asleep or dreaming about my wife I would put it down to that but I was wide awake and it came completely out of the blue.
It was real, it was Lillian. I have never imagined things and always had a logical explanation for this kind of thing but this has convinced me that there must be more to our existence than the here and now.
It has given me great comfort and hope that we will be together again in some way.
Sending hugs to you too, Dave. x
Yes, I felt the same thing in bed after my husband died, it felt very real.
Dave, there are many things we believe in that we can not touch. Love is one.
We did not just happen by chance. We were intended by God, perfect creations, unique, irreplaceable, and unrepeatable.
You now have proof of afterlife. It is real. Be grateful that you have been given this gift or proof. Your wife was telling you to not despair, she is in spirit as you will be one day too. And, you will see her again when you leave this Earthly world.
Love.
BTW, a couple of days after my husband died, I was in the back yard with our dog. He was eye deep in a hole he was digging and I was watching - numb. I heard my husband call the dog’s name - clear as a bell.
My dog heard it too. He startled, raised his head, looked to our balcony (which is where my husband would stand to watch us play in the yard), then at me and cocked his head sideways.
I could have brushed it off to my head playing games, but my dog heard him too - so . . .
My friend came over to visit, she asked my husband to send us a sign that he was okay “drop something on our head or rip something off the wall - anything”. A few minutes later a spice rack fell off the wall in my pantry. When she got home, one of her shelves had fallen too. We said “ok, we got it, thanks”.
While getting dressed for my husband’s funeral, I tried on a blouse with a necklace which he didn’t care for. The blouse wouldn’t do, so I was to change it but keep the necklace. I asked him to help me decide on the shirt, as I could feel him right beside me. As I took the necklace off, it broke in my hands.
I laughed, “okay, not the necklace, got it”, then a blouse I haven’t worn in 20 years came into focus from it’s hiding spot. It was perfect. “Thank you, Baby, I knew you would dress me nice”.
It was 3:33pm when I decided my husband’s nap was too long and went upstairs to check on him. The night before had been a very bad one for him with a lot of pain. He had finally gotten relief with meds and finally fell asleep at 6am.
He was gone.
His sports watch beeps for 20 seconds at 3:33p everyday. (now 2:33p with the change in time). Coincidence? I don’t think so. There is no reason for my husband to set his alarm for 3:33pm and it had never gone off before.
The night of the day my husband died, I was inconsolable. I turned to his Bible for guidance and asked God to let me know that he was in Heaven. I shook it, tossed it up and let it fall open on our bed, eyes closed. It opened to the exact passage I chose for our wedding. Coincidence?
My precious and only niece began dating a new young man the Friday before my husband died. I met him 2 weeks ago, he has my husband’s nickname - an unusual one.
Signs, signs, everywhere a sign.
Just be open to the signs from beyond. They fall like rain.
Ask, and you shall receive. Seek, and you shall find. Knock, and the door will be open to you. (2,000 years and still the truth)
Love.
Me too Keith68
To feel something from my Mum however small would be a great comfort
This happened to me but a few weeks before my husband passed xx i had got up to check on him downstairs, went back to bed, felt him get in bed, touch my tummy and say im here with you xx it was comforting and surreal at the same time xx I even got up to check as I thought he had passed. After that he declined massively and was quite horrible toward me xx I believe he left me that night xx I so wish it would happen again xx take comfort from it xx a remarkable experience xx
I too was a sceptic when it came to spiritual beings/spirits before my partner passed away.
It had been about a week after he had passed, and i had never said anything out loud to him. One night i decided to ask him a question, and i said if you are around and are ok, can you just send me a sign, anything.
That night at around 00:25 my fire alarm went off, but not a normal fire alarm sounds slow beeps. I woke abruptly to it, and was shaking. I went to investigate, no fire, checked the cooker nothing. Now i have a new build property and this had never happened ever before. The batteries were fine, and it also runs off the main electrics. And its one of 3 alarms, the one near my bedroom was the only one that went off. As i come up my stairs my son was stiring and i asked him if he had herd it, he said yes, and asked me if i had seen a big bright light too. He explained it like a woosh to his face, and it woke him up.
I didnt make a big deal about it, just told him no i never saw that. And he went back to sleep.
Now this could have been a coincidence, but there is also a story around fire alarms with my partner, and he had a massive sense of humour, i believe it was him letting me know he was ok, and also including a little joke along the way.
When my dear wife died in August, it was after two years of pain and the cancer had metastasised to her brain. She was not herself - and became very angry and disagreeable a lot of the time. She was also confused, and seemed to be losing faith in her religion - Christianity. I’m agnostic, but we’ve always respected our differences there, and I know how important her faith was to her. In the end she was unconscious with two syringe drivers to fight her pain, sometimes nearly surfacing, other times totally out of it, other times calling for her father. On the night she died, she opened her eyes and I waved to her and tried to smile, while crying my head off. After she’d passed, she looked dreadful. She’d developed a chest infection and her mouth hung open in death. But when I went back into her room half an hour later, her mouth was closed and she was smiling. I swear this is true, and the smile stayed. My step-father came round to see me the following day, and I took him in to pay his last respects to her, and he said: ‘She looks so happy!’ I hope this was her sign that, at last, she is alright again, no pain, no confusion.
Thanks PeachesDixon. I believe that now. I have been trying to convince myself for days that I imagined it and I can’t.
It was comforting when it happened but when I thought about it afterwards it scared the wotsit out of me because it defied everything I believed in.
Now I have accepted that it was Lillian I am at peace with what happened and feel almost blessed in a way that she was able to come back in the way she did.
It’s still shaken me to the core though.
On Thurs Nov 14th a picture from my iPhone picture library of the headstone on both my parents’ grave ( 50 years old headstone) appeared .On Nov 15th it would have been my mother’s birthday. On Fri 15th Nov a picture came up on my iPhone of my wife ( deceased 22nd May 2024) with an aunt and uncle of mine which I took several years earlier. All 3 of them were smiling and very happy. Was I being contacted ?
I know exactly what you mean i have also had this experience more than once when i mention it to my son he looks at me rather strange but like you i know what i feel and hear and yes i do believe this can happen my wife has been gone just over 2 years one night i was feeling unwell when i heard her voice say are you okay made me shudder witha chill
I mentioned what happened to a couple of people and I could tell they were just humouring me.
I can’t say I would be any different if it hadn’t happened to me but now it has I know it can happen.
It gave me a chill afterwards as well Bill2.
Yes i know but it certainly had me thinking i always hear different noises in the bedroom during the night take care
I am a total non believer but i have experienced this sensation at least 6 times i could feel the pressure on me and movement for a number of minutes then release. I dont have a clue what this is but i have found comfort in this.
Thanks Billyh67. That is exactly what it I experienced.
It was either a spiritual manifestation by my wife or a physiological response to a form of PTSD.
Either way, I have decided to accept it happened by whatever means and take great comfort from it.
Just had the shock of my life !
I was only saying on here the other day I wish I had a sign from my Mum
Today I believe I had it just sat in the lounge a Robin that has been around a few days came into my house into the lounge landed the flew in and out of the lounge door I followed it upstairs into the bathroom where it just perched on the curtain rail very calm as you can see
From sheer panic to feeling very overwhelmed I do believe this is the sign I was wanting
It is indeed your sign. Enjoy it.
Love.
I’ve had another visit since this one at my lounge window
